What is the magnification when an object is placed at 2f from the pole of the convex mirror? 

Physics
1 answer:
Gekata [30.6K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Linear magnification = 1/3

Explanation:

Given:

Convex mirror

Object's distance from pole = 2f

Find:

Linear magnification

Computation:

Object distance, u = −2f

So,

1/v + 1/u = 1/f

1/v + 1/(-2f) = 1/f

1/v = 1/f + 1/2f

BY taking LCM

1/v = 3 / 2f

v = 2f / 3

Magnification, M = -v / u

So,

Magnification, M = (2f / 3) / 2f

Magnification, M = 2f / 6f

Magnification, M = 2 / 6

Linear magnification = 1/3

A substance is round in one container and has a volume of one liter. In a much larger container, the substance is rectangular bu
insens350 [35]

Answer:

Liquid

Explanation:

Solids do not change shape, so we know it's not a solid.

Gases take the shape of their container, but they also expand to the volume of the container.  The substance in this problem has the same volume in different size containers, so we know it's not a gas.

The substance must be a liquid.  It takes the shape of its container but has a constant volume.

It takes 3 minutes to make toast in a 1500 watt toaster. Calculate how much work is done by the toaster.
REY [17]

Answer: 2.7 x 10^5 joules

Explanation:

Given that:

Time taken = 3 minutes

convert time in minutes to seconds

(Since 1 minute = 60 seconds

3 minutes = 3 x 60 = 180 seconds)

Power of toaster = 1500 watt

Work done by the toaster = ?

Recall that power is the rate of work done per unit time

i.e Power = work/time

work = Power x Time

Work = 1500 watt x 180 seconds

Work = 270000J

Place the result in standard form

270000J = 2.7 x 10^5J

Thus, 2.7 x 10^5 joules of work is done by the toaster.

What is the role of neutrons in the nucleus. ​
Serjik [45]

Answer:

<em><u>To be neutral</u></em>

Explanation:

Neutrons are electrically neutral but contribute to the mass of a nucleus to nearly the same extent as the protons. Neutrons can explain the phenomenon of isotopes (same atomic number with different atomic mass). The main role of neutrons is to reduce electrostatic repulsion inside the nucleus.
