Convex lenses when placed in the air, will cause rays of light (parallel to the central axis) to converge.

Converging lenses, commonly referred to as convex lenses, have thicker centers and narrower upper and lower margins. The edges are outwardly curled. This lens has the ability to concentrate a beam of parallel light rays coming from the outside onto a spot on the opposite side of the lens.

The image created is referred to be a genuine image when it is inverted relative to the object. On a screen, this kind of image can be recorded. When the object is positioned at a point farther than one focal length from the lens, a converging lens creates a true image.

A virtual image is one that cannot be produced on a screen and is formed when the image is upright in relation to the object. When an item is positioned within one focal length of a converging lens, a virtual image is created. It creates an enlarged image of the object on the same side of the lens as the image. It serves as a magnifier.

If he leaves the ramp with a speed of 31.0 m/s and has a speed of 29.5 m/s at the top of his trajectory, determine his maximum h

raketka [301]

Answer:

The maximum height reached is 4.63 m.

Explanation:

Given:

Initial speed of the man (u) = 31.0 m/s

Speed at the top of trajectory ( $u_x$ ) = 29.5 m/s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

When the man reaches the top of the trajectory, the vertical component of velocity becomes zero and hence only horizontal component of velocity acts on him.

Also, since there is no net force acting in the horizontal direction, the acceleration is zero in the horizontal direction from Newton's second law. Thus, the horizontal component of velocity always remains the same.

So, speed at the top of trajectory is nothing but the horizontal component of initial velocity.

Now, initial velocity can be rewritten in terms of its components as:

$u^2=u_x^2+u_y^2$

Where, $u_x\ and\ u_y$ are the initial horizontal and vertical velocities of the man.

Now, plug in the given values and simplify. This gives,

$(31.0)^2=(29.5)^2+u_y^2\\\\961=870.25+u_y^2\\\\u_y^2=961-870.25\\\\u_y^2=90.75\ m^2/s^2--------1$

Now, we know that, for a projectile motion, the maximum height is given as:

$H=\frac{u_y^2}{2g}$

Plug in the value from equation (1) and 9.8 for 'g' to solve for 'H'. This gives,

$H=\frac{90.75}{2\times 9.8}\\\\H=4.63\ m$

Therefore, the maximum height reached is 4.63 m.

I). Mechanical energy is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy in an object that is used to do work.

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

false statement : b ) For the motion of a cart on an incline plane having a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.5, the magnitude of the change in kinetic energy equals the magnitude of the change in gravitational potential energy

Explanation:

mechanical energy = potential energy + kinetic energy = constant

differentiating both side

Δ potential energy + Δ kinetic energy = 0

Δ potential energy = - Δ kinetic energy

first statement is true.

Friction is a non conservative force so inter-conversion of potential and kinetic energy is not possible in that case. In case of second option, the correct relation is as follows

change in gravitational potential energy = change in kinetic energy + work done against friction .

So given 2 nd option is incorrect.

In case of no change in gravitational energy , work done is equal to

change in kinetic energy.

Write a sentence on how these words are used in real life situations

ipn [44]

Answer:

Explanation:

You can approach an expression for the instantaneous velocity at any point on the path by taking the limit as the time interval gets smaller and smaller. Such a limiting process is called a derivative and the instantaneous velocity can be defined as.#3

For the special case of straight line motion in the x direction, the average velocity takes the form: If the beginning and ending velocities for this motion are known, and the acceleration is constant, the average velocity can also be expressed as For this special case, these expressions give the same result. Example for non-constant acceleration#1

In which situation will the lowest resistance occur?

MrMuchimi

C. Thick wire and cold temperature.

Explanation:

The resistance of a wire is given by: R = (ρL)/A

where ρ is the resistivity of the material, L is the length of the wire, A is the cross-sectional area of the wire.

From the formula, we see that the thicker the wire, the larger A, therefore the smaller the resistivity. so, a thick wire will have lower resistivity.

Moreover, the resistance of a wire increases with the temperature. In fact, high temperatures mean more motion of the atoms/electrons inside the wire, so more resistance to the flow of current through it. Therefore, colder temperature means lower resistance.

So, the correct option is thick wire and cold temperature.
