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

Physics

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 force of 200N due South and another force of 300N due East each act on an object simultaneously.
dangina [55]

Answer:

a) 500

b)-500, north west

Explanation:

a) sum of F= F1+F2= 200+300= 500

b) sum of forces=0

so 200+300-500+0

A 100-meter sprint is a race using only the straight side of a racetrack. A 400-meter sprint is a race that makes one complete l
Shalnov [3]
Speed uses distance and velocity uses displacement in its calculation.

For 100 m race, distance = displacement. Hence speed = velocity

For 400m race, distance ≠ displacement. distance = 400m whereas displacement = 0m. Hence speed ≠ velocity

If the Speed limit is 60 mph, if I drive at a speed of 130 km/hr would I maybe get a ticket? (0.621 mi = 1km)
katovenus [111]

Explanation:

130km = (0.621 * 130) mi = 80.73 mi

So if you drive at 80.73 mph you will get a ticket for speeding over the limit.
