Where will the image form when you place an object on the principal axis of a concave mirror at a point between focus and centre of curvature?
If the object is placed on the principal axis of a concave mirror at a point between the focus and centre of curvature the image will form beyond the centre of curvature
What is the center of curvature of the mirror?
the centre of sphere is known as centre of curvature
Negative electric charge is distributed uniformally around a quarter of a circle of radius a with total charge -Q What are the x and y components of the resultant charge at the centre of the curvature?
the opposite of a positive charge
How does a focal length change as a convex lens becomes flatter?
d focal lenght increases due to increases in the distance between centre of curvature and the centre of the convex lens on the principal axis
What way does centripetal force point?
Radially, away from the centre of curvature at the point.
What is the difference between the measure of an arc and arc length?
They are normally the same. However, the measure of the arc could refer to the angle subtended at the centre of the radius of curvature.
What is the ratio of focal length of a spherical mirror to its radius curvature?
The focal point of a convex mirror lies on the same side as the centre of curvature and is at a distance of half the radius of curvature from the optical centre.
Is the radius In math?
It is the distance, from any point on a curve, to the centre of curvature at that point.
Where will the image form when you place an object on the principal axis of a concave mirror at a point between focus and centre of curvature?
If the object is placed on the principal axis of a concave mirror at a point between the focus and centre of curvature the image will form beyond the centre of curvature
What is mathimatical radious?
In mathematics, the radius of an arc is a straight line from the centre of curvature of the arc to the arc. In the case of a circle it is the line from the circle's centre to its circumference.
What is definition of centre of curvature of lens?
define the term centre of curvature
What is the center of curvature of the mirror?
the centre of sphere is known as centre of curvature
What is center of gravity of circle of radius r?
It is the centre of the circle. The size of the radius makes no difference.
What is mean by centre of curvature?
This means the vented of a circle. It is the radius of the circle that is perpendicular to a line tangent to any point on the concave side of a smooth curve.
What is geometric mean radius?
The radius is the distance between the centre of a circular arc and a point on the arc.
What is the distance between the centre and a point on the circle?
The length of the radius.
How do you find the radius?
Either.... Halve the diameter; or Divide the circumference by 2pi; or Calculate the difference between the location fo the centre and the location of a point on the circumference.
