Problem 1: Spherical mirrorConsider a spherical mirror of radius 2 m, and rays which go parallel to the optic axis. What is thep

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

1) iii i= 1m, 2) iii and iv, 3) i = f₂ (L-f₁) / (L - (f₁ + f₂))

Explanation:

Problem 1

For this problem we use two equations the equations of the focal distance in mirrors

f = r / 2

f = 2/2

f = 1 m

The builder's equation

1 / f = 1 / o + 1 / i

Where f is the focal length, "o and i" are the distance to the object and the image respectively.

For a ray to arrive parallel to the surface it must come from infinity, whereby o = ∞ and 1 / o = 0

1 / f = 0 + 1 / i

i = f

i = 1 m

The image is formed at the focal point

The correct answer is iii

Problem 2

For this problem we have two possibilities the lens is convergent or divergent, in both cases the back face (R₂) must be flat

Case 1 Flat lens - convex (convergent)

R₂ = infinity

R₁ > 0

Cas2 Flat-concave (divergent) lens

R₂ = infinity

R₁ <0

Why the correct answers are iii and iv

Problem 3

For a thick lens the rays parallel to the first surface fall in their focal length (f₁), this is the exit point for the second surface whereby the distance to the object is o = L –f₁, let's apply the constructor equation to this second surface

1 / f₂ = 1 / (L-f₁) + 1 / i

1 / i = 1 / f₂ - 1 / (L-f₁)

1 / i = (L-f₁-f₂) / f₂ (L-f₁)

i = f₂ (L-f₁) / (L - (f₁ + f₂))

This is the image of the rays that enter parallel to the first surface

How does Mercury's close proximity to the sun and thin atmosphere affect its ability to maintain liquid water

alekssr [168]

Answer

A thin atmosphere does not supply much oxygen, and the heat from the sun would evaporate it, because mercury is close to the sun.

How long does it take for a train to increase its velocity from 10m/s to 40m/s if it accelerates at 3 m/s

DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Givens

Vi = 10 m/s

Vf = 40 m/s

a = 3 m/s^2

Formula

a = (vf - vi) /t Substitute the givens into this formuls

Solution

3 = (40 - 10) / t Multiply both sides by t

3*t = t(40 - 10)/t Combine. Cancel t's on the right

3*t = 30 Divide by 3

3t/3 = 30 / 3

Answer: t = 10 seconds.

A diode for which the forward voltage drop is 0.7 V at 1.0 mA is operated at 0.5 V. What is the value of the current

Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

the current value is $0.335 \mu A$

Explanation:

The computation of the value of the current is given below:

$z_i = I_s e^{\frac{0.7}{ut} }= 10^{-3}\\\\Z_z = I_s e^{\frac{0.5}{ut} }\\\\\frac{Z_z}{Z_i}= \frac{Z_z}{10^{-3}} = e^{\frac{0.5\times 0.7}{0.025} }\\\\= 0.335 \mu A$

Hence, the current value is $0.335 \mu A$

Two blocks of masses M 1 and M 2 are connected by a massless string that passes over a massless pulley as shown in the figure. M

stealth61 [152]

The mass M1 is 7.8 kg

Explanation:

Block M1 is hanging on the string while block M2 is on the frictionless ramp.

We have to write the equations of motion for the two blocks.

- For M1, the only two forces acting on it are the force of gravity $M_1 g$ (downward) and the tension in the string T (upward). So we can write

$M_1 g - T = M_1 a$

where

$M_1$ is the mass of the block

$g=9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity

$a$ is the acceleration of the system

- For M2, the only two forces acting on it are the tension in the string T (acting up along the ramp) and the component of the gravity acting down along the ramp, $M_2 g sin \theta$ . So the equation of motion is
