The focal length of a lens is inversely proportional to the quantity (n-1), where n is the index of refraction of the lens of th

e material. The value of n, however, depends on the wavelength of the light that passes through the lens. For example, one type of flint glass has an index of refraction if n=1.572 for red light and n=1.605 in violet light. Now suppose a white object is placed 24.00cm in front of a lens made from this type of glass. If the red light reflected from this object produces a sharp image 55.00cm from the lens , where will the violet image be found?

Answer:

46.22 cm

Explanation:

The focal refraction, fr is given by

fr = \frac {c}{(1.572 -1)}  = \frac {c}{0 .572}  

The focal red light is given by

fv = \frac {c}{(1.605 - 1)} = \frac {c}{0.605}

\frac {fv}{fr} = \frac {0.572}{0 .605} = 0.945455

\frac {1}{fr} = \frac{1}{image} + \frac {1}{object} and making fr the subject we obtain

fr = \frac {image * object}{(image + object)} = \frac {24.00 * 55} {(24.0 + 55)} = 16.70886 cm

fv = 0.945455* 16.70886 cm = 15.79747 cm

image = \frac {object * f} {(object - f)} = \frac {15.79747 * 24.0}{(24.0 - 15.79747)} = 46.22222 cm

Therefore, violet image is approximately 46.22 cm

A fully loaded cart with a mass of 2200 kg starts from the top of a 12-meter hill on a roller coaster.
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

A. potential energy is 258720 Joule

Explanation:

A.Gravitational potential energy is: PE = m × g × h

velocity =  15.33 m/s when the car reaches the bottom of the hill.

where, m = mass

            g = acceleration due to gravity

            h = height from the bottom of hill.

The potential energy is : m×g×h

                                     =(2200×9.8×12)

                                     =258720 Joule

B. at the bottom of the hill, the potential energy is converted into kinetic energy so PE at top = KE at bottom

                    kinetic energy= \frac{1}{2}(m*v^{2})

where v = velocity

          m= mass

therefore,               v=\sqrt\frac{2*K.E}{m} {}

                         or,  v=\sqrt{\frac{2*258720}{2200} }

                         or,   v=15.33 m/s

if two point charges are separated by 1.5 cm and have charge values of 2.0 and -4.0, respectively, what is the value of the mutu
RUDIKE [14]

Complete question:

if two point charges are separated by 1.5 cm and have charge values of +2.0 and -4.0 μC, respectively, what is the value of the mutual force between them.

Answer:

The mutual force between the two point charges is 319.64 N

Explanation:

Given;

distance between the two point charges, r = 1.5 cm = 1.5 x 10⁻² m

value of the charges, q₁ and q₂ = 2 μC and - μ4 C

Apply Coulomb's law;

F = \frac{k|q_1||q_2|}{r^2}

where;

F is the force of attraction between the two charges

|q₁| and |q₂| are the magnitude of the two charges

r is the distance between the two charges

k is Coulomb's constant = 8.99 x 10⁹ Nm²/C²

F = \frac{k|q_1||q_2|}{r^2} \\\\F = \frac{8.99*10^9 *4*10^{-6}*2*10^{-6}}{(1.5*10^{-2})^2} \\\\F = 319.64 \ N

Therefore, the mutual force between the two point charges is 319.64 N

Why are different colors used to represent the floor of the ocean?
ZanzabumX [31]
The red, yellow, and green wavelengths of sunlight are absorbed by water molecules in the ocean. ... In coastal areas, runoff from rivers, resuspension of sand and silt from the bottom by tides, waves and storms and a number of other substances can change the color of the near-shore waters.
