Where do incident rays that are parallel to the principal axis converge to after reflecting off a concave mirror?

Physics
1 answer:
morpeh [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

At focus

Explanation:

A concave mirror is converging in nature. In a mirror, concave in nature, the rays which are parallel to the principal axis are supposed to be coming from very large distances or we assume the source to be placed at infinity for such rays which are parallel to the principal axis.

These rays,  parallel to the principal axis, coming from infinity, converges at the focus of the mirror concave in nature after reflecting from the concave mirror

"The work done on an ideal gas system in an isothermal process is -400 J. What is the change in internal (thermal) energy of the
Archy [21]

Answer:

zero

Explanation:

Work done = - 400 J

In an isothermal process, the temperature remains constant. So, according to the first law of thermodynamics

dQ = dU + dW

As the temperature remains constant and the change in internal energy is the function of change in temperature, here change is temperature is zero so the change in internal energy is also zero.

You want to move a 4- kg bookcase to a different place in the living room. If u push with a force of 65 n and the bookcase accel
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

1.65

Explanation:

The equation of the forces along the horizontal direction is:

F-F_f = ma (1)

where

F = 65 N is the force applied with the push

F_f is the frictional force

m = 4 kg is the mass

a=0.12 m/s^2 is the acceleration

The force of friction can be written as F_f = \mu R (2), where

\mu is the coefficient of kinetic friction

R is the normal force exerted by the floor

The equation of forces along the vertical direction is

R-mg=0 (3)

since the bookcase is in equilibrium. Substituting (2) and (3) into (1), we find

F-\mu mg = ma

And solving for \mu,

\mu = \frac{F-ma}{mg}=\frac{65-(4)(0.12)}{4(9.8)}=1.65

A drowsy cat spots a flowerpot that sails first up and then down past an open window. The pot was in view for a total of 0.51 s,
Gelneren [198K]

The pot spends T = 0.185s going up and 0.185s going down past the window. 
The average speed passing by the window is 2.20 m/0.185s = 11.89 m/s. 
During passage, the pot increases speed by T*g = 0.185*9.81 = 1.815 m/s 
The speed is therefore 12.80 m/s at the bottom of the window and 10.98 m/s at the top of the window. 

The 10.98 m/s speed at the top of the window allows it to rise another 10.98^2/(2g)= 6.15 m past the top of the window
