A diverging lens is used to permit clear vision of an object placed at infinity. The focal length of the lens is -100 cm.

<h3>What is focal length?</h3>

The focal length is half of the radius of curvature of the focal lens.

By the lens maker formula,

1/f = 1/v +1/u

where, v is the image distance and u is the object distance.

Give, the object is at infinity and the image must form at 100 cm, the the focal length will be

1/f = 1/ -100 + 1/∞

f = -100 cm

The focal length must be -100 cm for the diverging lens.

Learn more about focal length.

Jimmy is cooking pasta in a pot of water on the stove. He uses a stopwatch to see how long the pasta takes to cook depending on
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

stove

Explanation:

The stove is the independent variable in this question as it does not depend on anything like other variables such as pot, water, temperature and of cause pasta.

The pot depends on the stove, the water depends on the pot and stove, the pasta depends on the water and its temperature.

Cheers.

In the year 2055, a rocket was launched from a research laboratory on Mars. Mars has essentially no atmosphere. The test rocket
algol [13]

Answer:

h = 618.64 m

Explanation:

First we need to calculate the height gained by rocket while the fuel is burning. We use 2nd equation of motion for that purpose:

h₁ = Vit + (1/2)at²

where,

h₁ = height gained during the burning of fuel

Vi = Initial Velocity = 0 m/s

t = time = 7 s

a = acceleration = 8 m/s²

Therefore,

h₁ = (0 m/s)(7 s) + (1/2)(8 m/s²)(7 s)²

h₁ = 196 m

Now we use 1st equation of motion to find final speed Vf:

Vf = Vi + at

Vf = 0 m/s + (8 m/s²)(7 s)

Vf =  56 m/s

Now, we calculate height covered in free fall motion. Using 3rd equation of motion:

2ah₂ = Vf² - Vi²

where,

a = - 3.71 m/s²

h₂ = height gained during free fall motion = ?

Vf = Final Velocity = 0 m/s (since, rocket will stop at highest point)

Vi = 56 m/s

Therefore,

(2)(-3.71 m/s²)h₂ = (0 m/s)² - (56 m/s)²

h₂ = 422.64 m

So the total height gained will be:

h = h₁ + h₂

h = 196 m + 422.64 m

<u>h = 618.64 m</u>

Turning on a flashlight is what type of energy to what type of energy
MissTica
Turning on a flashlight uses a battery, right? Chemical energy is stored in that battery. If you use the battery, you're converting that chemical energy to an electrical energy.

In a flashlight then, the electrical energy becomes light energy and thermal energy in the bulb. Why light and thermal? The flashlight gives us light and then, gives out heat. This is why when we touch light bulbs, it feels hot.

I hope you find this answer the most helpful! :)

A steady device in each cycle converts 155 J of work to thermal energy that is released into a reservoir at 340 K. Part A Calcul
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

change in entropy is 3.3034 × 10^{22}  

Explanation:

give data

thermal energy Q  = 155 J

temperature T = 340 K

to find out

change in entropy

solution

we know change in entropy formula that is

change in entropy = Q / ( K×T )   ..............1

here K is boltzmann constant that is 1.38 × 10^{-23} kg-m²/s²

put these value in equation 1 we get

change in entropy = Q / ( K × T )

change in entropy = 155 / (  1.38 × 10^{-23}  × 340 )

change in entropy = 3.3034 × 10^{22}  

so change in entropy is 3.3034 × 10^{22}
