A thin double convex glass lens with an index of 1.56 while surrounded by air has a 10 cm focal length. If it is placed under wa

ter, which has an index of 1.33, 100 cm beyond a small fish, what is the focal length of the lens in water?

Explanation:

Formula which holds true for a leans with radii R_{1} and R_{2} and index refraction n is given as follows.

          \frac{1}{f} = (n - 1) [\frac{1}{R_{1}} - \frac{1}{R_{2}}]

Since, the lens is immersed in liquid with index of refraction n_{1}. Therefore, focal length obeys the following.  

            \frac{1}{f_{1}} = \frac{n - n_{1}}{n_{1}} [\frac{1}{R_{1}} - \frac{1}{R_{2}}]  

             \frac{1}{f(n - 1)} = [\frac{1}{R_{1}} - \frac{1}{R_{2}}]

and,       \frac{n_{1}}{f(n - n_{1})} = \frac{1}{R_{1}} - \frac{1}{R_{2}}

or,          f_{1} = \frac{fn_{1}(n - 1)}{(n - n_{1})}

              f_{w} = \frac{10 \times 1.33 \times (1.56 - 1)}{(1.56 - 1.33)}

                          = 32.4 cm

Using thin lens equation, we will find the focal length as follows.

             \frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{s_{o}} + \frac{1}{s_{i}}

Hence, image distance can be calculated as follows.

       \frac{1}{s_{i}} = \frac{1}{f} - \frac{1}{s_{o}} = \frac{s_{o} - f}{fs_{o}}

              s_{i} = \frac{fs_{o}}{s_{o} - f}

             s_{i} = \frac{32.4 \times 100}{100 - 32.4}

                       = 47.9 cm

Therefore, we can conclude that the focal length of the lens in water is 47.9 cm.

A 27 kg bear slides, from rest, 14 m down a lodgepole pine tree, moving with a speed of 6.1 m/s just before hitting the ground.
Nadusha1986 [10]
<h2>Thus the force of friction is 235 N</h2>

Explanation:

When the bear was at the height of 14 m . Its potential energy = m g h

here m is the mass of bear , g is acceleration due to gravity and h is the height .

Thus P.E =  27 x 10 x 14 = 3780 J

The K.E of the bear just before hitting = \frac{1}{2} m v²

=   \frac{1}{2} x 27 x ( 6.1 )²  = 490 J

The force of friction f = P.E - K.E = 3290 J

Because the work done = Force x Distance

Thus frictional force = \frac{3290}{14} = 235 N

A cylindrical storage tank has a radius of 1.35 m. When filled to a height of 3.45 m, it holds 14,014 kg of a liquid industrial
Kruka [31]

Answer:

709.93 kg/m³

Explanation:

Density: This can be defined as the ratio of the mass of a body to the volume of that body. The S.I unit of density is kg/m³

From the question above,

D = m/v.............................. Equation 1

Where D = density, m = mass, v = volume.

Note: The volume of the liquid is equal to the volume of the height occupied by the liquid in the container

Since the tank is cylindrical,

v = πr²h........................ Equation 2

Where r = radius of the the tank, h = height of the liquid in the tank

Substitute equation 2 into equation 1

D = m/(πr²h)............... Equation 3

Given: m = 14014 kg, r = 1.35 m, h = 3.45 m, π = 3.14

Substitute into equation 3

D = 14014/(3.14×1.35²×3.45)

D = 14014/19.74

D = 709.93 kg/m³

Give Example of mental flexibility
Inessa [10]

Answer:

If you ring the doorbell and no one opens the door, you'll infer that no one is home rather than continuing to ring the doorbell to an empty house. Being able to understand this and look for another solution is another example of mental flexibility.

Read the excerpt from " Crossing the Brooklyn Ferry." Flood-tide below me! I see you face to face! Clouds of the west – sun ther
Damm [24]

Answer:

It demonstrates that the narrator is surrounded by nature.

Explanation:

Walt Whitman's "Crossing the Brooklyn Ferry" is a free verse poem written about the speaker's return trip on a ferry. He talks about his daily commute on the Brooklyn ferry, like the other commuters, and how they all share the same experience.

The given lines are from the very first stanza of the poem. The speaker repeats<em> "face-to-face" </em>when talking about nature. He sees the <em>"flood-tide below"</em> and the <em>"clouds"</em> high in the sky. This repetition demonstrates that he is surrounded by nature, amidst the throng of people around him. This shows the speaker's attitude of seeing the beauty of nature in any way he can, despite the bustle of commuting from Brooklyn to Manhattan.

Thus, the correct answer is the second option.
