The mass of the particles that a river can transport is proportional to the sixth power of the speed of the river. A certain riv

er normally flows at a speed of 1 meter per second. What must its speed be in order to transport the particles that are twice as massive as usual?

Answer:

1.122 m/s

Explanation:

So usually a river with a speed of 1 meters per second can transport particle that weighs:

1^6 = 1 kg

If the particle is twice as massive as usual, then its weights would be 1 * 2 = 2kg

This means the river must be flowing at a speed of

2^{\frac{1}{6}} = 1.122 m/s

Answer:

The last option.

Explanation:

Since you are going down, the gravitational potential energy would go down too. Thus, the gravitational potential energy decreases.

Since the gravitational potential energy is converted to kinetic energy when you move down, there is an increase in kinetic energy.

A convex, or converging, lens with a focal length of 34 cm is used to observe an image of an apple than is 80 cm away from the l
Hatshy [7]

The image distance is 59.2 cm and the image is real and small.

<h3>Image distance</h3>

The distance of the image formed by the convex or converging lens is determined by applying the following lens equation.

1/f = 1/u + 1/v

where;

  • f is the focal length = 34 cm
  • u is the object distance = 80 cm
  • v is the image distance = ?

1/v = 1/f - 1/u

1/v = 1/34 - 1/80

1/v = 0.0294 - 0.0125

1/v = 0.0169

v = 1/0.0169

v = 59.2 cm

Thus, the image distance is 59.2 cm and the image is real and small.
