Answer:

Focal length is the distance of center of the lens from its FOCAL POINT

Explanation:

As we know that when straight beam of light incident on the lens which is parallel to the principle axis of the lens then this light will get refracted by the lens

After the refraction from the lens the light will pass through the a point on the principle axis. That common point is known as FOCAL POINT.

As as per lens formula we know that

$\frac{1}{d_i}{ + \frac{1}{d_o} = \frac{1}{f}$

now we have

$d_o = infinite$

so here we have

$d_i = f$

so focal point will be the point where image formed when straight parallel beam of light passes through it.

The answer is focal point.
The focal length is the distance from the lens (or mirror) to the focal point. The focal point is <span>the point at which rays of light converge.</span>

A heat pump has a coefficient of performance that is 60% of the Carnot heat pump coefficient of performance. The heat pump is us

Nataliya [291]

Answer:

$T_C$ =118.8 K= 154.2°C

Explanation:

COP_max of carnot heat pump= $\frac{T_{H} }{T_{H}-T_{C} }$

where T_H and T_C are temperatures of hot and cold reservoirs

Also COP= $\frac{Q_H}{W}$

in the question $COP= \frac{60}{100} \times COP_{max}$

⇒ $\frac{Q_H}{W} =\frac{60}{100}\times\frac{T_H}{T_H-T_C}$

heat is added directly to be as efficient as via heat pump

$Q_H= W$

and T_H= 24° C= 297 K

$1=\frac{60}{100}\times \frac{297}{297-T_C}$

on calculating the above equation we get

$T_C$ =118.8 K

the outdoor temperature for efficient addition of heat to interior of home

$T_C$ =118.8 K= 154.2°C

a load of 800 newton is lifted by an effort of 200 Newton. if the load is placed at a distance of 10 cm from the fulcrum. what w

nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

40 cm

Explanation:

We are given that

Load=800 N

Effort=200 N

Load distance=10 cm

We have to find the effort distance.

We know that

$load\times load\;distance=Effort\times effort\;distance$

Using the formula

$800\times 10=200\times effort\;distance$

Effort distance= $\frac{800\times 10}{200}$

Effort distance= $\frac{8000}{200}$

Effort distance=40 cm

Hence, the effort distance will be 40 cm.

An airplane travels from st louis to portland, oregon in 4.33 hours. if the distance traveled is 2,742 kilometers, what is the a

Makovka662 [10]

Average speed = (total distance covered) / (total time to cover the distance)

   = (2,742 km) / (4.33 hours)

   = (2,742 / 4.33) km/hr

   = 633 km/hr (rounded)

The illustration shows a rollercoaster and indicates four different positions the car might be at as it moves along the track. A

Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

Point a

Explanation:

The potential energy of an object is given by :

P = mgh

m is mass, g is acceleration due to gravity, h is height above ground level.

Potential energy is directly proportional to the position of an object.

In the attached figure, the maximum height is shown at point (a). It means it will have maximum potential energy at a as compared to b,c and d.

Why are eight electrons (four pairs) surrounding each non-hydrogen atom the optimal electronic arrangement for covalent molecule

rodikova [14]

Eight electrons surrounding each non-hydrogen atom is the optimal electronic arrangement for covalent molecules because it is needed to achieve an octet structure and is necessary to fill both the s and p subshells of electrons.

<h3>What is Covalent bonding?</h3>

This is the type of bonding which involves the sharing of electrons between atoms of an element.

This is done to achieve an octet configuration thereby making them stable and less reactive thereby making it the most appropriate choice.
