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

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

solution:

dT/dx =T2-T1/L

&

q_x = -k*(dT/dx)

<u>Case (1)  </u>

dT/dx= (-20-50)/0.35==> -280 K/m

 q_x  =-50*(-280)*10^3==>14 kW

Case (2)

dT/dx= (-10+30)/0.35==> 80 K/m

 q_x  =-50*(80)*10^3==>-4 kW

Case (2)

dT/dx= (-10+30)/0.35==> 80 K/m

 q_x  =-50*(80)*10^3==>-4 kW

Case (3)

q_x  =-50*(160)*10^3==>-8 kW

T2=T1+dT/dx*L=70+160*0.25==> 110° C

Case (4)

q_x  =-50*(-80)*10^3==>4 kW

T1=T2-dT/dx*L=40+80*0.25==> 60° C

Case (5)

q_x  =-50*(200)*10^3==>-10 kW

T1=T2-dT/dx*L=30-200*0.25==> -20° C
