Answer:

The answer is the option D, Force = 15 N

Explanation:

In the image attached, we can see a free body diagram and applying the second law of Newton we have to find the force F in the equation given.

A concave spherical mirror has a radius of curvature of magnitude 20.0 cm. (a) Find the location of the image for object distanc
Tems11 [23]

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.

Retrograde. Planets seem to move forward and then backward sometimes. This is really because we pass them as we move in our orbit but astronomers wanted to try to describe the solar system with earth at the center so elaborate models were employed.

Which of the following are steps for balancing chemical equations?
AveGali [126]

Answer:

C. Recheck the numbers of each atom on each side of the equation

to make sure the sides are equal.

D. Choose coefficients that will balance the equation

Explanation:

In balancing of chemical equation, the number of atoms on both sides must be equal in adherence to the law of conservation of mass.

Using the method of inspection, the equation is first observed to know the relationship between the combining atoms and the resulting ones.

After observing the reaction, put a coefficient that will balance the equation. Then recheck the number of each atom on both side of the equation. One can repeat the process till the equation is balanced.

Why does a straw look broken viewed in a glass of water?
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

This is due to refraction of light

Explanation:

When a straw is placed in a glass it appears to be broken as a result of refraction of light on the air-water interface.

Since, the refractive index of water is more than that of glass.

Also, water is denser than air, which means light travels slower in water than in air.

Most importantly, When light travels from rarer to denser medium it bents towards the normal and deviates from its original path which explains the broken view of straw in a glass of water.
