The focal length for a spherical convex mirror is –20 cm. What is its radius of curvature?

Physics

4 0

Answer:

40 cm

Explanation:

The focus of a spherical convex mirror is the point at which the rays of an object converge in the infinite, it is also the point at which an object must be placed so that its image is formed in the infinite. The distance from the focus to the origin is called the focal length and is called f. It is related to the radius of the mirror, R, according to:

f=-\frac{R}{2}

rewriting for R:

R=-2f=-2*-20cm=40 cm.

allsm [11]

Answer:

lift force = 0.213 N

Drag force =2*10^-3 N

Explanation:

Given: velocity v = 10 m/s

w = 100 rev/sec

diameter d = 3cm

density D = 1.2kg/m3

lift force =16/3*(pi^2*d^3*w*D*v)

Substituting the values into the equation, we obtain

lift force = 0.213 N

Drag force = C*D*A*v/2

where C = 0.5

substituting the values into the equation again, we have

Drag force =2*10^-3 N

If gas costs $3.65 per gallon at a local service station, how many cubic feet of gas can a customer buy with $40 ?
svet-max [94.6K]
Hi, thank you for posting your question here at Brainly. 

For consistency you must convert gallons to cubic foot. The conversions are:

7.481 gal = 1 ft3

Then, $3.65 per gallon becomes $27.3 per ft3. If you buy $40 worth of gas, you get $40/$27.3 = 1.46 ft3 of gas. 

If you can travel for 4 miles per ft3, then with the amount of gas you have, you can travel up to 5.85 miles.

(4 miles/ft3)*(1.46 ft3) = 5.85 miles
