Rama09 [41]3 years ago

Answer:

Magnification, m = -0.42

Explanation:

It is given that,

Height of diamond ring, h = 1.5 cm

Object distance, u = -20 cm

Radius of curvature of concave mirror, R = 30 cm

Focal length of mirror, f = R/2 = -15 cm (focal length is negative for concave mirror)

Using mirror's formula :

\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{u}+\dfrac{1}{v}, f = focal length of the mirror

\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{f}+\dfrac{1}{u}

\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{-15}+\dfrac{1}{-20}

v = -8.57 cm

The magnification of a mirror is given by,

m=\dfrac{-v}{u}

m=\dfrac{-(-8.57)}{-20}

m = -0.42

So, the magnification of the concave mirror is 0.42. Thew negative sign shows that the image is inverted.

Which statement is incorrect when considering gases? 1. Gas molecules are in constant, random motion at room temperature 2. The
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

4

Explanation:

For gases :

1. The motion of gases molecule is in random manner at the room temperature.

2.The distance between the gas molecule is more and that is why gas can be compress.

3.The attraction force between the gas molecule is negligible or we can say that there is no any force between the gas molecules.that is why gas can be filled in the container.But the motion of the gas molecule does not stop they are still moving inside the container but the space for movement become less.When a gas container heated then the container start to vibrate because the movement of the gas molecule.

So the option 4 is incorrect.

Lelechka [254]

Answer:

1 joule = 0.737 foot-pound

Joule is the unit of work.

1 J = 1 N·m

In SI units

1 J = 1 kg· m/s²

0.737 foot-pound is the amount of work to raise 0.737 pounds one foot or raising one pound to 0.737 ft.

If a girl is standing in front of a smooth surface from which a sound is reflected, the girl may hear
gavmur [86]
Near the surface of reflection, reflected wave may interfere with incident wave leading to production of constructive and as well as destructive interference. This in turn, can result to resonance as well as enhancement of the sound intensity as the waves of reflection adds to incident wave. Therefore, the girl would higher intensity of reflected waves as compared to incident waves.

Therefore, statement A is correct.
