electric forces can act at a distance.

When Jim walked across the carpeted floor, his body gained electrons from the carpet. The presence of these electrons generated a force between his finger and the doorknob. Since he did not need to actually touch the doorknob for the electrons to be pulled from his finger, this demonstrates that electric forces can act at a distance.

SOUND IS A FORM OF WAVE.LIST AT LEAST 3 REASONS TO SUPPORT IDEA THAT SOUND IS A WAVE.
algol [13]
1 The question asks for a certain quantity of examples in a list (Name 6 factors that contributed to the start of World War I, What 3 subatomic particles constitute an atom? etc).
2 The question is academically precise and, therefore, indecisive in the wording (What are the 2 kinds of loading most professional engineers and academics in the field of engineering today generally consider to be relevant in most cases when considering typical types of structure usually made of common materials using well-understand methods?)
3 The question challenges the answerer to defend a position as opposed to merely rattling off a list based on knowledge alone, thereby invoking higher levels of Bloom's Taxonomy. (What are 4 arguments that could be used to defend arguments made by the physicists of the day that electromagnetic waves must move through an illusive substance called 'the ether?)

A convex lens has a focal length of 16.5 cm. Where on the lens axis should an object be placed in order to get a virtual, enlarg
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

Object should be placed at a distance, u = 7.8 cm

Given:

focal length of convex lens, F = 16.5 cm

magnification, m = 1.90

Solution:

Magnification of lens, m = -\frac{v}{u}

where

u = object distance

v = image distance

Now,

1.90 = \frac{v}{u}

v = - 1.90u

To calculate the object distance, u by lens maker formula given by:

\frac{1}{F} = \frac{1}{u}+ \frac{1}{v}

\frac{1}{16.5} = \frac{1}{u}+ \frac{1}{- 1.90u}

\frac{1}{16.5} = \frac{1.90 - 1}{1.90u}

\frac{1}{16.5} = \frac{ 0.90}{1.90u}

u = 7.8 cm

Object should be placed at a distance of 7.8 cm on the axis of the lens to get virtual and enlarged image.
