Explanation:

an object's gravitational potential energy Eg is m×g×h where:

m=mass

g=9.8m/s²

h=height relative to the closest object below it (because it cannot potentially fall through it

so Eg = 15×9.8×5=735J

We measure the loudness of sound in decibels.<br> a. True<br> b. False

Tatiana [17]

Answer: The correct answer is True.

Explanation:

Loudness of sound is referred to how soft or loud a sound is for the listener.

This term is measured in a unit known as decibels referred to as dB.

This unit is used to measure the relative intensity of sounds on a scale from zero to 100 dB.

More the value of decibels, it will be uncomfortable for a person to hear that sound.

So Yes, the loudness of sound is measured in decibels.

A moving rope (parallel to the slope) is used to pull skiers up the mountain. If the slope of the hill is 37" and friction is ne

Charra [1.4K]

Since rope is parallel to the inclined plane so here we can say that net force parallel to the person which is pulling upwards must counterbalance the component of weight of the person.

Now here we will do the components of the weight of the person

given that weight of the person = 500 N

now its components are

$W_x = 500 cos37$

$W_y = 500 sin37$

now here as we can say that one of the component is balanced here by the normal force perpendicular to plane

while the other component of the weight is balanced by the force applied on the rope

So here the force applied on the rope will be given as

$F = W_y = 500 sin37$

$F = 300 N$

so it apply 300 N force along the inclined plane

How many lenses with different focal lengths can be obtained by combining two surfaces whose radii of curvature are 4.00 cm and

Dovator [93]

Answer:

The lenses with different focal length are four.

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius of curvature R₁= 4

Radius of curvature R₂ = 8

We know ,

Refractive index of glass = 1.6

When, R₁= 4, R₂ = 8

We need to calculate the focal length of the lens

Using formula of focal length

$\dfrac{1}{f}=(n-1)(\dfrac{1}{R_{1}}+\dfrac{1}{R_{2}})$

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{1}{f}=(1.6-1)(\dfrac{1}{4}+\dfrac{1}{8})$

$\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{9}{40}$

$f=4.44\ cm$

When , R₁= -4, R₂ = 8

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{1}{f}=(1.6-1)(\dfrac{1}{-4}+\dfrac{1}{8})$

$\dfrac{1}{f}=-\dfrac{3}{40}$

$f=-13.33\ cm$

When , R₁= 4, R₂ = -8

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{1}{f}=(1.6-1)(\dfrac{1}{4}-\dfrac{1}{8})$

$\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{3}{40}$

$f=13.33\ cm$

When , R₁= -4, R₂ = -8

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{1}{f}=(1.6-1)(\dfrac{1}{-4}-\dfrac{1}{8})$

$\dfrac{1}{f}=-\dfrac{9}{40}$

$f=-4.44\ cm$

Hence, The lenses with different focal length are four.
