b) The image is on the same side of the mirror as the object.
d) The image is upright.
What is magnification ?
Magnification is a quantification of comparing the size of the image with respect to the size of the object. It gives us information about the image in terms of how large or small is the image formed.
magnification = height of image / height of object
since , height of object is always positive as it is always kept upright hence , in order to make m positive , height of image need to be positive
also magnification = -(v/u )
v = image distance
u = object distance
u is always positive hence , in order to make m positive , v needs to be negative , which implies on the same side of the mirror as the object
correct option
b) The image is on the same side of the mirror as the object.
d) The image is upright.

The index of refraction is the ratio of the speed of light in a material to the speed of light in a vacuum.
The index of refraction of a material must be greater than 1.
The index of refraction is the ratio of the speed of light in a vacuum to the speed of light in the material.
The index of refraction of a material must be less than 1.
The index of refraction of water is less than the index of refraction of air.
Answer:
Option C and D only
Explanation:
Option A is incorrect because refractive index of a material is the ratio of speed of light in vacuum to the speed of light in a any given medium
Option B is correct as the speed of light in vacuum is always greater than the speed of light in any given medium.

Consider the system consisting of the box and the spring, but not Earth. How does the energy of the system when the spring is fully compressed compare to the energy of the system at the moment immediately before the box hits the ground? Justify your answer.
Answer:
the energy when it reaches the ground is equal to the energy when the spring is compressed.
Explanation:
For this comparison let's use the conservation of energy theorem.
Starting point. Compressed spring
Em₀ = K_e = ½ k x²
Final point. When the box hits the ground
Em_f = K = ½ m v²
since friction is zero, energy is conserved
Em₀ = Em_f
1 / 2k x² = ½ m v²
v = [tex]\sqrt{ \frac{k}{m} }[/tex] x
Therefore, the energy when it reaches the ground is equal to the energy when the spring is compressed.
Based on the law of conservation of energy, the elastic potential energy of the system when the spring is fully compressed is equal to the kinetic energy of the system at the moment immediately before the box hits the ground.
What is the energy in a compressed spring?The energy in a compressed spring is elastic potential energy given by the formula:
Ek = 1/2 Kx^2where
K is spring constant x is displacement of the springWhat is the kinetic energy of a body?The kinetic energy of a body is the energy the body the has due to it's motion.
Kinetic energy, KE, is givenby the formula below:
KE = 1/2mv^2How does the energy of the system when the spring is fully compressed compare to the energy of the system at the moment immediately before the box hits the ground?From the law of conservation of energy, the total energy in a closed system is conserved.
Based on this law, all the energy in the compressed spring is converted to the kinetic energy of the box just before it reaches the ground.
Therefore, the elastic potential energy of the system when the spring is fully compressed is equal to the kinetic energy of the system at the moment immediately before the box hits the ground.

In addition to producing images, ultrasound can be used to heat tissues of the body for therapeutic purposes. An emitter is placed against the surface of the skin; the amplitude of the ultrasound wave at this point is quite large. When a sound wave hits the boundary between soft tissue and bone, most of the energy is reflected. The boundary acts like the closed end of a tube which can lead to standing waves. Suppose 0.7 MHz ultrasound is directed through a layer of tissue at a bone 0.55 cm below the surface. Remember, sound waves in the body travel at 1540 m/s. Explain.
Answer:
ΔT = 4.058 10²⁰ [tex]\frac{S_o^2}{r^2 \ c_e}[/tex]
Explanation:
In this experiment the system can be approximated as a tube with one end open and the other closed.
The open end is where the ultrasound emitter is and the closed end where the limit between the tissue and the bone is, the length of the tube is L = 0.55 cm = 5.5 10⁻³ m
a node is formed at the closed end and a belly at the open end, so the resonance has the form
λ = 4L 1st harmonic
λ = 4/3 L third harmonic
λ = 4/5 L fifth harmonic
λ = 4L / (2n + 1) n = 0, 1, 2, (2n + 1)
This wave is a standing wave therefore energy density remains in place
P = 1/2 ρ v (w S₀)²
angular velocity is related to frequency
w = 2π f
we substitute
E = P = 2π² ρ v f² S₀²
if this energy per unit area is transformed into heat
E = m c_e DT
let's use the concept of density
ρ = m / V
m = ρ V
if there are no losses in the system
½ π² ρ v f² S₀² = ρ V c_e ΔT
ΔT = [tex]\frac{\pi ^2 \ v \f^2 S_o^2}{2V \ c_e}[/tex]
When analyzing this expression the temperature increase is
* quadratic at the frequency and maximum amplitude of the wave
* proportional to the speed of the wave in the tissue
* inversely proportional to tissue volume
we can approximate the volume of the tissue to the volume of a cylinder tube
V = π r² L
ΔT = [tex]\frac{\pi \ v \ f^2 S_o^2 }{r^2 \ L \ c_e}[/tex]
we calculate
ΔT = π 1450 (0.7 10⁶)² S₀² /( r² 5.5 10-3 c_e)
ΔT = 4.058 10²⁰ [tex]\frac{S_o^2}{r^2 \ c_e}[/tex]

Answer:
[tex]n=1.56\times 10^{17}[/tex] electrons
Explanation:
Given that,
Total charge = 9 mC = 0.009 C
0.009 C of charge passes through a wire in 3.6 s.
Let q' is the charge that passes through it in 10 s.
So,
[tex]\dfrac{0.009 }{3.6}=\dfrac{q'}{10}\\\\q'=\dfrac{0.009 \times 10}{3.6}\\\\q'=0.025\ C[/tex]
We know that,

The radius of curvature of both sides of a converging lens is 18 cm. One side of the lens is coated withsilver so that the inner surface is reflective. When light is incident on the uncoated side it passes throughthe lens, reflects off the silver coating, and passes back through the lens. The overall effect is that of amirror with focal length 5.0 cm. What is the index of refraction of the lens material
Answer:
n = 1.4
Explanation:
Given,
R1 = 18 cm, R2 = -18 cm
From lens makers formula
1/f = (n - 1)(1/18 + 1/18) = (n-1)/9
f = 9/(n-1)
Power, P = 1/f ( in m) = (n-1)/0.09
Now, this lens is in with conjunction with a concave mirror which then can be thought of as to be in conjunction with another thin lens
Power of concave mirror = P' = 1/f ( in m) = 2/R = 2/0.18 = 1/0.09
Net power of the combination = 2P + P' = 2(n-1)/0.09 + 1/0.09 = 1/0.05
n = 1.4
A microscope has an objective lens with diameter 1.04 cm. You wish to resolve an object 9.09 micrometers in size. You are using visible light of wavelength 562 nm. Using the Rayleigh criterion, what is the distance that the objective lens must be from the object to resolve it
Answer:
L = 0.1379 m = 13.79 cm
Explanation:
The Rayleigh criterion establishes that two objects are separated when the maximum of diffraction for slits coincides with the minimum of the other point, therefore the expression for the diffraction
a sin θ = m λ
the first zero occurs when m = 1
let's use trigonometry to find the angle
tan θ = y / L
as in these experiments the angles are very small
tan θ = sin θ /cos θ = sin θ
sin θ = y / L
we substitute
a y /L = λ
In the case of circular aperture the system must be solved in polar coordinates, for which a numerical constant is introduced
a y / L = 1.22 λ
L = a y / 1.22 λ
We search the magnitudes to the SI system
a = 1.04 cm = 1.04 10⁻² m
y = 9.09 10⁻⁶ m
λ = 562 10⁻⁹ m
let's calculate
L = [tex]\frac{1.04 \ 10^{-2} \ 9.09 \ 10^{-6} }{1.22 \ 562 \ 10^{-9} }[/tex]
L = 1.379 10⁻¹ m
L = 0.1379 m = 13.79 cm
Young's double slit experiment is one of the quintessential experiments in physics. The availability of low cost lasers in recent years allows us to perform the double slit experiment rather easily in class. Your professor shines a green laser (568 nm) on a double slit with a separation of 0.112 mm. The diffraction pattern shines on the classroom wall 3.5 m away. Calculate the fringe separation between the second order and central fringe.
Answer:
Y = 17.75 x 10⁻³ m = 17.75 mm
Explanation:
Using Young's Double Slit formula below:
[tex]Y = \frac{\lambda L}{d}[/tex]
where,
Y = fringe separation = ?
λ = wavelength = 568 nm = 5.68 x 10⁻⁷ m
L = distance between slits and screen = 3.5 m
d = slit separation = 0.112 mm = 1.12 x 10⁻⁴ m
Therefore,
[tex]Y = \frac{(5.68\ x\ 10^{-7}\ m)(3.5\ m)}{1.12\ x\ 10^{-4}\ m}[/tex]
Y = 17.75 x 10⁻³ m = 17.75 mm

For a damped oscillator with a mass of 360 g, a spring constant 130 N/m and a damping coefficient of 86 g/s, what is the ratio of the amplitude of the damped oscillations to the initial amplitude at the end of 11 cycles
Answer:
A/A₀ = 0.5106
Explanation:
To do this, we need to use several formulas and expressions. First, we need to know the period of time of the oscillator. This can be calculated using the following expression:
ω = 2π/T (1)
But angular frequency (ω) can be also be calculated using:
ω = √(k/m) (2)
Using (1) and (2), we can solve for the period T:
2π/T = √(k/m) (mass in kg)
2π/T = √(130/0.360)
2π/T = √361.11
2π/T = 19.003
T = 2π/19.003 = 0.331 s
Now, the amplitude A at a time t, is:
A = x exp(-bt/2m) (3)
At time 0, A = x. so A₀ = x
The problem states that we have 11 cycles respect to the initial amplitude, so expression (3) can be rewritten as:
A = x exp(-b(17t/2m)) using b as kg/s = 0.086 kg/s
Replacing the data we have:
A = x exp(-0.086(17*0.331)/2*0.36)
A = x exp(-0.086 * 7.815)
A = x exp(-0.6721)
A = 0.5106x (4)
Now, doing the ratio with the innitial we have:
A / A₀ = 0.5106x / x
The ratio is:
A/A₀ = 0.5106Hope this helps
