Answer:

The focal length of the concave mirror is -15.5 cm

Explanation:

Given that,

Height of the object, h = 20 cm

Radius of curvature of the mirror, R = -31 cm (direction is opposite)

Object distance, u = -94 cm

We need to find the focal length of the mirror. The relation between the focal length and the radius of curvature of the mirror is as follows :

R = 2f

f is the focal length

f=\dfrac{R}{2}

f=\dfrac{-31}{2}

f = -15.5 cm

So, the focal length of the concave mirror is -15.5 cm. Hence, this is the required solution.

What happens to a light ray passing through the center of a lens?
Readme [11.4K]
Theoretically, the light ray will not change direction. The center of a lens is called the optical center. If the ray of light hits the lens even just a little bit off center, the light ray is refracted. Refraction happens when the incident and exit angles of the ray are different. The optical center is guaranteed to not have any difference in angle, which allows the light ray to pass through directly without changing direction.

A bus travels a distance of 120 km with a speed of 40km per hour and returns with a speed of 30km per hour calculate the average
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

35 km/hr

Explanation:

Average speed = (total of the speed)/(the sets of speeds given)

Direction does not matter in this instance since speed is only magnitude,

Average speed = (30 + 40)/2

Average speed = 70 ÷ 2

= 35 km/hr

A metal container with the oil weigh
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

16 kg

Explanation:

M - container

m - oil mass

by definition of density ,

relative density is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of water.

relative density = density/ density of water

density of oil = 1.2*1000 kgm⁻³  = 1200 kgm⁻³

1 Litre =10⁻³ m³

oil volume = 80 *10⁻³ m³

mass of oil = density * volume

                   = 1200*80*10⁻³

                   = 96 kg

Mass of container + mass of  oil =112

mass of container = 112 - 96

                              = 16 kg
