Answer:

45.8 cm

Explanation:

distance of object from the mirror is infinity

distance of image, v = 22.9 cm

The mirror is convex because it is used to see the distant objects and the image formed by the mirror is erect and small.

use mirror formula

Let f be the focal length of the mirror

1 / f = 1 / v + 1 / u

1 / f = 1 / 22.9  + 1 / ∞

f = 22.9 cm

radius of curvature = 2 x focal length

radius of curvature = 2 x 22.9 = 45.8 cm

Answer:

<em>A. The mirror is a convex mirror</em>

<em>B.  The radius of curvature of the convex mirror is -45.8 cm</em>

Explanation:

A. Obtaining the focal length

The radius of curvature is twice the size of the focal length, the focal length is related to object and image distance with the expression below;

1 / f = 1 / v + 1 / u ...................1

f is the focal length

Since the image (v) is formed at the back of the mirror v = -22.9 cm

u is the distance of the object from the mirror  =  ∞

Substituting into equation 1

1 / f = 1 / [(-22.9)  + 1 / ∞]

1/f = 1/(-22.9)

f = -22.9

Since the focal length is negative, the mirror is  convex.

B The radius of curvature

The radius of curvature is twice the focal length of the mirror and expressed  thus;

radius of curvature = 2 x focal length

r = 2 x f

r = 2 x (-22.9 cm)

 = -45.8 cm

Therefore the radius of curvature of the convex mirror is -45.8 cm

1-A train travels 100 km to reach town A in one hour and 15 min. The train stops at station A for 45 minutes. Then it travels 15
kirill [66]

Answer 1) : 62.5 km/hour is the average velocity of the train.

2) The final velocity of the car at the end of 75 m is 14.69 m/s

Explanation:

1) Displacement of the train = 100 km + 150 km = 250 km

Total time train took =1 hour 15 min+ 45 min + 2 hours = 240 min = 4 hours

Average velocity=\frac{Displacement}{time}=\frac{250 km}{4 hour}=62.5 km/h

62.5 km/hour is the average velocity of the train.

2) The acceleration of the car, a= 1.2 m/s^2

Distance covered by the car,s = 75 m

Initial velocity of the car ,v_i = 6 m/s

Final velocity of thre car ,v_f=?

Using third equation of motion:

v_{f}^2=v_{i}^2+2as=(6 m/s)^2+2\times 1.2 m/s\times 75 m=216 m^2/s^2

v_{f}=14.69 m/s

The final velocity of the car at the end of 75 m is 14.69 m/s
