How many years will it take to occupy the computer's hard drive that can store data of 82
gigabytes if you used the keyboard to input data? Assume "standard" 8-hour working days, and that one byte is needed to input one keyboard character, and that you are capable to type 180 characters per minute.
More mirrors. Object O stands on the central axis of a spherical or plane mirror. For this situation (see the table below, all distances are
in centimeters), find (a) the type of mirror (concave or convex), (b) the focal distance f, (c) the object distance, (d) the magnification
(including sign), whether (e) the image is real or virtual, (f) inverted (I) or noninverted
(NI) from O, and (g) on the same side of the mirror as object O or on the opposite side.
