Describe the agronomic significance of the upper and lower plastic limits, and of the plasticity index?

GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:It shows the size of the range of the moisture contents at which the soil remains plastic. In general, the plasticity index depends only on the amount of clay present. It indicates the fineness of the soil and its capacity to change shape without altering its volume.

An upright object 2.80 cm tall is placed 16.0 cm away from the vertex of a concave mirror with a center of curvature of 24.0 cm.

horrorfan [7]

Answer:

f = 12 cm

Explanation:

Center of Curvature:

The center of that hollow sphere, whose part is the spherical mirror, is known as the ‘Center of Curvature’ of mirror.

The Radius of Curvature:

The radius of that hollow sphere, whose part is the spherical mirror, is known as the ‘Radius of Curvature’ of mirror. It is the distance from pole to the center of curvature.

Focal Length:

The distance between principal focus and pole is called ‘Focal Length’. It is denoted by ‘F’.

The focal length of the spherical (concave) mirror is approximately equal to half of the radius of curvature:

$f = \frac{R}{2}$

where,

f = focal length = ?

R = Radius of curvature = 24 cm

Therefore,

$f = \frac{24\ cm}{2}$

f = 12 cm

You plan to take your hair blower to europe, where the electrical outlets put out 240 v instead of the 120 v seen in the united

Dmitrij [34]

P = U × I
I = P / U = 1600W / 120V = 13.4A
P = 240V × 13.4A = 3216W

If your hair blower isnt rated for 220- 230V(this is the voltage in EU) you are most likely going to burn it.

An object is 39 cm away from a concave mirrors surface along the principles axis. If the mirrors focal length is 9.50 cm, how fa

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

12.6 cm

Explanation:

We can use the mirror equation to find the distance of the image from the mirror:

$\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{p}+\frac{1}{q}$

where here we have

f = 9.50 cm is the focal length

p = 39 cm is the distance of the object from the mirror

Solving the equation for q, we find:

$\frac{1}{q}=\frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{p}=\frac{1}{9.50 cm}-\frac{1}{39 cm}=0.080 cm^{-1}\\q = \frac{1}{0.080 cm}=12.6 cm$
