Answer:

The answer is true.

Explanation:

A ray coming from the object hits the surface of a mirror and then passes through focus point after reflection. Since the image is formed by the actual meeting of the reflected rays therefore it is called as real image. the direction of arrow will be upward.

Same is true if the object is placed at center of curvature the coming ray along the parallel axis passes through the focus and bends downward. The point where the two reflecting rays will meet is the point of image. And the direction of image arrow will be downward. In this case image is formed between F and C.

Answer:

TRUE

Explanation:

In mirrors, all rays of light incidented on a plane surface (mirror) and parallel to the principal axis converges at the focus of the mirror after reflection.

When forming the image of an object placed in front of a mirror (for example curved mirrors), there are two steps:

1. , all rays of light incidented on a plane surface (mirror) and parallel to the principal axis converges at the focus of the mirror after reflection.

2. Light rays from the object passes through the centre of curvature undeflected and reflect back on the same line of incidence

The two reflected rays from formed will intersect at a point and this point is where the image will be formed.

Based on the conclusion above the statement in question is TRUE i.e

an incident ray parallel to the axis and one through the focal point reflect and converge at the image.

Humans obtain energy in a number of different ways. About half of the electrical energy in the U.S. is generated by burning coal

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

C. Burning coal tends to harm the environment more than using solar panels.

Explanation:

When coal is burned, it reacts with the oxygen in the air. This reaction converts the stored potential energy, which turns into thermal energy, which is released as heat. But it also produces methane and carbon dioxide which is released into the air.

At standard temperature and pressure, carbon dioxide has a density of 1.98 kg/m3. What volume does 1.70 kg of carbon dioxide occ

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

<h2>volume= 0.85m^3</h2>

Explanation:

<em>The density of a substance is defined as the mass per unit volume of the substance, the unit is in kg/m^3 and it is represented by the greek letter rho</em>

Step one:

given data

we are told that the density of Co2= 1.98 kg/m3

and the mass of Co2 is= 1.70 kg

we know the relation between mass, volume and density is

$density=mass/volume$

make volume subject of formula we have

$volume=mass/density$

substitute we have

$volume=1.7/1.98\\\\volume= 0.85m^3$

Assuming a 8 kilogram bowling ball moving at 2 m/s bounces off a spring at the same speed that had before bouncing what is the a

Naya [18.7K]

a) 32 kg m/s

Assuming the spring is initially at rest, the total momentum of the system before the collision is given only by the momentum of the bowling ball:

$p_i = m u = (8 kg)(2 m/s)=16 kg m/s$

The ball bounces off at the same speed had before, but the new velocity has a negative sign (since the direction is opposite to the initial direction). So, the new momentum of the ball is:

$p_{fB}=m v_b =(8 kg)(-2 m/s)=-16 kg m/s$
