Answer:

f =-20 cm

Explanation:

Given that,

The magnification of a spherical mirror, m = -1

The image distance, v = 40 cm (for negative magnification)

The magnification of a concave mirror is negative. The mirror showing -1 magnification is a concave mirror.

Let f be the focal length of the mirror. We know that,

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

Object distance, u = -40 cm

Using mirror's formula i.e.

\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{u}+\dfrac{1}{v}\\\\f=\dfrac{1}{\dfrac{1}{-40}+\dfrac{1}{-40}}\\\\f=-20\ cm

So, the focal length of the mirror is 20 cm.

Why should you never use the coarse adjustment on high power
umka21 [38]

Answer:

First, the image moves in and out of focus too quickly, so that it is difficult to precisely adjust the focus. Second, you run the risk of crashing the objective into the slide. Use the coarse focus only with the 4x low power objective. You can use the fine focus knob with all objectives.

earnstyle [38]

Average speed = (total distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)

Ian's total distance covered = (2km + 0.5km + 2.5km) = 5 km.

His time to cover the distance = 3 hours.

Average speed = (5 km) / (3 hrs)

Average speed = (5/3) (km/hr)

<em>Average speed = 1.67 km/hr</em>
