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.

Answer:

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.

Vlad [161]

B. Energy

A power company charges its customers for electricity based upon B. Energy.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Kilo-watt Hours (kWh) is the unit that measures the electricity consumption of customers. Since Power is defined as the rate at which electrical energy is transferred by an electrical circuit per unit time,

P = \frac{E}{t} \\E= P\times t

If energy is transmitted at a constant rate over a period of time, the total energy in kilowatt hours is the product of power in kilowatts(kW) and time in hours (h)

1\ kWh = 3.6\times 10^6\ Joules

An 80-kg hiker climbs to the top of a tall hill and builds up 470,000 J of gravitational potential energy. How high did the hike
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

599 meters is the answer rounded to the nearest whole number and 599.489795918 meters is the complete answer

Explanation:

to find gravitational potential energy you multiply mass x acceleration due to gravity (always 9.8 on earth) x hight

since we know the gravitational potential energy and want to find out the hight, we take the gravitational potential energy (470,000) and divide it by the product of acceleration due to gravity x mass (9.8 x 80)

so how high the hiker climbed is equal to 470,000 divided by (9.8 x 80)

hight = 470,000 / (9.8 x 80)

hight = 470,000 / 784

hight = 599.489795918 meters

as for rounding, if the decimal is less than 5 you round "down" and keep the current whole number, if the decimal is 5 or greater you round "up" and add 1 to get your new number
