Answer:

Explanation:

There are two types of images formed by the lenses or mirrors.

1. Real image: When two refracted or reflected rays actually meet at a point after refraction or reflection, the image formed is real.

2. Virtual image: When two refracted or reflected rays appear to meet at a point after refraction or reflection, the image formed is virtual.

A concave lens is a diverging lens, it means when the rays of light incident on the concave lens, then after refraction, the rays diverges from its original path. Thus, they cannot meet at a point, they appears to comes from a point and the image formed is virtual.

A concave mirror and a converging lens will only produce a real image if the object is located beyond the focal point (i.e., more than one focal length away). The image of an object is found to be upright and reduced in size.

If you are driving 95 km????h along a straight road and you look to the side for 2.0 s, how far do you travel during this inatte

Gala2k [10]

Answer:

52.7 m

Explanation:

Given that

speed of the vehicle, v = 95 km/h

time of inattentiveness, t = 2 s

distance travelled, s = ?

Since we have the speed in km/h and the time in s, it would be best if we converted one of them to make sure we have all units in the same rank.

95 km/h = 95 * 1000/3600 m/s

95 km/h = 95000/3600 m/s

95 km/h = 26.38 m/s

Now, we use our derived speed in m/s

Speed of a moving vehicle is given by,

v = s/t, where

v = speed in m/s

s = distance travelled, in m

t = time spent, in s

if we make d the subject of formula by rearranging the equation, we have

s = v * t

distance travelled, s = 26.38 * 2

distance travelled, s = 52.7 m

therefore, during this inattentive period, 52.7 m was travelled.

A capacitor consists of two square plates, 8.7 cm on a side, separated by a 2.0 mm air gap. How much energy would be stored in t

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

122.84 J

Explanation:

Since plate is square, area, A is given by $(8.7/100)^{2}=0.007569m^{2}$

The distance between plates, d, is given in the question as 2mm=0.002m

Charge on plate, Q, as given in the question is 240 $\mu c$

Assuming mica dielectric constant, k of 7

Capacitance, C is given by

C= $\frac {k\epsilon_{o}A}{d}=\frac {(7)(8.85*10^{-12})(0.007569)}{0.002}=2.34*10*^{-10}F$

Stored energy, E is given by

E= $\frac {Q^{2}}{2C}=\frac {(240*10^{-6})^{2}}{2*(2.34*10^{-10})}=122.84J$

Therefore, the stored energy is 122.84 J

Imagine that asteroid A that has an escape velocity of 50 m/s. If asteroid B has twice the mass and twice the radius, it would h

padilas [110]

Answer:

The same as the escape velocity of asteorid A (50m/s)

Explanation:

The escape velocity is described as follows:

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R}}$

where $G$ is the universal gravitational constant, $M$ is the mass of the asteroid and $R$ is the radius

and since the scape velocity is 50m/s:

$50m/s=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R}}$

Now, if the astroid B has twice mass and twice the radius, we have that tha mass is: $2M$

and the radius is: $2R$

inserting these values into the formula for escape velocity:

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2G(2M)}{2R} } =\sqrt{\frac{4GM}{2R} } =\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R} }$

and we have found that $50m/s=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R}}$ , so the two asteroids have the same escape velocity.

We found that the expression for escape velocity remains the same as for asteroid A, this because both quantities (radius and mass) doubled, so it does not affect the equation.

The answer is

Asteroid B would have an escape velocity the same as the escape velocity of asteroid A
