Answer:

(a) convex mirror

(b) virtual and magnified

Explanation:

The having mirror is convex mirror.

distance of object, u = - 20 cm

magnification, m = 1.4

(a) As the image is magnified and virtual , so the mirror is convex in nature.

(b) The image is virtual and magnified.

Use the formula of magnification.

$m =-\frac{v}{u}\\1.4=-\frac{v}{-20}\\v =28 cm$

Use the mirror equation, let the focal length is f.

$\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{v}+\frac{1}{u}\\\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{28}+\frac{1}{20}\\\frac{1}{f}=\frac{28+20}{560}\\f=11.67cm$

Radius of curvature, R = 2 f = 2 x 11.67 = 23.3 cm

Answer:

ρ = 830.32 kg/m³

Explanation:

Given that

Oil head = 12.2 m

h= 12.2 m

Pressure P = 1.013 x 10⁵ Pa

Lets take density of the liquid =ρ

The pressure due to liquid P given as

P = ρ g h

Now by putting the all values in the above equation

1.013 x 10⁵ Pa = ρ x 10 x 12.2 ( take g =10 m/s²)

ρ = 830.32 kg/m³

Therefore the density of oil is 830.32 kg/m³

The moon orbits the earth at a distance of 3.85 x 10^8 m. Assume that this distance is between the centers of the earth and the

Inga [223]

Answer:

27.5 days

0.92 month

Explanation:

$r$ = radius of the orbit of moon around the earth = $3.85\times10^{8} m$

$M$ = Mass of earth = $5.98\times10^{24} m$

$T$ = Time period of moon's motion

According to Kepler's third law, Time period is related to radius of orbit as

$T^{2} = \frac{4\pi ^{2} r^{3} }{GM}$

inserting the values, we get

$T^{2} = \frac{4(3.14)^{2} (3.85\times10^{8})^{3} }{(6.67\times10^{-11})(5.98\times10^{24})}\\T = 2.3754\times10^{6} sec$

we know that

1 day = 24 hours = 24 x 3600 sec = 86400 s

$T = 2.3754\times10^{6} sec \frac{1 day}{86400 sec} \\T = 27.5 days$

1 month = 30 days

$T = 27.5 days \frac{1 month}{30 days} \\T = 0.92 month$
