Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Explanation:

(a) The given figure is a convex lens.

(b) In this figure, the object is placed between F and optical center of a lens. Convex lens is a converging lens. It converges the beam of light falling on it after reflection. The image is formed on the same side of the lens as the object.

The formed image is enlarged and it is virtual and erect.

(i) Type : virtual

(ii) Orientation : upright

(iii) Size : Enlarged

A sound wave moving with a speed of 1500 m/s is sent from a submarine to the ocean floor. It reflects off the
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

the distance between the submarine and the ocean floor is 11,250 m

Explanation:

Given;

speed of the wave, v = 1500 m/s

time of motion of the wave, t = 15 s

The time taken to receive the echo is calculated as;

time \ of \ motion \ (t) = \frac{total \ distance }{speed \ of \ wave} = \frac{2d}{v}  \\\\2d = vt\\\\d = \frac{vt}{2} \\\\d = \frac{1500 \times 15}{2} \\\\d = 11,250 \ m

Therefore, the distance between the submarine and the ocean floor is 11,250 m

pav-90 [236]

Answer:

44cm x 22cm

Explanation:

u= 10 cm

v= 1.1 cm

m=v/u= 1.1/10

m=11

A soccer ball moving with an initial speed of 1.8 m/s is kicked with a
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

7.0 m

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Initial speed of the ball (u): 1.8 m/s

Acceleration (a): 6.1 m/s²

Final speed of the ball (v): 9.4 m/s

Step 2: Calculate the displacement (s) of the ball

The ball is moving with a uniformly accelerated rectilinear motion. We can calculate the displacement using the following suvat equation.

v² = u² + 2 × a × s

s = (v² - u²)/2 × a

s = [(9.4 m/s)² - (1.8 m/s)²]/2 × 6.1 m/s²

s = 7.0 m
