How long is the image of a metrestick formed by a plane mirror?

Physics
1 answer:
Zinaida [17]3 years ago
7 0

A plane mirror doesn't change the apparent size or shape of things.

-- If the meter stick is held parallel to the mirror, or is lying on the mirror,
then its image in the mirror is 1 meter long.

-- If the meter stick is held perpendicular to the mirror, or is standing on
the mirror, or pointing directly at it, then its image in the mirror has no length.

False, because the ions of the solar wind collide with atoms of oxygen and nitrogen from the Earth's atmosphere. The energy released during these collisions causes an aurora.

Blocks A and B are identical metal blocks. Initially block A is neutral, and block B has a net charge of 7.0 nC. Using insulatin
maxonik [38]

Answer:

Block A will have a final charge of 3.5nC.

Explanation:

This is because at the point of contact with Block B, which is electrically positive, the electrons in Block A will be attracted to the excess 'unpaired' protons in block B. Hence, the electrons will flow into Block B causing unpaired protons to remain in Block A.

This process is called Charging by Conduction.

This charging process will continue until the charges are evenly distributed between both objects.

In case you're wondering, "<em>how's all this possible within a few seconds</em>?", remember that electrons travel very fast and so, this process is a rather rapid one.

What causes a objects to move or stay still? claim and evidence
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

A force

Explanation:

A push or a pull is an example of a force and can cause an object to speed up, slow down, etc..  Newton's laws tell us that 1- an object will not change its motion unless a force acts on it 2- the force on an object is equal to its mass times its acceleration. 3- The third law states that for every action (force) in nature there is an equal and opposite reaction.. However, forces like gravity and friction can resist movement.
