An object is placed 18 cm in front of spherical mirror.if the image is formed at 4cm to the right of the mirror, calculate it's

ivolga24 [154]

1) Focal length

We can find the focal length of the mirror by using the mirror equation:
$\frac{1}{f}= \frac{1}{d_o}+ \frac{1}{d_i}$ (1)
where
f is the focal length
$d_o$ is the distance of the object from the mirror
$d_i$ is the distance of the image from the mirror

In this case, $d_o = 18 cm$ , while $d_i=-4 cm$ (the distance of the image should be taken as negative, because the image is to the right (behind) of the mirror, so it is virtual). If we use these data inside (1), we find the focal length of the mirror:
$\frac{1}{f}= \frac{1}{18 cm}- \frac{1}{4 cm}=- \frac{7}{36 cm}$
from which we find
$f=- \frac{36}{7} cm=-5.1 cm$

2) The mirror is convex: in fact, for the sign convention, a concave mirror has positive focal length while a convex mirror has negative focal length. In this case, the focal length is negative, so the mirror is convex.

3) The image is virtual, because it is behind the mirror and in fact we have taken its distance from the mirror as negative.

4) The radius of curvature of a mirror is twice its focal length, so for the mirror in our problem the radius of curvature is:
$r=2f=2 \cdot 5.1 cm=10.2 cm$

1) A negatively charged ion is chloride

2) Moving from left to right, valence electrons increase by one.

3) The period number gives information about how many energy levels it has

4) Fluorine has a charge of 1–

5) Potassium and iodine form an ionic bond

The periodic table is an arrangement of elements into groups and periods based on their periodic properties.

In the periodic table, elements are arranged in groups and periods. There are 18 groups and 8 periods.

Chlorine is in group 17, there have seven outermost electrons hence the chlorine atom needs only one more electron in order to attain a stable octet. This is done by accepting one electron to form the negatively charged chloride ion.

As we move from one period to another, one extra electron is added to the outermost shell of elements. Hence, the valence electrons increases by one.

The period to which an element belongs shows you the number of shells or energy levels in the atom of that element.

Fluorine is in group 17. One electron is needed to achieve a stable octet. When an atom accepts one electron, its charge is 1–.

Bonding based on ionic charges occurs between metals and nonmetals. Potassium is a metal of group 1 and iodine is a non metal of group 17 hence they can bond together based on their ionic charges.

The magnetic field produced by a long straight current-carrying wire is

alexdok [17]

Answer:

proportional to the current in the wire and inversely proportional to the distance from the wire.

Explanation:

The magnetic field produced by a long, straight current-carrying wire is given by:

$B=\frac{\mu_0 I}{2 \pi r}$

where

$\mu_0$ is the vacuum permeability

I is the current intensity in the wire

r is the distance from the wire

From the formula, we notice that:

- The magnitude of the magnetic field is directly proportional to I, the current

- The magnitude of the magnetic field is inversely proportional to the distance from the wire, r

Therefore, correct option is

proportional to the current in the wire and inversely proportional to the distance from the wire.
