The focal length of the eye-lens system will be exactly 2.0 cm. The lens thickness is altered depending on the distance of the object being viewed so that the focal length is ALWAYS equal to the lens-retina distance. If this is not true fr an individual, they need glasses :)

The distance between the first and fifth minima of a single-slit diffraction pattern is 0.500 mm with the screen 37.0 cm away fr
WARRIOR [948]
In the single-slit experiment, the displacement of the minima of the diffraction pattern on the screen is given by
y_n= \frac{n \lambda D}{a} (1)
where
n is the order of the minimum
y is the displacement of the nth-minimum from the center of the diffraction pattern
\lambda is the light's wavelength
D is the distance of the screen from the slit
a is the width of the slit

In our problem, 
D=37.0 cm=0.37 m
\lambda=530 nm=5.3 \cdot 10^{-7} m
while the distance between the first and the fifth minima is
y_5-y_1 = 0.500 mm=0.5 \cdot 10^{-3} m (2)

If we use the formula to rewrite y_5, y_1, eq.(2) becomes
\frac{5 \lambda D}{a} - \frac{1 \lambda D}{a} =\frac{4 \lambda D}{a}= 0.5 \cdot 10^{-3} m
Which we can solve to find a, the width of the slit:
a= \frac{4 \lambda D}{0.5 \cdot 10^{-3} m}= \frac{4 (5.3 \cdot 10^{-7} m)(0.37 m)}{0.5 \cdot 10^{-3} m}=  1.57 \cdot 10^{-3} m=1.57 mm

A block of mass 200g is oscillating on the end of a horizontal spring of spring constant 100 N/m and natural length 12 cm. When
malfutka [58]

In order to determine the acceleration of the block, use the following formula:

F=ma

Moreover, remind that for an object attached to a spring the magnitude of the force acting over a mass is given by:

F=kx

Then, you have:

ma=kx

by solving for a, you obtain:

a=\frac{kx}{m}

In this case, you have:

k: spring constant = 100N/m

m: mass of the block = 200g = 0.2kg

x: distance related to the equilibrium position = 14cm - 12cm = 2cm = 0.02m

Replace the previous values of the parameters into the expression for a:

a=\frac{(\frac{100N}{m})(0.02m)}{0.2\operatorname{kg}}=10\frac{m}{s^2}

Hence, the acceleration of the block is 10 m/s^2

ANYONE help me with this
ycow [4]

Displacement is simply the change in position, or the difference in the final and initial positions:

\Delta d = d_f - d_i

Then

(a) ∆<em>d</em> = 5 m - 0 m = 5 m

(b) ∆<em>d</em> = 1 m - (-2 m) = 1 m + 2 m = 3 m

(c) ∆<em>d</em> = 2 m - (-2 m) = 2 m + 2 m = 4 m

(d) ∆<em>d</em> = 6 m - 2 m = 4 m

A mother is helping her children, of unequal weight, to balance on a seesaw so that they will be able to make it tilt back and f
horsena [70]

Answer:

L₁ = W×L / w

Explanation:

The scenario is shown in the image below.

<u>At the pivot point, the torque acting on this point must be zero so that there will be easy back and forth without the heavier child.</u>

<u>Torque created by lighter child + Torque created by the heavier child = 0</u>

Thus,

According to the axis system, the heavier child is left to the pivot (origin), so,

W×(- L ) + w× L₁ = 0

So,

<u>L₁ = W×L / w</u>

Earth has a magnetic dipole moment of 8.0 × 1022 J/T. (a) What current would have to be produced in a single turn of wire extend
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

a

The current that would be produced is I = 6.26 *10 ^8 A

b

Yes this arrangement can be used to cancel out earths magnetic field at points well above the Earth's surface.This is because this current loop acts as a magnetic dipole for point above the earth surface  

c

No this arrangement can not be used to cancel out earths magnetic field at points on the Earth's surface .this because on the earth surface it shifts from its behavior as a magnetic dipole

Explanation:

    From the question we are told that

             The magnetic moment of earth is M = 8.0*10 ^{22} J/T

               The radius of earth generally has a value of R = 6378 *10^3 m

Magnetic moment is mathematically given as

                    M = IA

A is the area of the of the earth(assumption that the earth is circular ) and this evaluated as  

                     A = \pi R^2

Now making I the subject in the above formula

                  I = \frac{M}{A}

                     = \frac{M}{\pi R^2}

                     = \frac{8.0^10^{22}}{\pi (6378 *10^{3})^2}

                     = 6.26 *10^8 A
