What is the focal length of a lens?
marishachu [46]
The focal length of the lens is the distance between the lens and the image sensor when the subject is in focus, usually stated in millimeters (e.g., 28 mm, 50 mm, or 100 mm). In the case of zoom lenses, both the minimum and maximum focal lengths are stated, for example 18–55 mm.

How do you add scientific notation if the problem is like this:<br>3.72 x 10^9  +  5.46 x 10^8?
Crazy boy [7]
You can only add or subtract numbers in scientific notation if they have
the same power of 10.  If they're different, then you have to change one
to match the other one.

Here are both ways to do your example:

3.72x 10^9 = 37.2x10^8

(37.2 x 10^8)+(5.46 x 10^8) = (37.2+5.46) x 10^8 = 42.66x10^8 = <em>4.266x10^9</em>

=======================

5.46 x 10^8 = 0.546 x 10^9

3.72 x 10^9 + 0.546 x 10^9 = (3.72 + 0.546) x 10^9 = <em>4.266 x 10^9</em>

Two masses are joined by a mass less string. A 33-N force applied vertically to the upper mass gives the system a constant upwar
lisov135 [29]

Lower mass: 1.20 kg, upper mass: 1.28 kg

Explanation:

In order to solve the problem, we consider the forces acting on the upper mass only first.

The upper mass is acted upon three forces:

  • The applied force F_a=33 N, upward
  • The weight of the mass itself, m_u g, where m_u is the upper mass and g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity, downward
  • The tension in the string, T=16 N, downward

Therefore, the equation of the forces for the upper mass is:

F_a - m_u g - T = m_u a

where

a=3.5 m/s^2 is the acceleration (upward)

Solving for m_u,

m_u = \frac{F_a-T}{a+g}=\frac{33-16}{3.5+9.8}=1.28 kg

Now we can find the lower mass by considering the forces acting on it:

  • The tension in the string, T = 16 N, upward
  • The weight of the mass itself, m_L g, where m_L is the lower mass, downward

So the equation of the forces is

T-m_L g = m_L a

And solving for the mass,

m_L = \frac{T}{a+g}=\frac{16}{3.5+9.8}=1.20 kg

The direction that an induced current flows in a circuit is given by
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

Lenz's law

Explanation:

it  states that induced emf  of  different polarities induces a current whose magnetic field opposes the change in magnetic flux through the coil  in order to ensure that original flux is maintained through the coil  when current flows in it.

according to Faraday' s law of electromagnetic induction

Where -ve sign due to lenz's law

Emf is the induced voltage also known as electromotive force

N is the number of loops.

dϕ Change in magnetic flux.

dt Change in time.
