They should be bigger as if it is hot the tracks will expand as it is made of metal and then there is more room for it to expand or contract

A converging lens of focal length 20 cm is placed in contact with, and to the left of, a diverging lens of focal length 30 cm. I

scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Magnification will be equal to 3

Explanation:

We have given focal length of the converging lens $F_1=20cm$

Focal length of the diverging lens $F_2=30cm$

Object is placed 40 cm to the length of the converging lens d = 40 cm

Combination of the focal length will be equal to

$\frac{1}{F}=\frac{1}{F_1}+\frac{1}{F_2}$

$\frac{1}{F}=\frac{1}{20}+\frac{1}{-30}=\frac{1}{20}-\frac{1}{30}=\frac{1}{60}$

F = 60 cm

So combination of the focal length will be 60 cm

Magnification is given by

$M=\frac{F}{F-d}=\frac{60}{60-40}=3$

So magnification will be equal to 3

A point charge q1q1 is held stationary at the origin. A second charge q2q2 is placed at point aa, and the electric potential ene

Yuri [45]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

$U_{a} = 5.4 \times 10^{-8} J$

$W_{/text{a to b}} = -1.9 \times 10^{-8} J$

Electric potential energy ( $U_{b}$ ) = ?

Formula to calculate electric potential energy is as follows.

$U_{b} = U_{a} - W_{/text{a to b}}$

= $5.4 \times 10^{-8} J - (-1.9 \times 10^{-8} J)$

= $7.3 \times 10^{-8} J$

Thus, we can conclude that the electric potential energy of the pair of charges when the second charge is at point b is $7.3 \times 10^{-8} J$ .

Ditto sound waves espace room answers please I need this urgently

lord [1]

The actual question should be did the sound waves escape room?

Yes they can escape the room

Sound always needs a medium to travel through
If you close the room form all where that even air can't go outside you will be able to hear no sound coming from room .
