Explanation:

It is given that,

Radius of curvature of the mirror, R = 20 cm

So, focal length of the mirror, f = -10 cm

(i) Object distance, u = -40 cm

Using the mirror's formula as :

\dfrac{1}{v}+\dfrac{1}{u}=\dfrac{1}{f}

v is the image distance

\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{f}-\dfrac{1}{u}

\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{-10}-\dfrac{1}{-40}

v = -13.33 cm

Magnification of mirror is calculated as :

m=\dfrac{-v}{u}

m=\dfrac{-(-13.33)}{(-40)}    

m = -0.33

Since, the magnification is negative, image is real and inverted.

(ii) Object distance, u = -20 cm

Using the mirror's formula as :

\dfrac{1}{v}+\dfrac{1}{u}=\dfrac{1}{f}

v is the image distance

\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{f}-\dfrac{1}{u}

\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{-10}-\dfrac{1}{-20}

v = -20 cm

Magnification of mirror is calculated as :

m=\dfrac{-v}{u}

m=\dfrac{-(-20)}{(-40)}    

m = -0.5

Since, the magnification is negative, image is real and inverted.

(iii) Object distance, u = -10 cm

Using the mirror's formula as :

\dfrac{1}{v}+\dfrac{1}{u}=\dfrac{1}{f}

v is the image distance

\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{f}-\dfrac{1}{u}

\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{-10}-\dfrac{1}{-10}

v = infinity

Magnification of mirror is calculated as :

magnification = infinity

Hence, this is the required solution.

Answered

Explanation:

The radius of curvature of the mirror R = 20 cm

then the focal length f = R/2 = 10 cm

(a) From mirror formula

 1/f = 1/di + /1do

then the image distance

    di = fd_o / d_o - f

  = (10)(40) / 40-10

 = 30.76 cm

since the image distance is positive so the image is real

ii) when the object distance d_0=20 cm

 di = 10×20/ 20-10

= 20

Hence, the image must be  real

iii)when the object distance d_0 = 10

di = 10×10 / 10-10 =  ∞ (infinite)

the image will be formed at ∞

here also image will be real but diminished.

The escape velocity is defined to be the minimum speed with which an object of mass m must move to escape from the gravitational
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

v = √2G M_{earth} / R

Explanation:

For this problem we use energy conservation, the energy initiated is potential and kinetic and the final energy is only potential (infinite r)

        Eo = K + U = ½ m1 v² - G m1 m2 / r1

        Ef = - G m1 m2 / r2

When the body is at a distance R> Re, for the furthest point (r2) let's call it Rinf

       Eo = Ef

       ½ m1v² - G m1 M_{earth} / R = - G m1 M_{earth} / R

      v² = 2G M_{earth} (1 / R - 1 / Rinf)

If we do Rinf = infinity     1 / Rinf = 0

       v = √2G M_{earth} / R

      Ef = = - G m1 m2 / R

The mechanical energy is conserved  

 

      Em = -G m1  M_{earth} / R

      Em = - G m1  M_{earth} / R

     R = int        ⇒  Em = 0

A cell phone uses a 3. 0 V battery. The circuit board it uses needs a 0. 05 A current. What size resistor is needed to generate
Marta_Voda [28]

The value of resistance will be 60 ohms. Resistance is the opposition force offered to the flow of electric current. The ratio of the voltage to the electric current passing through the wire.

<h3>What is a resistor?</h3>

A resistor is a two-terminal passive electrical component that acts as a circuit element by implementing electrical resistance.

Resistors are used to limit current flow, alter signal levels, divide voltages, bias active devices, and complete transmission lines in electronic circuits.

The given data in the problem is;

V is the voltage =  3. 0 V

I is value of electric current=  0. 05 A

R is the resistance=?

According to ohm's law, the potential difference between the two ends of the conductor is equal to the product of electric current and the resistance generated.

So from the ohm law;

V= IR

\rm R = \frac{V}{I} \\\\ \rm R = \frac{3}{0.05} \\\\ \rm R =60 \ ohm

Hence the value of resistance will be 60 ohms.

To learn more about the resistor refer to the link;

A certain radar installation tracks airplanes by transmitting electromagnetic radiation of wavelength 4.0 cm.
Anna35 [415]

the wavelength equation is

speed (of light in this case)= wavelength (m) x frequency

3x10^8m/s / .07m = f

frequency= 4 285 714 286 hertz

 

 

 

b) Total distance= 4.8 km (4,800 m)

Speed = 3x10^8 m/s

d=st

t= d/s

t= 4,800 m/3x10^8m/s
