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.

A balloon is filled at sea level on a spring day (temperature 20°C) to a volume of 0.500 m3 and then brought at op of Mount Ever

blagie [28]

Answer:

Volume increases

Explanation:

The balloon when filled at sea level being comparatively close to the center of the earth will have higher pressure due to the influence of gravity and when this balloon is taken to the top of the mountain being away from the center of earth, it will experience a lesser pressure due to low gravity where the amount of force exerted by the air on the object is lesser as compared to to that at the sea level.

Therefore, there will be an increase in volume of the balloon as there is expansion of air on the inside of the balloon as a result of low pressure.

There is not much effect of temperature at both the sea level and the mountain top as the temperature does not impart any energy to the air molecules so as to decrease the volume.

Therefore,there is an increase in the volume of the balloon at the top of the mountain.

Percentage change in volume is given by:

$% change = \farc{V - 0.5}{0.5}times 100$

A disk is uniformly accelerated from rest with angular acceleration α. The magnitude of the linear acceleration of a point on th

solniwko [45]

Answer:

$a = R\alpha\sqrt{1 + \alpha^2t^4}$

Explanation:

As we know that the acceleration of a point on the rim of the disc is in two directions

1) tangential acceleration which is given as

$a_t = R\alpha$

2) Centripetal acceleration

$a_c = \omega^2 R$

here we know that

$\omega = \alpha t$

$a_c = (\alpha t)^2 R$

now we know that net linear acceleration is given as

$a = \sqrt{a_c^2 + a_t^2}$

so we have

$a = \sqrt{R^2\alpha^2 + R^2(\alpha t)^4}$

$a = R\alpha\sqrt{1 + \alpha^2t^4}$

A ball is thrown straight up from the ground with speed v0. At the same instant, a second ball is dropped from rest from a heigh

dlinn [17]

Answer:

a) t = H/v0

b) H = -(v0)²/g

Explanation:

Hi there!

a)The position of the balls can be calculated using the following equation:

y = y0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²

Where:

y = height of the ball at time t.

y0 = initial height.

v0 = initial velocity.

g = acceleration due to gravity.

t = time.

For the ball that is thrown upwards, the initial height is zero, then, the equation can be written as follows:

y = v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²

The second ball is initially at a height H and the initial velocity is zero. The equation of height for the second ball will be:

y = H + 1/2 · g · t²

When the two balls collide, their height is the same. Then, equalizing both equations we can obtain the time at which they collide:

v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t² = H + 1/2 · g · t²

v0 · t = H

t = H/v0

b) When the first ball is at the highest point its velocity is zero. Using the equation of velocity we can find the time at which the ball is at that point. The equation of velocity is the following:

v = v0 + g · t

At the highest point v = 0.

0 = v0 + g · t

Solving for t:

-v0/g = t

The time at which the first ball is at the highest point is t = -v0/g

The time at which both balls collide was calculated above:

t = H/v0

Then, equalizing both times and solving for H:

H/v0 = -v0/g

H = -v0/g · v0

H = -(v0)²/g
