The image is at 2.5 m behind the mirror (virtual image)

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using the mirror equation:

$\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{d_o}+\frac{1}{d_i}$

where

f is the focal length of the mirror

$d_o$ is the distance between the object and the mirror

$d_i$ is the distance between the image and the mirror

For a plane mirror, the focal length is infinite:

$f=\infty$

And in this problem, the distance of the object from the mirror is

$d_o = 2.5 m$

Substituting and solving for $d_i$ , we find the location of the image:

$0=\frac{1}{d_o}+\frac{1}{d_i}\\d_i = -d_o = -2.5 m$

And the negative sign means that the image is located behind the mirror, so it is virtual.

Suppose that the dipole moment associated with an iron atom of an iron bar is 2.8 × 10-23 J/T. Assume that all the atoms in the

masya89 [10]

To solve this exercise it is necessary to apply the equations related to the magnetic moment, that is, the amount of force that an image can exert on the electric currents and the torque that a magnetic field exerts on them.

The diple moment associated with an iron bar is given by,

$\mu = \alpha *N$

Where,

$\alpha =$ Dipole momento associated with an Atom

N = Number of atoms

$\alpha$ y previously given in the problem and its value is 2.8*10^{-23}J/T

$L = 5.8cm = 5.8*10^{-2}m$

$A = 1.5cm^2 = 1.5*10^{-4}m^2$

The number of the atoms N, can be calculated as,

$N = \frac{\rho AL}{M_{mass}}*A_n$

Where

$\rho =$ Density

$M_{mass} =$ Molar Mass

A = Area

L = Length

$A_n =$ Avogadro number

$N = \frac{(7.9g/cm^3)(1.5cm)(5.8cm^2)}{55.9g/mol}(6.022*10^{23}atoms/mol)$

$N = 7.4041*10^{23}atoms$

Then applying the equation about the dipole moment associated with an iron bar we have,

$\mu = \alpha *N$

$\mu = (2.8*10^{-23})*(7.4041*10^{23})$

$\mu = 20.72Am^2$

PART B) With the dipole moment we can now calculate the Torque in the system, which is

$\tau = \mu B sin(90)$

$\tau = (20.72)(2.2)$

$\tau = 45.584N.m$

<em>Note: The angle generated is perpendicular, so it takes 90 ° for the calculation made.</em>

A psychologist who would claim that a client's personal experience and viewpoint influence behavior more than events in reality would probably use cognitive psychology mixed with developmental aspects to explain the behavior and personality of a person.
