You lower a 2.50 kg textbook (remember when textbooks used to be made out of paper instead of being digital?) from a height of 1

.85 m to 1.50 m. What is its change in potential energy?

Answer:

Change in potential energy = 8.58 J

Explanation:

Potential energy = Mass x Acceleration due to gravity x Height

Potential energy = mgh

m = 2.50 kg

g = 9.81 m/s²

Initial height, h₁ = 1.85 m

Final height, h₂ = 1.50 m

Change in potential energy = mgh₁  - mgh₂

Change in potential energy = 2.5 x 9.81 x 1.85 - 2.5 x 9.81 x 1.50

Change in potential energy = 8.58 J

Answer:

2 kg

Explanation:

Remember:

F = m * a       re-arrange to

F/a   = m      substitute in the given values

10 / 5   =   2 kg

<h2>Answers:</h2><h2 /><h2>a) Arrow B</h2><h2>b) Arrow E</h2>

Explanation:

Refraction is a phenomenon in which a wave (the light in this case) bends or changes its direction <u>when passing through a medium with a refractive index different from the other medium.</u>  Where the Refractive index is a number that describes how fast light propagates through a medium or material.  

According to this, if we observe the rays  A an D passing throgh the biconcave lens, we will have two mediums:

1) The air

2)The material of the biconcave lens

This two mediums have different refractive indexes, hence the rays will change the direction.

-For the incident ray A, the corresponding refractive ray is B, because is the ray that bends after passing throgh the lens

-For the incident ray D, the refracted ray is E following the same principle.
