Answer:

a)   I2 = 3 (o-10) / (o- 30) , b)   h ’/h=  3 (o-10) / o (o-30)

Explanation:

The builder's equation is

          1 / f = 1 / o + 1 / i

Where f is the focal length, or e i are the distance to the object and image, respectively

As the separation between the lenses is greater than the focal distances, we must work them individually and separately. Let's start with the leftmost lens with focal length f = 15 cm

Let's calculate the position of the image of this lens

         1 / i1 = 1 / f - 1 / o

         1 / i1 = 1/15 - 1 / o

         i1 = o 15 / (o-15)

Let's calculate the distance to the image of the second lens, for this the image of the first is the distance to the object of the second

        o2 = d-i1

We write the builder equation

       1 / f2 = 1 / o2 + 1 / i2

       1 / i2 = 1 / f2 -1 / o2

       1 / i2 = 1 / f2 - 1 / (d-i1)

       1 / i2 = 1/20 - 1 / (d-i1)            (1)

Let's evaluate the last term

      d-i1 = d - 15 o / (o-15)

      d-i1 = (d (o-15) - 15 o) / (o-15)

      d- i1 = (30 or -30 15 -15 o) / (o-15)

      d-i1 = (15 or - 450) / (o- 15)

      d-i1 = = (15 or -450) / (o-15)

replace in 1

      1 / i2 = 1/20 - (or - 15) / (15 or -450)

      1 / i2 = [(15 o-450) - (o-15) 20] / (15 or -150)

      1 / i2 = (15 or - 450 - 20 or + 300) / (15 or - 150)

      1 / i2 = (-5 or -150) / (15 or -150)

      1 / i2 = (or -30) / (3 or - 30)

      I2 = 3 (o-10) / (o- 30)

Part B

The height of the image, we use the magnification equation

     m = h ’/ h = - i / o

     h ’= - h i / o

In our case

     h ’= h i2 / o

     h ’= h 3 (o-10) / o (o-30)

If they give the distance to the object it is easier

A 10n force is applied to a 25kg mass to slide it across a frictional surface. What is the acceleration of the mass?
klasskru [66]

Answer: a = 0.4m/s^2 - 9.8*c where c is the coefficient of kinetic friction of the surface

Explanation: We know that, by the second Newton's law, a = F/m

where a is the acceleration, F is the net force and m is the mass of the object.

Then, if the surface is frictionless, the total force applied in the object is 10N, and the mass of the object is 25kg, so the acceleration is:

a =10N/25kg = 0.4m/s^2.

But if the surface is frictional, there will be a force of friction applied in the mass (this depends on the coefficient of friction and the weight of the mass), this means that the acceleration will be reduced.

If = -(9.8*25)*c

where c is a number that is bigger than 0 and smaller than 1, is called the coefficient of kinetic friction.

So the total force is now:

F = (10 - 9.8*25*c)

Then, the acceleration in a frictional surface is equal to:

a = (10 - 9.8*25*c)/25 = 0.4m/s^2 - 9.8*c

HELP PLS.<br><br><br>What are the characteristics of the three states of matter?
vredina [299]

Matter can exist in one of three main states: solid, liquid, or gas. Solid matter is composed of tightly packed particles. A solid will retain its shape; the particles are not free to move around. Liquid matter is made of more loosely packed particles. Hopefully this helps:)
