Describe the shape of a convex lens and explain what it does to light.

Physics

alexira [117]3 years ago

Convex lenses are thicker at the centers than the edges, they are known as the converging lenses. Rays of light that pass through the lens are brought closer together (they converge). When rays of light that are parallel pass through a convex lens they are refracted, the refracted rays converge at one point called the principal focus.

nert xenon actually forms many compounds, especially with highly electronegative fluorine. The ΔH o f values for xenon difluorid
loris [4]

Answer:

For Xenon fluoride, the average bond energy is 132kj/mol

For tetraflouride,the average bond energy is 150.5kj/mol.

For hexaflouride, the average bond energy is 146.5 kj/mol

Explanation:

For xenon fluoride

105/2 = 52.5

For F-F

159/2 = 79.5

Average bond energy of Xe-F = 79.5 + 52.5 = 132kj/mole

For tetraflouride

284/4 = 71

For F-F

159/2 = 79.5

Average bond energy = 79.5 + 71 = 150.5kj/mol

For hexaflouride

402/6 = 67

F-F = 159/2 = 79.5

Average bond energy = 67 + 79.5 = 146.5kj/ mol

The distance traveled, in feet, of a ball dropped from a tall building is modeled by the equation d(t) = 16t2 where d equals the
Ainat [17]
When  t=2, the ball has fallen     d(2) = 16 (2²) = 64 feet .

When  t=5, the ball has fallen     d(5) = 16 (5²) = 400 feet .

Distance fallen from  t=2  until  t=5  is  (400 - 64) = 336 feet.

Time period between  t=2  until  t=5  is  (5 - 2) = 3 seconds.

Average speed of the ball from  t=2  until  t=5  is

                 (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)

             =            336 feet        /        3 seconds       =  112 feet per second.

That's what choice-C says.

How long could you survive without electricity? What parts of your life would be affected by loss of electricity?
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

Depends on the person, if you are hooked to your phone which most people are these days, you might go a little crazy. But think cavemen or anybody long ago, they survived without electricity. People in Africa bathe in the lake or any water nearby, they also walk for miles just to get drinking water. So yes, if you really tried you could go without electricity for possibly your whole life. It sucks if you have homework though because you don't have Brainly :)

Dario, a prep cook at an Italian restaurant, spins a salad spinner and observes that it rotates 20.0 times in 5.00 seconds and t
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

-\frac{8\pi}{3}rad/s^2

Explanation:

To solve this problem we need to apply the concept related to Angular Acceleration. We can find it through the equation

\omega_f^2-\omega_i^2=2\alpha\theta

Where for definition,

\omega_i = \frac{\theta}{t}

The number of revolution (\theta)was given by 20 times, then

\omega_i = \frac{20*2pi}{5}

\omega = 8\pi rad/s

We know as well that the salad rotates 6 more times, therefore in angle measurements that is

\theta = 6*2\pi rad = 12\pi rad

The cook at the end stop to spin, then using our first equation,

0-8\pi = 2\alpha (12\pi)

re-arrange to solve\alpha ,

\alpha = \frac{-8\pi}{2*12\pi}

\alpha = -\frac{8\pi}{3}rad/s^2

We can know find the required time,

\omega_f-\omega_i = \alpha t

Re-arrange to find t, and considering that \omega_f=0

t= \frac{\omega_i}{\alpha}

t=\frac{-8\pi}{-8\pi/3}

t=3s

Therefore take for the salad spinner to come to rest is 3 seconds with acceleration of -\frac{8\pi}{3}rad/s^2
