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

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

What water pressure must a pump that is located on the first floor supply to have water on the thirteenth of a building with a p
irga5000 [103]

The water pressure on the first floor must be 455 PSI in order to push the water to the 13th floor at the given pressure.

The given parameters;

  • <em>Pressure on the 13 th floor, P₁ = 35 PSI</em>
  • <em>Distance between each floor, d = 10 ft</em>

The vertical pressure of the water is calculated as follows;

P = \rho gh\\\\\frac{P}{h} = \rho g\\\\\frac{P}{h} = k\\\\\frac{P_1}{h_1} = \frac{P_2}{h_2} \\\\

The vertical height of the first floor from the 13th floor = 130 ft

The vertical height of the 13 ft floor = 10  ft

P_1 = \frac{P_2 h_1}{h_2} \\\\P_1 = \frac{35 \times 130}{10} \\\\P_1 = 455 \ PSI

Thus, the water pressure on the first floor must be 455 PSI in order to push the water to the 13th floor at the given pressure.

Explain why you can only change one variable in an experiment
ohaa [14]
The purpose of an experiment is to LEARN the EFFECT of something.

The way you do that is to CHANGE the thing and see what happens.

You can change as many things as you want to.  But If you change
TWO things and observe the result, then you don't know which one
of them caused the effect you see. 

Or maybe BOTH of them working together caused it.  You don't know. 

So your experiment is not really much good.  You need to do it again.

Julli [10]

Answer:

13.78 mT

Explanation:

The peak voltage ε = ωNAB where ω = angular speed of coil = 1500 rpm = 1500 × 2π/60 rad/s = 50π rad/s = 157.08 rad/s, N = number of turns of coil = 250, A = area of coil = πr² where r = radius of coil = 10 cm = 0.10 m,

A = π(0.1 m)² = 0.03142 m² and B = magnetic field strength

So,

B = ε/ωNA  

substituting the values of the variables into the equation given that ε = 17 V

So, B = ε/ωNA

B = 17 V/(157.08 rad/s × 250 turns × 0.03142 m²)

B = 17 V/(1233.8634 rad-turns-m²/s)

B = 0.01378 T

B = 13.78 mT

How does the surface tension of water compared with the surface tension of most other liquids?
Anuta_ua [19.1K]
Surface tension is the direct measure of the cohesive forces between liquid molecules that allows them to form "film", making it more difficult to move an object through the liquid surface. Compared to other known liqiuds, the surface tension of water is much greater.
