Answer:

Density is an important physical property of matter. It reflects how closely packed the particles of matter are. When particles are packed together more tightly, matter has greater density.

From the lens equation calculate the position of the following images produced by a convex lens.

fiasKO [112]

Explanation:

(i)

O is the object and I is the image.

The image formed is enlarged and it is erect. So the magnification will be positive (+) and greater than 1.

Refer above image. 1

(ii)

O is the object and I is the image.

The image formed is diminished and erect. So the magnification will be positive (+) and less than1.

Refer above image. 2

(iii)

The image will be formed as the 2F on the other side of the lens and it will be of same of the object.

Help me find the acceleration

ANEK [815]

a = 3.09 m/s²

<h3>Explanation</h3>

This question doesn't tell anything about how long it took for the car to go through 105 meters. As a result, the timeless suvat equation is likely what you need for this question.

In the timeless suvat equation,

$a = \dfrac{v^2 - u^2}{2\; x}$

where

$a$ is the acceleration of the car;
$v$ is the final velocity of the car;
$u$ is the initial velocity of the car; and
$x$ is the displacement of the car.

Note that v and u are velocities. Make sure that you include their signs in the calculation.

In this question,

$a$ is the unknown;
$v = -10.9 \; \text{m} \cdot \text{s}^{-2}$ ;
$u = -27.7 \; \text{m} \cdot \text{s}^{-2}$ ; and
$x = - 105 \; \text{m}$ .

Apply the timeless suvat equation:

$a = \dfrac{v^{2} - u^{2}}{2\; x}\\\phantom{a} = \dfrac{(-10.9)^{2} - (-27.7)^{2}}{2 \times (-105)}\\\phantom{a} = 3.09 \; \text{m} \cdot \text{s}^{-2}$ .

The value of $a$ is greater than zero, which is reasonable. Velocity of the car is negative, meaning that the car is moving backward. The car now moves to the back at a slower speed. Effectively it accelerates to the front. Its acceleration shall thus be positive.

The y-component of the force F which a person exerts on the handle of the box wrench is known to be 70 lb. Determine the x-compo

Yuri [45]

Answer:

Fx = 121.24lb

F = 140lb

Explanation:

Since we are not given the angles subtended by the force, we can assume it to be 30 degrees.

The y component of the force expressed by the formula:

Fy = Fsintheta

Given the y-component of the force F to bee 70lb

70lb = Fsintheta

Get magnitude of the force

F = 70/sin theta

F = 70/sin 30

F = 70/0.5

F = 140lb

Get the x-component of the force

Fx = Fcos theta

Fx = 140cos 30

Fx = 140(0.8660)

Fx = 1,212.4lb

Hence the x-component of the force sis 121.24lb

Note that the angle used was assumed. Other values can as well be used

How does surface currents would be affected if eArth didn't rotate

forsale [732]

Surface ocean currents are generally wind-driven. However, the rotation of the Earth affects the way the waters move through currents. Without rotation, currents may not exist.
