Answer:

3.0 cm

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the mirror equation:

$\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{p}+\frac{1}{q}$

where

f is the focal length of the mirror

p is the distance of the object from the mirror

q is the distance of the image from the mirror

In this problem we have:

f = 1.5 cm is the focal length of the mirror (positive for a concave mirror)

p = 3.0 cm is the distance of the object from the mirror

Therefore, the distance of the image is:

$\frac{1}{q}=\frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{p}=\frac{1}{1.5}-\frac{1}{3.0}=\frac{1}{3.0}\\\rightarrow q=3.0 cm$

And the positive sign means that the image is real.

(The second part of the exercise is just the description of the image of the first exercise).

Prove that young modulus of elasticity and pressure have the same dimensions

ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

The dimensions of Young's Modulus, as well as material stress, are the same as pressure because stress is like pressure in a solid, except with some key differences that warrant the use of different terminology.

How much heat (in kJ) is needed to convert 866 g of ice at −10°C to steam at 126°C? (The specific heats of ice and steam are 2.0

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

2671.3 kJ

Explanation:

m = 866 g at - 10 degree C converts into steam at 126 degree C.

The following steps are there

(1) ice at - 10 degree C converts into ice at 0 degree C

H1 = m x specific heat of ice x ΔT

H1 = 866 x 2.03 x 10 = 17579.8 J

(ii) ice at 0 degree C converts into water at 0 degree C

H2 = m x Latent heat of fusion = 866 x 334 = 289244 J

(iii) water at 0 degree C converts into water at 100 degree C

H3 = m x specific heat of water x ΔT

ΔH3 = 866 x 4.186 x 100 = 362507.6 J

(iv) water at 100 degree C converts into steam at 100 degree C

H4 = m x Lateant heat of vaporisation

H4 = 866 x 2260 = 1957160 J

(v) seam at 100 degree C converts into steam at 126 degree C

H5 = m x specific heat of steam x ΔT

H5 = 866 x 1.99 x 26 = 44806.84 J

The total heat required is

H = H1 + H2 + H3 + H4 + H5

H = 2671298.24 J = 2671.3 kJ

Determine the number of atoms per unit cell in a (a) face-centered cubic, (b) body- centered cubic, and (c) diamond lattice.

fredd [130]

Answer:

a) 4

b) 2

c) 8

Explanation:

In a cubic lattice, each atom of the vertex is shared among other 8 unit cells, so the atoms on the vertex contribute to 1/8 to a given unit cell.

a) Ina face-centered cubic we have 8 atoms on the vertex and one in each face, which is shared with another unit cell, so it contribute to 1/2

Therefore, the total atoms are:

8*(1/8) + 6*(1/2) = 4

b) In the body centered cubic structure, the centered atom is not shared with another cell, therefore it contribute to 1 to the given cell:

The number of atoms per unit cel is:

8*(1/8) + 1 = 2

c) The diamond lattice is similar to the face-centered cubic lattice but it contains two identical atoms per lattice point.

Therefore it must contain twice atoms than the face-centered cubic lattice:

that is, it has 8 atoms per unit cell

Two children fight over a 200g stuffed bear. The 25kg boy pulls to the right with a 15N force and the 20kg girl pulls to the lef

Sati [7]

The masses of the children may not be taken into account since these are towards the ground and directly affecting the bear. The net force is the difference of the forces since they are acting on opposite sides. The magnitude of this net force is equal to 2N and the sign is to where the greater force is from. Therefore, the force is directed towards the left.
