Answer:

u = 18 cm

Explanation:

given,

radius of curvature = 60 cm

magnification of mirror = 2.5

distance of object  = ?

R = 2 f

f = R/2

f = 60/2 = 30 cm

m = -\dfrac{v}{u}

2.5 = -\dfrac{v}{u}

v = -2.5 u

now,

Using mirror formula

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

\dfrac{1}{30} = \dfrac{1}{-2.5u} + \dfrac{1}{u}

\dfrac{1}{30} = \dfrac{0.6}{u}

u = 0.6 x 30

u = 18 cm

distance of object be equal to u = 18 cm

Which quantities define momentum?
grigory [225]

Answer:

A. How much matter an object has, plus the magnitude and direction  of its motion

Explanation:

Momentum is defined as the product of mass by velocity, in the international system of measurements (SI) momentum has the following Units [kg*m/s].

P = m*v

where:

P = momentum Lineal [kg*m/s]

m = mass [kg]

v = velocity [m/s]

Therefore the answer is A) How much matter an object has, plus the magnitude and direction  of its motion

B.A certain piece of copper wire is determined to have a mass of 2.00 g per meter.
masha68 [24]

Answer:

14cm

Explanation:

Mass per gram of the piece of wire;

         2g of the wire is found in 1m

 Since

       100cm  = 1m;

 

So;

       100cm of the wire contains 2g of the wire

To provide 0.28g

 Since;

        2g of wire is made up of 100cm

      0.28g of wire will be contained in \frac{100 x 0.28}{2}   = 14cm

14cm of the wire will contain 0.28g
