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.

Three identical resistors are connected in parallel. The equivalent resistance increases by 630 when one resistor is removed and
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

each resistor is 540 Ω

Explanation:

Let's assign the letter R to the resistance of the three resistors involved in this problem. So, to start with, the three resistors are placed in parallel, which results in an equivalent resistance R_e defined by the formula:

\frac{1}{R_e}=\frac{1}{R} } +\frac{1}{R} } +\frac{1}{R} \\\frac{1}{R_e}=\frac{3}{R} \\R_e=\frac{R}{3}

Therefore, R/3 is the equivalent resistance of the initial circuit.

In the second circuit, two of the resistors are in parallel, so they are equivalent to:

\frac{1}{R'_e}=\frac{1}{R} +\frac{1}{R}\\\frac{1}{R'_e}=\frac{2}{R} \\R'_e=\frac{R}{2} \\

and when this is combined with the third resistor in series, the equivalent resistance (R''_e) of this new circuit becomes the addition of the above calculated resistance plus the resistor R (because these are connected in series):

R''_e=R'_e+R\\R''_e=\frac{R}{2} +R\\R''_e=\frac{3R}{2}

The problem states that the difference between the equivalent resistances in both circuits is given by:

R''_e=R_e+630 \,\Omega

so, we can replace our found values for the equivalent resistors (which are both in terms of R) and solve for R in this last equation:

\frac{3R}{2} =\frac{R}{3} +630\,\Omega\\\frac{3R}{2} -\frac{R}{3} = 630\,\Omega\\\frac{7R}{6} = 630\,\Omega\\\\R=\frac{6}{7} *630\,\Omega\\R=540\,\Omega

A line of dominos is knocked down. Which explanation is true?
Llana [10]

B: an increase in acceleration caused an increase in force.

This is based on the concept of force on an object.

Now, formula for force is commonly known as;

Force = mass × acceleration

Now, mass and acceleration are the input values that make the output which is the Force to either increase or decrease.

  • Now, for the line of dominoes to fall, it means that the force was so overwhelming that the dominoes couldn't resist it.

Now, this output which is the force became so much as a result of the increase in acceleration of the motion that triggered its movement.

Moreover, the force is directly proportional to the acceleration!

Thus, we can say that an increase in acceleration caused an increase in force.
