If you place 48 cm object 15 m in front of a convex mirror of focal length 5 m, what is the magnification of the image?

Physics

Arisa [49]3 years ago

Answer:

m = 0.25

Explanation:

Given that,

Object distance, u = -15cm

Height of the object, h = 48

Focal length, f = cm

We need to find the magnification of the image.

Let v is the image distance. Using mirror's equation.

\dfrac{1}{v}+\dfrac{1}{u}=\dfrac{1}{f}\\\\\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{f}-\dfrac{1}{u}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{5}-\dfrac{1}{(-15)}\\\\=3.75\ cm

Magnification,

m=\dfrac{-v}{u}\\\\=\dfrac{-3.75}{-15}\\\\=0.25

Hence, the magnification of the image is 0.25.

A charge Q is uniformly spread over one surface of a very large nonconducting square elastic sheet having sides of length d. At
yaroslaw [1]

The electric field of a very large (essentially infinitely large) plane of charge is given by:

E = σ/(2ε₀)

E is the electric field, σ is the surface charge density, and ε₀ is the electric constant.

To determine σ:

σ = Q/A

Where Q is the total charge of the sheet and A is the sheet's area. The sheet is a square with a side length d, so A = d²:

σ = Q/d²

Make this substitution in the equation for E:

E = Q/(2ε₀d²)

We see that E is inversely proportional to the square of d:

E ∝ 1/d²

The electric field at P has some magnitude E. Now we double the side length of the sheet while keeping the same amount of charge Q distributed over the sheet. By the relationship of E with d, the electric field at P must now have a quarter of its original magnitude:

E_{new} = E/4

vitfil [10]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

From a Solenoid we know that a magnetic fiel is always inversely proportional to lenght L or BL = constant

B= frac{\mu_0}{2R}

As I is constant

\frac{B2}{B1} = \frac{R1}{R2}

B2 = 2mT*\frac{18}{21}

B2 = 1.714mT

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

2.72*10-3 Joules

Explanation:

From Newton's second law of motion

F=ma

\tau=I*\alpha

given

\tau= 0.11Nm\\\\I=0.034kgm^2\\\\t= 8s\\\\\alpha=?

\alpha =0.11/0.034\\\\\alpha=3.23 rad/s^2

the angular velocity is

\omega = \alpha/t\\\\\omega =3.23/8\\\\\omega =0.4 rad/s

KE= 1/2*I* \omega^2

KE=1/2*0.034*0.4^2\\\\KE=1/2*0.034*0.16\\\\KE=0.00272\\\\KE=2.72*10^-3J
