What happens to parallel light rays that strike a concave lens?

When parallel light rays comes across a concave lens, the rays are refracted outwards. Concave lenses are thinner in the middle part. Parallel light rays diverge and seems to appear from one point called the principal focus. The image formed is smaller.

Answer:

The light ray that pass through the lens diverge and is refracted outwards and never meets at a focal point.

Explanation:

Divergent lenses (also called concave lenses) are transparent bodies bounded by two refractory surfaces with one central axis in common. When a parallel light ray strikes a lens, it is refracted by changing its direction, this refraction in the divergent lens causes the rays to move away from the central axis, ie the ray of light passing through the lens diverges and is refracted outward. and is never at a focal point.

What are two ways air resistance can be increased?
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]
The increase in speed leads to an increase in the amount of air resistance. Eventually, the force of air resistance becomes large enough to balances the force of gravity. At this instant in time, the net force is 0 Newton; the object will stop accelerating. The object is said to have reached a terminal velocity.

Explain why the surface of Venus is hotter than the surface of Mercury
Hitman42 [59]
<span>Venus is hotter due to the greenhouse effect: Venus has an atmosphere about ninety times thicker than that of Earth, and made almost entirely of carbon dioxide, which is one of the gasses that causes the greenhouse effect on Earth.</span>

A girl of mass 55 kg throws a ball of mass 0.80 kg against a wall. The ball strikes the wall horizontally with a speed of 25 m/s
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

Magnitude of the average force exerted on the wall by the ball is 800N

Explanation:

Given

Contact Time = t = 0.05 seconds

Mass (of ball) = 0.80kg

Initial Velocity = u = 25m/s

Final Velocity = 25m/s

Magnitude of the average force exerted on the wall by the ball is given by;

F = ma

Where m = 0.8kg

a = Average Acceleration

a = (u + v)/t

a = (25 + 25)/0.05

a = 50/0.05

a = 1000m/s²

Average Force = Mass * Average Acceleration

Average Force = 0.8kg * 1000m/s²

Average Force = 800kgm/s²

Average Force = 800N

Hence, the magnitude of the average force exerted on the wall by the ball is 800N
