The mirror formula for curved mirrors is:
where
f is the focal length of the mirror
is the distance of the object from the mirror
is the distance of the image from the mirror
The sign convention that should be used in order to find the correct values is the following:
-
: positive if the mirror is concave, negative if the mirror is convex
-
: positive if the image is real (located on the same side of the object), negative if it is virtual (located on the opposite side of the mirror)
Answer:

Answer:
A volume of a cubic meter of water from the surface of the lake has been compressed in 0.004 cubic meters.
Explanation:
The bulk modulus is represented by the following differential equation:
Where:
- Bulk module, measured in pascals.
- Sample volume, measured in cubic meters.
- Local pressure, measured in pascals.
Now, let suppose that bulk remains constant, so that differential equation can be reduced into a first-order linear non-homogeneous differential equation with separable variables:
This resultant expression is solved by definite integration and algebraic handling:
The final volume is predicted by:
If 
, 
and 
, then:
Change in volume due to increasure on pressure is:

Explanation:
Show that the motion of a mass attached to the end of a spring is SHM
Consider a mass "m" attached to the end of an elastic spring. The other end of the spring is fixed
at the a firm support as shown in figure "a". The whole system is placed on a smooth horizontal surface.
If we displace the mass 'm' from its mean position 'O' to point "a" by applying an external force, it is displaced by '+x' to its right, there will be elastic restring force on the mass equal to F in the left side which is applied by the spring.
According to "Hook's Law
F = - Kx ---- (1)
Negative sign indicates that the elastic restoring force is opposite to the displacement.
Where K= Spring Constant
If we release mass 'm' at point 'a', it moves forward to ' O'. At point ' O' it will not stop but moves forward towards point "b" due to inertia and covers the same displacement -x. At point 'b' once again elastic restoring force 'F' acts upon it but now in the right side. In this way it continues its motion
from a to b and then b to a.
According to Newton's 2nd law of motion, force 'F' produces acceleration 'a' in the body which is given by
F = ma ---- (2)
Comparing equation (1) & (2)
ma = -kx
Here k/m is constant term, therefore ,
a = - (Constant)x
or
a a -x
This relation indicates that the acceleration of body attached to the end elastic spring is directly proportional to its displacement. Therefore its motion is Simple Harmonic Motion.
