The index of refraction of a thin lens is 1.5. Its one surface is convex (radius of curvature 20 cm) and the other planar. Calcu

late the focal length of the lens. What kind of an image does it form when the object is real and at 40 cm before the lens? What is the focal length if the lens is turned around? How does this influence image formation?

Answer:

f = 40 cm

image formed at a distance of 40 cm from lens is magnified and virtual.

when lens is turned around focal length is f = 40 cm

Explanation:

given data:

R_1 = 20 cm

R_2 = \infty

Refraction index of lens = 1.5

focal length of lens is given as

\frac{1}{f} = (n-1) (\frac{1}{R_1} - \frac{1}{R_1})

Putting all value to get focal length value

\frac{1}{f} = (1.5 -1) \frac{1}{20}

\frac{1}{f} =\frac{0.5}{20}

f = 40 cm

image formed at a distance of 40 cm from lens is magnified and virtual.

when lens is turned around

R_1 =  \infty

R_2 = -20cm

Refraction index of lens = 1.5

focal length of lens is given as

\frac{1}{f} = (n-1) (\frac{1}{R_1} - \frac{1}{R_1})

Putting all value to get focal length value

\frac{1}{f} = (1.5 -1) \frac{1}{20}

\frac{1}{f} =\frac{0.5}{20}

f = 40 cm

there is no change can be seen between two condition. image will form at 40 cm from lens

when an incandescent light bulb is turned on, its thin wire filament heats up quickly. as the temperature of this wire filament
Leno4ka [110]

Well, we usually assume that the resistance of a circuit component
is constant and doesn't change.  But the truth is that for anything
that conducts current, its resistance always increases somewhat
when it warms up. 

For things like light bulbs, electric toasters, space heaters, electric
stove burners, the heat coils in a blow-dryer ... anything that's
designed to be really hot when it's doing its job ... the resistance
of those things increases significantly when they come up to their
operating temperatures.

According to x-ray observations, the space between galaxies in a galaxy cluster is?
crimeas [40]

According to x-ray observations, the space between galaxies in a galaxy cluster is very hot. It is because the matter between galaxies (often called the intergalactic medium) is mostly hot, ionized hydrogen with bits of heavier elements such as carbon, oxygen and silicon thrown in.

Massive structures are collapsing than at earlier times. Large collapsing structures lead to higher velocity intergalactic shocks and, as a result, significant intergalactic shock heating, with some gas heated well above the 10^{4} K temperatures.

Heating also occurs as galaxies expel out most of the gas that fell into them. The final product is a warm/hot phase, with temperatures of > 10^{5} K.

Now, Let's know how do you use X-rays to make space observations?

X-radiation is absorbed by the Earth's atmosphere, so instruments to detect X-rays must be taken to high altitude by balloons, sounding rockets, and satellites.

Answer:

(a) 8 V, (b) 144000 V, (c) 2 x 10^(-8) C

Explanation:

(a) charge, q = 5 μC , Work, W = 40 x 10-^(-6) J

The electric potential is given by

W = q V

40\times10^{-6}=5 \times10^{-6}\times V\\\\V = 8 V

(b)

charge, q = 8 x 10^(-6) C, distance, r = 50 cm = 0.5 m

Let the potential is V.

V =\frac{k q}{r}\\\\V =\frac{9\times 10^{9}\times 8\times 10^{-6}}{0.5}\\\\V =144000 V

(c)

Work, W = 8 x 10^(-5) J, Potential difference, V = 4000 V

Let the charge is q.

W= q V

8\times10^{-5}= q\times 4000\\\\q =2\times 10^{-8} C

The temperature scale which starts at absolute zero is the _____.
oksian1 [2.3K]
The temperature scale which starts at absolute zero is the Kelvin scale. The correct option in respect to the given question is the last option. William Thompson was the British scientist and inventor that invented the Kelvin scale. William Thompson was also popularly known as Lord Kelvin.His discovery of the Kelvin scale is considered one among the three best scales in use for measuring temperatures.Each measuring unit of this scale is never called a degree but a Kelvin. This specialized scale gives the option of measuring temperature in both centigrade and Fahrenheit.
