Answer: The correct answer is "it would make the lens stronger".

Explanation:

The power of the lens is defined as the reciprocal of the focal length. If the focal length of the smaller then the power of the lens will more and vice versa.

The power of the lens is measured in Diopter.

More the power of the lens, the stronger the lens would be. The power of the lens has an ability to bend the light. Greater the power of the lens, more the refraction of the light will be.

If the focal length of the convex lens is decreased then the convex lens would make the lens stronger.

Therefore, the correct option is "it would make the lens stronger".

<h3>Answer;</h3>

<u>It would make the lens stronger. </u>

<h3>Explanation;</h3>
  • The focal length is the distance between the optical center or the center of the lens to the focal point of a convex or concave lens.
  • The power of the convex lens is lens ability to undertake refraction or bend light. It is given as the reciprocal of focal length.
  • Power of the lens = 1/ f; therefore the smaller the focal length the higher the power and the larger the focal length the lower the power.
  • Thus; decreasing the focal length of a convex lens makes the lens stronger.

sineoko [7]

Answer:

302129m

Explanation:

Using s= ut + 1/2at²

But u= 0

So

S= 1/2(3.1)(441.5)²

=302129m

If Weight=mg and Force=ma, and the only force acting on an object is gravity, then the masses cancel each other out and you are
gregori [183]

When g=a, that means everything on earth fall at the same rate.

<h3>Why does everything fall to the earth at the same rate?</h3>

As such, all objects free fall at the same rate regardless of their mass. Because the 9.8 N/kg gravitational field at Earth's surface causes a 9.8 m/s/s acceleration of any object placed there, we often call this ratio the acceleration of gravity.

<h3>Why is gravity equal to acceleration?</h3>

When objects fall to the ground, gravity causes them to accelerate. Acceleration is a change in velocity, and velocity, in turn, is a measure of the speed and direction of motion. Gravity causes an object to fall toward the ground at a faster and faster velocity the longer the object falls.

The difference between the speed of sound n air at 0°C and the speed of sound in air at 20°c is that... A. Cooler air molecules
sergejj [24]
Heat, like sound, is kinetic energy. Molecules at higher temperatures heave more energy, thus they can vibrate faster. Since the molecules vibrate faster, sound waves can travel more quickly. 

So the answer is A.
