Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Q1=-2.72μC

At the position r1 =(3 , 4.591)m

Q2=1.600 μC

Located at (-2.626 m , 0)

Let the point where the electric potential will be zero be (x, y)

Therefore,

r1=(3-x, 4.952-y)

r2=(-2.626-x, -y)

Then, electric potential at that point is given as

V1+V2=0

Then,

KQ1/r1 +KQ2/r2=0

Divide through by k

Q1/r1+Q2/r2=0

-2.72/(3-x, 4.952-y) + 1.6/(-2.626-x, -y)=0

2.72/(3-x, 4.952-y) =1.6/(-2.626-x, -y)

For x axis

2.72/(3-x)=1.6/(-2.626-x)

Cross multiply

2.72(-2.626-x)=1.6(3-x)

-7.14272-2.72x=4.8-1.6x

-2.72x+1.6x=4.8+7.14272

-1.12x=11.94272

x=-11.94272/1.12

x=-10.663m

For y axis

2.72/(3-x, 4.952-y) =1.6/(-2.626-x, -y)

2.72/(4.952-y)=1.6/-y

Cross multiply

-2.72y=1.6(4.952-y)

-2.72y=7.9232-1.6y

-2.72y+1.6y=7.9232

-1.12y=7.9232

y=7.9232/-1.12

y=-7.074m

(x, y)=(-10.663, -7.074)m

When an object is placed 110 cm from a diverging thin lens, its image is found to be 55 cm from the lens. The lens is removed, a
Kazeer [188]

Explanation:

Given that,

Object distance u= -110 cm

Image distance v= 55 cm

We need to calculate the focal length for diverging lens

Using formula of lens

\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{v}-\dfrac{1}{u}

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{1}{-f}=\dfrac{1}{55}-\dfrac{1}{-110}

\dfrac{1}{f}=-\dfrac{3}{110}

f=-36.6\ cm

The focal length of the diverging lens is 36.6 cm.

Now given a thin lens with same magnitude of focal length 36.6 cm is replaced.    

Here, The object distance is again the same.

We need to calculate the image distance for converging lens

Using formula of lens

\dfrac{1}{36.6}=\dfrac{1}{v}-\dfrac{1}{-110}

Here, focal length is positive for converging lens

\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{36.6}-\dfrac{1}{110}

\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{367}{20130}

v=54.85\ cm

The distance of the image is 54.85 cm from converging lens.

Hence, This is the required solution.

The pan flute is a musical instrument consisting of a number of closed-end tubes of different lengths. When the musician blows o
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

  f = 276.6 Hz

Explanation:

This musical instrument can be approximated to a tube system where each tube has one end open and the other closed.

In the closed part there is a node and in the open part a belly or antinode. Therefore the wavelength is

          L = λ/ 4

speed is related to wavelength and frequency

          v = λ f

          λ = v / f

we substitute

          L = v / 4f

          f = v / 4L

the speed of sound at 20ºC is

          v = 343 m / s

let's calculate

          f = \frac{343 }{4 \ 0.31}

          f = 276.6 Hz
