The equation of the constructor of the geomeric optics allows to find the results for the distance and size of the objects are:

  • Distance from the mirror to the object is:  p = 13.3 cm
  • The height of the object is: h = 1.33 cm

The equation of the constructor of geometric optics describes the position of objects and their images for mirrors and lenses.

       \frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{p} + \frac{1}{q}  

Where f is the focal length, p and q are the distances to the object and the image, respectively.

They indicate the focal length f = 10 cm, the distance to the image q = 40 cm, that the height s h ’=  4 cm.  In the attachment we see a scheme of the system.

Let's find the distance to the object.

        \frac{1}{p\frac{x}{y} } = \frac{1}{f} - \frac{1}{q} \\\frac{1}{p}  = \frac{1}{10} - \frac{1}{40}\\\frac{1}{p} =    0.075

       p = 13.3 cm

The magnification in the ratio of image size to object size.  The image is inverted so its height is negative.

        m = \frac{h'}{h} = - \frac{q}{p}\\h = - \frac{p}{q} \ h'\\h = - \frac{13.3}{40}\ (-4)

        h = 1.33 cm

In conclusion using the equation of the constructor we can find the results for the distance and size of the objects are:

  • Distance from the mirror to the object is  13.3 cm
  • The height of the object is 1.33 cm

Which trophic level has the least available energy in kilojoules in this food web?
insens350 [35]

The highest trophic level has the least available energy in kilojoules.

Even though the food web is not shown in the question, but we know that energy decreases steadily as it is passed on from one trophic level to the next according to the second law of thermodynamics.

Energy enters into the system from the sun. The primary producers utilize this energy to produce food. As plants are eaten by animals, this energy is transferred along the food web an diminishes at each higher trophic level.

At the highest trophic level, the the least available energy in kilojoules in this food web is found.

You already have to momentum of walking forward, and going back and forth are the same distance. If you go back then you would have to stop, turn and walk, but if you go forward you just have to walk.
