How does a plane mirror work

Physics
1 answer:
Nastasia [14]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Plane mirrors work because the light rays create a virtual image behind the mirror. Light rays from the object strike the mirror and reflect according to the law of reflection. ... Therefore, our eye and brain track the light rays backward to a position from which they appear to have come.

Can someone please help me with science.
alekssr [168]

Answer:

The answers to your questions are given below

Explanation:

22. The energy of an electromagnetic wave and it's frequency are related by the following equation:

E = hf

Where:

E => is the energy

h => is the Planck's constant

f => is the frequency

From the equation i.e E = hf, we can conclude that the energy of a wave is directly proportional to it's frequency. This implies that an increase in the frequency of the wave will lead to an increase in the energy of the wave and also, a decrease in the frequency will lead to a decrease in the energy of the wave.

23. Gamma ray and radio wave are both electromagnetic waves. All electromagnetic waves has a constant speed of 3×10⁸ m/s in space.

Thus, gamma ray and radio wave have the same speed in space.

A spring on a horizontal surface can be stretched and held 0.5 m from its equilibrium position with a force of 60 N. a. How much
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

a)1815Joules b) 185Joules

Explanation:

Hooke's law states that the extension of a material is directly proportional to the applied force provided that the elastic limit is not exceeded. Mathematically;

F = ke where;

F is the applied force

k is the elastic constant

e is the extension of the material

From the formula, k = F/e

F1/e1 = F2/e2

If a force of 60N causes an extension of 0.5m of the string from its equilibrium position, the elastic constant of the spring will be ;

k = 60/0.5

k = 120N/m

a) To get the work done in stretching the spring 5.5m from its position,

Work done by the spring = 1/2ke²

Given k = 120N/m, e = 5.5m

Work done = 1/2×120×5.5²

Work done = 60× 5.5²

Work done = 1815Joules

b) work done in compressing the spring 1.5m from its equilibrium position will be gotten using the same formula;

Work done = 1/2ke²

Work done =1/2× 120×1.5²

Works done = 60×1.5²

Work done = 135Joules

A wrench is placed at 30 cm in front of a diverging lens with a focal length of magnitude 10 cm. What is the magnification of th
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

0.25

Explanation:

Magnification = image distance/object distance

mag = v/u.................. Equation 1

Given: f = -10 cm ( diverging lens) u = 30 cm.

Where can calculate for the value of v using

1/f = 1/u+1/v

make v the subject of the equation

v = fv/(u-f)..................... Equation 2

Substitute into equation 2

v = -30(10)/(30+10)

v = -300/40

v = -7.5 cm.

substituting into equation 1,

mag = 7.5/30

mag = 0.25

hence the magnification of the wretch = 0.25
