An optical engineer wishes to specify the properties of a concave makeup mirror, which is supposed to provide an upright and enl

arged image of the user's face. The engineer wants a magnification factor of two, and she assumes that the user's face will be 30 cm in front of the mirror. What radius of curvature should be specified (in cm) for the fabrication of these mirrors?

Answer:

radius of curvature is 1.2 m

Explanation:

given data

distance u = 30 cm

to find out

radius of curvature

solution

we know radius of curvature is double of focal length

so we find focal length

lens formula for focal length

1/f = 1/u + 1/v     ..............................1

so here from magnification

M = - u /v

2 = - u /v )

v = -2u = -2(30)

v =- 60 cm

so from equation 1

1/f = 1/u + 1/v

1/f = 1/30 + 1/-60

f = 60.02 cm

so R = 2f

R = 2( 60.02)

R = 120.04 cm

so radius of curvature is 1.2 m

What atoms are not grouped in magnetic domains
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

Electrons are teeny tiny magnets. They have a north and a south pole, too, and spin around an axis. This spinning results in a very tiny but extremely significant magnetic field. Every electron has one of two possible orientations for its axis.In most materials, atoms are arranged in such a way that the magnetic orientation of one electron cancels out the orientation of another. Iron and other ferromagnetic substances, though, are different (ferrummeans iron in Latin). Their atomic makeup is such that smaller groups of atoms band together into areas called domains, in which all the electrons have the same magnetic orientation. Below is an applet that shows you how these domains respond to an outside magnetic field.

Drupady [299]

The force of gravity F_g will act downwards.

Normal force F_N will act upwards equal to the force of gravity.

A force due to uniform acceleration F_a will act upwards to move the elevator upwards.

Thus, figure E is the correct answer.

What occurs when the pitch increases and the sound source is in motion? explain your answer.
Hoochie [10]
If you're listening to a sound that has a steady pitch, and suddenly the
pitch goes up, then you know that two things could have happened:

EITHER ...

-- The person or other source making the sound could have
raised the pitch of the sound being produced.

OR ...

-- The person or other source making the sound could have
started moving toward you.

OR ...

-- both.

Even if the pitch of the sound leaving the source doesn't change,
you would still hear it increase if the source starts moving toward
you.  That's the so-called "Doppler effect".
