An object is placed 18 cm in front of spherical mirror.if the image is formed at 4cm to the right of the mirror, calculate it's

ivolga24 [154]

1) Focal length

We can find the focal length of the mirror by using the mirror equation:
$\frac{1}{f}= \frac{1}{d_o}+ \frac{1}{d_i}$ (1)
where
f is the focal length
$d_o$ is the distance of the object from the mirror
$d_i$ is the distance of the image from the mirror

In this case, $d_o = 18 cm$ , while $d_i=-4 cm$ (the distance of the image should be taken as negative, because the image is to the right (behind) of the mirror, so it is virtual). If we use these data inside (1), we find the focal length of the mirror:
$\frac{1}{f}= \frac{1}{18 cm}- \frac{1}{4 cm}=- \frac{7}{36 cm}$
from which we find
$f=- \frac{36}{7} cm=-5.1 cm$

2) The mirror is convex: in fact, for the sign convention, a concave mirror has positive focal length while a convex mirror has negative focal length. In this case, the focal length is negative, so the mirror is convex.

3) The image is virtual, because it is behind the mirror and in fact we have taken its distance from the mirror as negative.

4) The radius of curvature of a mirror is twice its focal length, so for the mirror in our problem the radius of curvature is:
$r=2f=2 \cdot 5.1 cm=10.2 cm$

How are the magnetic domains of a magnet different from the domains of an ordinary piece of metal?

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

In a magnet, the domains all point in the same direction; in an ordinary piece of metal, they're all jumbled up.

Explanation:

In a magnet, the domains all point toward the north pole; in an ordinary piece of metal, they all point to the south pole.

You do 120 j of work while pulling your sister back on a swing, whose chain is 5.10 m long. you start with the swing hanging ver

Goryan [66]

The work done to pull the sister back on the swing is equal to the increase in potential energy of the sister:
$W= \Delta U = mg \Delta h$ (1)

where m is the sister's mass, g is the gravitational acceleration and $\Delta h$ is the increase in altitude of the sister with respect to its initial position.

By calling $\theta$ the angle of the chain with respect to the vertical, the increase in altitude is given by
$\Delta h = L - L \cos \theta = L(1 - \cos \theta)$ (2)
where L is the length of the chain.

Putting (2) inside (1), we find
$W= m g L (1 - \cos \theta)$
from which we can find the mass of the sister:
$m = \frac{W}{g L (1 - \cos \theta)} = \frac{120 J}{(9.81 m/s^2)(5.10 m)(1- \cos 32.0^{\circ})} =15.8 kg$
