Answer:

The statements to choose from are not shown in your question, but find below some characteristics of these three main phases, which may help you choose the right answers you are seeking.

Explanation:

Solid: The matter that constitutes it maintains a fixed volume and shape, with the particles that compose it close together and relatively fixed into place.

Liquid: The matter that constitutes it maintains a fixed volume, but has a variable shape that adapts to fit its container. Its particles are still close together but move freely.

Gas: The matter that constitutes it has both variable volume and shape, adapting both to fit its container. Its particles are neither close together nor fixed in place.

liquids are closely-packed but with no regular arrangement

gases are loosely-packed and have no regular arrangement

A basketball player jumped straight up to grab a rebound. If she was in the air for 0.80 second, how high did she jump?
Kazeer [188]
-- She went up for 0.4 sec and down for 0.4 sec.

-- The vertical distance traveled in gravity during ' t ' seconds is

                   D  =  (1/2)  x  (g)  x  (t)²

                       = (1/2) (9.8 m/s²) (0.4 sec)²

                       =    (4.9 m/s²)  x  (0.16 s²)

                       =      0.784 meter        ( B )

An airplane maintains a speed of 585 km/h relative to the air it is flying through as it makes a trip to a city 815 km away to t
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

a)   t = 1.47 h    b) t = 1.32 h

Explanation:

a)  In this problem the plane and the wind are in the same North-South direction, whereby the vector sum is reduced to the scalar sum (ordinary). Let's calculate the total speed

     v = v_{f}f - v_{w}

     v = 585 -32.1

     v = 552.9 km / h

We use the speed ratio in uniform motion

     v = x / t

     t = x / v

     t = 815 /552.9

     t = 1.47 h

b)  We repeat the calculation, but this time the wind is going in the direction of the plane

      v=  v_{f}f - v_{w}

      v 585 + 32.1

      v = 617.1 km / h

      t = 815 /617.1

      t = 1.32 h

Consider an object with s=12cm that produces an image with s′=15cm. Note that whenever you are working with a physical object, t
Leni [432]

A. 6.67 cm

The focal length of the lens can be found by using the lens equation:

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{s}+\frac{1}{s'}

where we have

f = focal length

s = 12 cm is the distance of the object from the lens

s' = 15 cm is the distance of the image from the lens

Solving the equation for f, we find

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{12 cm}+\frac{1}{15 cm}=0.15 cm^{-1}\\f=\frac{1}{0.15 cm^{-1}}=6.67 cm

B. Converging

According to sign convention for lenses, we have:

- Converging (convex) lenses have focal length with positive sign

- Diverging (concave) lenses have focal length with negative sign

In this case, the focal length of the lens is positive, so the lens is a converging lens.

C. -1.25

The magnification of the lens is given by

M=-\frac{s'}{s}

where

s' = 15 cm is the distance of the image from the lens

s = 12 cm is the distance of the object from the lens

Substituting into the equation, we find

M=-\frac{15 cm}{12 cm}=-1.25

D. Real and inverted

The magnification equation can be also rewritten as

M=\frac{y'}{y}

where

y' is the size of the image

y is the size of the object

Re-arranging it, we have

y'=My

Since in this case M is negative, it means that y' has opposite sign compared to y: this means that the image is inverted.

Also, the sign of s' tells us if the image is real of virtual. In fact:

- s' is positive: image is real

- s' is negative: image is virtual

In this case, s' is positive, so the image is real.

E. Virtual

In this case, the magnification is 5/9, so we have

M=\frac{5}{9}=-\frac{s'}{s}

which can be rewritten as

s'=-M s = -\frac{5}{9}s

which means that s' has opposite sign than s: therefore, the image is virtual.

F. 12.0 cm

From the magnification equation, we can write

s'=-Ms

and then we can substitute it into the lens equation:

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{s}+\frac{1}{s'}\\\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{s}+\frac{1}{-Ms}

and we can solve for s:

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{M-1}{Ms}\\f=\frac{Ms}{M-1}\\s=\frac{f(M-1)}{M}=\frac{(-15 cm)(\frac{5}{9}-1}{\frac{5}{9}}=12.0 cm

G. -6.67 cm

Now the image distance can be directly found by using again the magnification equation:

s'=-Ms=-\frac{5}{9}(12.0 cm)=-6.67 cm

And the sign of s' (negative) also tells us that the image is virtual.

H. -24.0 cm

In this case, the image is twice as tall as the object, so the magnification is

M = 2

and the distance of the image from the lens is

s' = -24 cm

The problem is asking us for the image distance: however, this is already given by the problem,

s' = -24 cm

so, this is the answer. And the fact that its sign is negative tells us that the image is virtual.
