We can rearrange the mirror equation before plugging our values in.
1/p = 1/f - 1/q.
1/p = 1/10cm - 1/40cm
1/p = 4/40cm - 1/40cm = 3/40cm
40cm=3p <-- cross multiplication
13.33cm = p
Now that we have the value of p, we can plug it into the magnification equation.
M=-16/13.33=1.2
1.2=h'/8cm
9.6=h'
So the height of the image produced by the mirror is 9.6cm.
True ! Attending the funeral of a foreign leader IS fulfilling the role of head of state.
Answer:
the claim is not valid or reasonable.
Explanation:
In order to test the claim we will find the maximum and actual efficiencies. maximum efficiency of a heat engine can be found as:
η(max) = 1 - T₁/T₂
where,
η(max) = maximum efficiency = ?
T₁ = Sink Temperature = 300 K
T₂ = Source Temperature = 400 K
Therefore,
η(max) = 1 - 300 K/400 K
η(max) = 0.25 = 25%
Now, we calculate the actual frequency of the engine:
η = W/Q
where,
W = Net Work = 250 KJ
Q = Heat Received = 750 KJ
Therefore,
η = 250 KJ/750 KJ
η = 0.333 = 33.3 %
η > η(max)
The actual efficiency of a heat engine can never be greater than its Carnot efficiency or the maximum efficiency.
<u>Therefore, the claim is not valid or reasonable.</u>
Answer:
Answer in Explanation
Explanation:
Whenever we talk about the gravitational potential energy, it means the energy stored in a body due to its position in the gravitational field. Now, we know that in the gravitational field the work is only done when the body moves vertically. If the body moves horizontally on the same surface in the Earth's Gravitational Field, then the work done on the body is considered to be zero. Hence, the work done or the energy stored in the object while in the gravitational field is only possible if it moves vertically. This vertical distance is referred to as height. <u>This is the main reason why we require height in the P.E formula and calculations.</u>
The derivation of this formula is as follows:
Work = Force * Displacement
For gravitational potential energy:
Work = P.E
Force = Weight = mg
Displacement = Vertical Displacement = Height = h
Therefore,
P.E = mgh
