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.

What do I have to do to figure out " What % of an object’s mass is above the water line if the object’s density is 0.82g/ml " wi
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

18%

Explanation:

There are two equal and opposite forces on a floating object: weight and buoyancy.

W = B

The weight of an object is its mass times gravity: W = mg

Buoyancy is the weight of the displaced fluid: W = mf g

Plugging in:

mg = mf g

m = mf

Mass is density times volume:

ρV = ρf Vf

Solving for the ratio of Vf / V:

Vf / V = ρ / ρf

Given that ρ = 0.82 g/mL and ρf = 1.00 g/mL:

Vf / V = 0.82

That means 82% of the object's volume (and therefore, 82% of its mass, assuming uniform density) is submerged.  Which means that 18% is above the water line.

The planet Jupiter orbits the Sun at a nearly constant speed. Which of the following statements are true?
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

a. There is a force on Jupiter toward the center of the orbit.

d. Jupiter is accelerating toward the center of the orbit.

Explanation:

Let us look at each of the choices one by one:

a. There is a force on Jupiter toward the center of the orbit.

True. The sun being at the center of Jupiter's orbit, pulls the planet towards it (providing the centripetal force), therefore, there exists a force on Jupiter toward the center of the orbit.

b. There is a force on Jupiter pulling it out from the center of the orbit.

Nope. The centripetal force due to gravity acts towards the center of the orbit.  

c. There is a force on Jupiter in the direction of its motion.

Nope. There exists only the centripetal force acting towards the center of the orbit,

d. Jupiter is accelerating toward the center of the orbit.

Yes. Because of the centripetal force gravity provides, Jupiter is accelerating towards the center of the orbit, but it does not fall in because it has velocity perpendicular to the direction of its acceleration.

Which form of energy is due to the movement of electrons?​
larisa86 [58]

Kinetic energy is motion of waves, electrons, atoms, molecules, substances, and objects. Potential energy is stored energy and the energy of position gravitational energy. There are several forms of potential energy. Electrical Energy is the movement of electrical charges.

I hope this helps you.
