Question : The magnification produced by a plane mirror is +1. What does this means. An object is placed at a distance of 10cm from a convex mirror of focal length 15cm .Find the position and nature of the image.

Answer»

SOLUTION :The positive, sign means IMAGE formed by a plane MIRROR is virtual and erect SINCE the magnification is 1. It means that the size of the image is equal to the size of the object. Focal length of convex mirror, f=+15cm. Object distance, u = -10 cm According to the mirror formula
` rArr 1/v = 1/f - 1/u`
` rArr 1/v = (2 + 3)/(30)`
` rArr 1/v = 5/30`
` rArr 6cm `
Magnification ` = - v/u = (-6)/(-10) = 0.6`
The image is located at the distance 6 cm from the mirror on the other side of the mirror. The positive sign and value less than 1 of the magnification INDICATES that the image formed virtual and erect and diminished.

Question : The length and complexity of food chains vary greatly. Each organism is generally eaten by two or more other kinds of organisms which in turn are eaten by several other organisms. The energy that is captured by the autotrophs does not revert back to the solar input and the energy which passes to the herbivores does not come back to autotrophs.

One of the reasons is the use of several pesticides and other chemicals to protect our crops from diseases and pests. These chemicals are either washed down into the soil or into the water bodies. From the soil, these are absorbed by the plants along with water and minerals, and from the water bodies these are taken up by aquatic plants and animals. What is the alternative to above mentioned problem?
