The rays __________
a. will not cross each other after reflecting from a concave mirror.
b. will cross at the center of curvature.
c. will cross at the point where the principal axis intersects the mirror.

A concave mirror is an example of curved mirrors. So that the appropriate answer to the given question is option D. The rays will cross at the focal point.

A concave mirror is a type of mirror in which its inner part is the reflecting surface, while its outer part is the back of the mirror.  This mirror reflects all parallel rays close to the principal axis to a point of convergence. It can also be referred to as the converging mirror.

In this type of mirror, all rays of light parallel to the principal axis of the mirror after reflection will cross at the focal point.

Therefore, the required answer to the given question is option D. i.e The rays will cross at the focal point.

Which of the following are true? Select all that apply. The net electric field at any location inside a block of copper is zero
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

1) The net electric field at any location inside a block of copper is zero if the copper block is in equilibrium.

2) In equilibrium, there is no net flow of mobile charged particles inside a conductor.

3) If the net electric field at a particular location inside a piece of metal is not zero, the metal is not in equilibrium.

Explanation:

1) and 3) A block of copper is a conductor. The charged particles on a conductor in equilibrium are at rest, so the intensity of the electric field at all interior points of the conductor is zero, otherwise, the charges would move resulting in an electric current.

2) The charged particles on a conductor in equilibrium are at rest.

Probably not what you were expecting... the average bottle of water is 24 ounces. 5 milliliters is about the amount of water in a spoon. Hope this helps!!!

2. A body is thrown vertically upward with a speed of 100 m/s.The time taken to be
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

b. 20 sec

Explanation:

y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ g t²

0 = 0 + (100) t + ½ (-10) t²

0 = 100t − 5t²

0 = t (100 − 5t)

t = 0, t = 20

The body lands after 20 seconds.
