On what: 

f (is the focal length of the lens) = - 7.50 cm 
p (is the distance from the object to the lens) = ?
p' (is the distance from the image to the spherical lens) = 3.70 cm

Using the Gaussian equation, to know where the object is situated (distance from the point).

\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{p} + \frac{1}{p'}
\frac{1}{-7.50} = \frac{1}{p} + \frac{1}{3.70}
\frac{1}{p} = - \frac{1}{7.50} - \frac{1}{3.70}
\frac{1}{p} =  \frac{-3.70-7.50}{27.75}
\frac{1}{p} = \frac{- 11.20}{27.75}
Product of extremes equals product of means:
- 11.20*p = 1*27.75
- 11.20p = 27.75\:simplify\:by*(-1)
11.20p = - 27.75
p =  \frac{-27.75}{11.20}
\boxed{\boxed{p \approx -2.47\:cm}}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark

Radiation emitted from human skin reaches its peak at λ = 960 µm. what is the frequency of this radiation? planck's constant is
Artist 52 [7]
1) The wavelength of the radiation emitted by the human skin is
\lambda=960 \mu m = 960 \cdot 10^{-6} m
the frequency of the radiation is related to the wavelength by
f= \frac{c}{\lambda}
where c=3 \cdot 10^8 m/s is the speed of light. Plugging numbers into the formula, we find the frequency of the radiation:
f= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{960 \cdot 10^{-6}m}=3.13 \cdot 10^{11} Hz

2) The frequency of this radiation is 313 GHz, and its wavelength 960 \mu m. If we look at the table of the electromagnetic spectrum
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_spectrum
We see that we are in the range of visible light (in particular, in the infrared range).
Therefore, the correct answer is <span>2. visible light .</span>

A student wants to determine the coefficient of static friction μ between a block of wood and an adjustable inclined plane. Of t
Cloud [144]

Answer:

A protractor to measure the angle of the inclined plane with the horizontal

Explanation:

The student needs to lift the free end of the adjustable inclined plane until the object barely starts sliding, and measure the angle at which such happens. At that point, the force of friction equals the component of the weight in the direction of the incline. That is:

f=\mu\,* N = \mu * m g\, cos(\theta)

and  w_{//}= m\,g\,sin(\theta)

Then  

f = w_{//}\\\mu *\,m \,g\,cos(\theta) = m\,g\,sin(\theta)\\\mu = tan(\theta)

and therefore, the coefficient of static friction is fully determined just by calculating the tangent of the angle that the incline forms with the horizontal.

Then the only extra instrument needed is a protractor to measure the angle.
