You would use a concave mirror, as it can focus light to a point. For starting a fire, you would use a concave mirror known as a “solar concentrator.” The paper should be held at the focal point of the mirror to maximize the concentration of sunlight and create enough heat to ignite the paper.

Suppose there are two charges charge A and charge B. What determines the magnitude of the force between the two charges?

The magnitude of the force between two charges is determined by the product of the magnitudes of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them, as described by Coulomb's law. The force is greater with larger charges and decreases as the distance between the charges increases.


Suppose work input is 25 J and the output distance is 10 m. Factoring in the effect of friction which must be true about output force?

Considering the work input and output distance, to account for the effect of friction, the output force must be greater than the input force due to the work lost to friction. This means that the output force required to move the object the specified distance against friction will be higher than what would be calculated based solely on the given work input and output distance.


Suppose you plot the distance traveled by an object at various times and you discover that the graph is not a straight line what does this indicate about the object acceleration?

If the graph of distance traveled vs. time is not a straight line, it indicates that the object's acceleration is not constant. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, so a non-linear distance-time graph suggests that the object's velocity is changing at a non-constant rate, causing a curved graph.


Suppose an object is in fall Each second the onject falls?

The object's speed will increase at a constant rate due to gravity, known as acceleration due to gravity. The distance the object falls each second will also increase due to its increasing speed. This is represented by equations of motion such as s = ut + (1/2)at^2, where s is distance fallen, u is initial velocity, a is acceleration, and t is time.


Suppose that two objects with a gravitational force of 16 unit If the distance between the two objects is doubled what is the new force of attraction between the two objects?

The gravitational force between two objects is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. Doubling the distance between the two objects would reduce the force by a factor of 4, resulting in a new force of attraction of 4 units.

What is a globular star made up of?

I suppose you confused the term "globular star cluster". It is the cluster (the group of stars) that is globular (approximately spherical). The term "globular" doesn't refer to the individual stars.

What moves points a specified distance along a line parallel to a specified line?

Suppose the specified line has gradient m. Also suppose the specified distance is d.Then x = sqrt[d2/(1 + m2)] and y = m*x.A translation, by a distance x in the horizontal direction and y=mx in the vertical direction will move the point by the specified distance in the direction of the specified line.
