An object, initially at rest moves 250m in 17s. What is it's acceleration?

1 answer:

8 0

With the values you've given, only velocity can be found.
Acceleration is rate of change of velocity

d= 250s
t= 17s

a= d/t
= $\frac{250}{17}$
= 4.7 $\frac{m}{s}$

A converging lens of focal length 20 cm is used to form a real image 1.0 m away from the lens. How far from the lens is the obje

Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

0.25 m

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using the lens equation:

$\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{p}+\frac{1}{q}$

where

f is the focal length

p is the distance of the object from the lens

q is the distance of the image from the lens

In this problem, we have

f = +20 cm=+0.20 m (the focal length is positive for a converging lens)

q = +1.0 m (the image distance is positive for a real image)

Solving the equation for p, we find

$\frac{1}{p}=\frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{q}=\frac{1}{0.20 m}-\frac{1}{1 m}=4 m^{-1}\\p=\frac{1}{4 m^{-1}}=0.25 m$
