Answer:
A) q = -8.488 cm
, B) m = 0.29
Explanation:
A) For this exercise in geometric optics, we will use the equation of the constructor
where p and q are the distance to the object and image, respectively and f is the focal length
in our case the distance the object is p = 29 cm the focal length of a diverging lens is negative and indicates that it is f = - 12 cm

we calculate

= - 0.1178
q = -8.488 cm
the negative sign indicates that the image is virtual
B) the magnification is given

we substitute
m =
m = 0.29
the positive sign indicates that the image is right
Answer:
Explanation:
Using Boyles law
Boyle's law states that, the volume of a given gas is inversely proportional to it's pressure, provided that temperature is constant
V ∝ 1 / P
V = k / P
VP = k
Then,
V_1 • P_1 = V_2 • P_2
So, if we want an increase in pressure that will decrease volume of mercury by 0.001%
Then, let initial volume be V_1 = V
New volume is V_2 = 0.001% of V
V_2 = 0.00001•V
Let initial pressure be P_1 = P
So,
Using the equation above
V_1•P_1 = V_2•P_2
V × P = 0.00001•V × P_2
Make P_2 subject of formula by dividing be 0.00001•V
P_2 = V × P / 0.00001 × V
Then,
P_2 = 100000 P
So, the new pressure has to be 10^5 times of the old pressure
Now, using bulk modulus
Bulk modulus of mercury=2.8x10¹⁰N/m²
bulk modulus = P/(-∆V/V)
-∆V = 0.001% of V
-∆V = 0.00001•V
-∆V = 10^-5•V
-∆V/V = 10^-5
Them,
Bulk modulus = P / (-∆V/V)
2.8 × 10^10 = P / 10^-5
P = 2.8 × 10^10 × 10^-5
P = 2.8 × 10^5 N/m²
Answer:
D = 2.38 m
Explanation:
This exercise is a diffraction problem where we must be able to separate the license plate numbers, so we must use a criterion to know when two light sources are separated, let's use the Rayleigh criterion, according to this criterion two light sources are separated if The maximum diffraction of a point coincides with the first minimum of the second point, so we can use the diffraction equation for a slit
a sin θ = m λ
Where the first minimum occurs for m = 1, as in these experiments the angle is very small, we can approximate the sine to the angle
θ = λ / a
Also when we use a circular aperture instead of slits, we must use polar coordinates, which introduce a numerical constant
θ = 1.22 λ / D
Where D is the circular tightness
Let's apply this equation to our case
D = 1.22 λ / θ
To calculate the angles let's use trigonometry
tan θ = y / x
θ = tan⁻¹ y / x
θ = tan⁻¹ (4.30 10⁻² / 140 10³)
θ = tan⁻¹ (3.07 10⁻⁷)
θ = 3.07 10⁻⁷ rad
Let's calculate
D = 1.22 600 10⁻⁹ / 3.07 10⁻⁷
D = 2.38 m
We don't know Carter, and we don't know where he is or what
he's doing, so I'm taking a big chance speculating on an answer.
I'm going to say that if Carter is pretty much just standing there,
or, let's say, lying on the ground taking a nap, then the force of
the ground acting on him is precisely exactly equal to his weight.
