Answer:

15.75 cm

Explanation:

focal length of convex lens, f = + 9 cm

position of object, u = - 21 cm

Let the distance of image is v.

Use lens equation

1 / f = 1 / v - 1 / u

1 / 9 = 1 / v + 1 / 21

1 / v = 1 / 9 - 1 / 21 = (21 - 9) / (21 x 9)

1 / v = 12 / 189

v = 15.75 cm

Question 11 (1 point)
Ainat [17]

Answer:

gravitational potential energy.

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy (GPE) can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position above the earth surface.

Mathematically, gravitational potential energy is given by the formula;

G.P.E = mgh

Where,

G.P.E represents gravitational potential energy measured in Joules.

m represents the mass of an object.

g represents acceleration due to gravity measured in meters per seconds square.

h represents the height measured in meters.

This ultimately implies that, anytime there is height, the object must have gravitational potential energy.

Hence, an object possesses gravitational potential energy due to its height (position) and the earth's gravitational force.

N76 [4]

Answer:

59.4 meters

Explanation:

The correct question statement is :

A floor polisher has a rotating disk that has a 15-cm radius. The disk rotates at a constant angular velocity of 1.4 rev/s and is covered with a soft material that does the polishing. An operator holds the polisher in one place for 4.5 s, in order to buff an especially scuff ed area of the floor. How far (in meters) does a spot on the outer edge of the disk move during this time?

Solution:

We know for a circle of radius r and θ angle by an arc of length S at the center,

S=rθ

This gives

θ=S/r

also we know angular velocity

ω=θ/t    where t is time

or

θ=ωt

and we know

1 revolution =2π radians

From this we have

angular velocity ω = 1.4 revolutions per sec =  1.4×2π radians /sec = 1.4×3.14×2×= 8.8 radians / sec

Putting values of ω and time t in

θ=ωt

we have

θ= 8.8 rad / sec × 4.5 sec

θ= 396 radians

We are given radius r = 15 cm = 15 ×0.01 m=0.15 m (because 1 m= 100 cm and hence, 1 cm = 0.01 m)

put this value of θ and r  in

S=rθ

we have

S= 396 radians ×0.15 m=59.4 m
