Answer:

The power of the mirror in diopters is 58.8 D

Explanation:

Given;

radius of curvature of the spoon, R = 3.4 cm = 0.034 m

The focal length of a mirror is given by;

f = \frac{R}{2} \\\\f = \frac{0.034}{2} \\\\f = 0.017 \ m

The focal length of the mirror is 0.017 m

(b) The power of the mirror is given by;

P = \frac{1}{f}

where;

P is the power of the mirror

f is the focal length

P = \frac{1}{f}\\\\P= \frac{1}{0.017}\\\\P = 58.8 \ D

Thus, the power of the mirror in diopters is 58.8 D

The force that attracts earth to an object is equal to and opposite the force that earth exerts on the object. Explain why earth
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

Because of heavy mass

Explanation:

When force acts on a body it tends to accelerate the body. The acceleration produced in the body depends on two things:

1). Magnitude of force

2). Mass of the body

F= ma

⇒ a = F/m  

As the force exerted on earth and another object are the equal in magnitude but opposite in direction. This forces will accelerate the object toward the earth but can't accelerate the earth as earth has very high mass.

a = F/m

This force tends to accelerate the earth but but due to earth's inertia the earth does not accelerate.

A 1.0 kg block is attached to an unstretched
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

Change in  potential energy of the block-spring-Earth

system between Figure 1 and Figure 2 = 1 Nm.

Explanation:

Here, spring constant, k  = 50 N/m.

given block comes down eventually 0.2 m below.

here, g = 10 m/s.

let block be at a height h above the ground in figure 1.

⇒In figure 2, potential energy of the block-spring-Earth

system = m×g×(h - 0.2) + 1/2× k × x². where, x = change in spring length.

⇒ Change in  potential energy of the block-spring-Earth

system between Figure 1 and Figure 2 = (m×g×(h - 0.2)) - (1/2× k × x²)

              =  (1×10×0.2) - (1/2×50×0.2×0.2) = 1 Nm.

Plants cause weathering, too. a seed that falls into a crack in a rock may grow there. growing roots may push on and enlarge the
Helga [31]

The process which involves plants to cause weathering to a seed that falls into a crack in a rock therefore, breaking apart the rock is called Mechanical weathering.

<h3>Mechanical weathering</h3>

This is defined as the set of weathering processes that break apart rocks into particles (sediment) through physical processes. The most common form of mechanical weathering is the freeze-thaw cycle. Water seeps into holes and cracks in rocks then the water freezes and expands, therefore making the holes larger eventually making the rock split apart.
