An object is placed a distance of 20 cm from a convex mirror of radius 40 cm. How far (in cm) is the image from the mirror?

Leona [35]4 years ago

Answer:

Be sure you understand two optics principles: the focal length of a convex mirror is NEGATIVE (by convention) and R / 2 = f.

Find f, take its negative, plug in the mirror equation and obtain Di = - 24 cm. This indicates that the image is virtual (as it should be in a convex mirror), is erect (as all virtual images are), is diminished (as it should be) and INSIDE the mirror as it should be.

Answer:

D &B

Explanation:

Using Fleming right hand rule that States that if the fore-finger, middle finger and the thumb of left hand are stretched mutually perpendicular to each other, such that fore-finger points in the direction of magnetic field, the middle finger points in the direction of the motion of positive charge, then the thumb points to the direction of the force

A skater of mass 60 kg has an initial velocity of 12 m/s. He slides on ice where the frictional force is 36 N. How far will the
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

d = 120 [m]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we must use the theorem of work and energy conservation. Where the energy in the final state (when the skater stops) is equal to the sum of the mechanical energy in the initial state plus the work done on the skater in the initial state.

The mechanical energy is equal to the sum of the potential energy plus the kinetic energy.  As the track is horizontal there is no unevenness, in this way, there is no potential energy.

E₁ + W₁₋₂ = E₂

where:

E₁  = mechanical energy in the initial state [J] (units of Joules)

W₁₋₂ = work done between the states 1 and 2 [J]

E₂  = mechanical energy in the final state = 0

E₁ = Ek = kinetic energy [J]

E₁ = 0.5*m*v²

where:

m = mass = 60 [kg]

v = initial velocity = 12 [m/s]

Now, the work done is given by the product of the friction force by the distance. In this case, the work is negative because the friction force is acting in opposite direction to the movement of the skater.

W₁₋₂ = -f*d

where:

f = friction force = 36 [N]

d = distance [m]

Now we have:

0.5*m*v² - (f*d) = 0

0.5*60*(12)² - (36*d) = 0

4320 = 36*d

d = 120 [m]

Q13. An electric bulb draws a current of 0.8A and works on 250V on the average 8 hours a day, if energy costs Rs 3 per kWh. Calc
olga_2 [115]
Using p=v * i
p=250 * 0.8=200w = 0.2kw
power consumed in a day=0.2 *8=1.6 kwh
for one month=1.6 * 30 =48kwh
monthly bills= 48 *3 = Rs 144

Faraday's law states that voltage cannot be increased by moving a magnet towards a coil.

Michael Faraday first discovered Electromagnetic Induction in 1830. His experiment that proved this the following: H<span>e moved a permanent magnet in and out of a coil or a single loop of wire.

In other words, the moving magnet produced a Voltage, and therefore a current. Michael Faraday’s famous law gives answer of the question of the dependence of the voltage: T<span>he magnitude of the voltage is proportional to the rate of change of the flux. It is false that the voltage can not be increased by moving a magnet towards a coil. It is increased.</span>
