oduces a virtual inverted image. B. A converging lens always produces a real inverted image. C. A converging lens sometimes produces a real erect image. D. A diverging lens produces a virtual erect image only if the object is located within the focal point of the lens. E. A diverging lens always produces a virtual erect image.

Answer:

E) true. The image is always virtual and erect

Explanation:

In this exercise we are asked to find the correct statements,

for this we can use the constructor equation

     1 / f = 1 / p + 1 / q

where f is the focal length, p the distance to the object and q the distance to the image

In diverging lenses, the focal length is negative and the image is virtual and erect

In convergent lenses, the positive focal length, if the object is farther than the focal length, the image is real and inverted, and if the object is at a shorter distance than the focal length, the image is virtual and straight.

With this analysis let's review each statement

A) False. The image is right

B) False. The type of image depends on where the object is with respect to the focal length

C) False. The real image is always inverted

D) False. The image is always virtual

E) true. The image is always virtual and erect

A speed boat travels from the dock to the first buoy a distance of 20 meters in 18 seconds it began the trip at a speed of 0 m/s
Lunna [17]

Answer:

1.11 m/s

Explanation:

The motion of the boat is an example of accelerated motion, since the velocity is not constant. However, we don't need to find the acceleration, because we are only interested in the average velocity of the boat, which is given by:

v=\frac{d}{t}

where d is the total distance covered and t the time taken. In this problem, the boat covered a distance of d = 20 m and it takes t = 18 s, therefore the average velocity is

v=\frac{20 m}{18 s}=1.11 m/s

How fast would you have to travel on the surface of earth at the equator to keep up with the sun (that is, so that the sun would
professor190 [17]

Answer: 1037 miles per hour

Explanation: In order to see the sun in the same position in the sky, you would have to travel against the speed of rotation of the earth, because this is what causes the sun to appear in a constantly changing position.

Because of this, we will have to calculate the speed of rotation of the earth. To get started, we must know the circumference of the earth. Assuming the circumference formula for a sphere,

Circumference=2\pi R

Where R is the radius of the earth, we find that the perimeter of the earth is approximately 24881 miles. The equation to calculate speed is given by

v=\frac{Distance}{Time}

Because the earth completes one rotation in 24 hours, we have to find the speed of rotation as the perimeter of the earth divided by 24 hours.

The obtained result is 1037 miles per hour.

You would have to travel at 1037 miles per hour in the direction opposite to the direction the rotation is ocurring in.

Please help me with a speech.The topic of my speech is Passion.​
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Passion

For me, standing on the summit of Mt Everest was the result of following a process. The process of mountaineering. I love mountaineering. I am passionate about it. I love the months of planning for an expedition, the months of sweating and training to prepare my body physically. The meticulous preparation of my equipment. Most of all I love the huge mental challenge I have to overcome before each climb to confront my own fear. All these reasons are why I climb, they are why I climbed Mt Everest and that is why I continue to climb.

Passion is an enormously powerful force. It gives us the strength to get through hard times and setbacks. It gives us strength to overcome our fears, to ignore what other people think of us, to be disciplined and make sacrifices in pursuit of our dreams. Passionate people do not want to take shortcuts – they consider that ‘learning the process’ is an important part of the journey.

In mountaineering it’s easy to spot those who are not passionate about the process. They want to stand on top of the mountain but they are not really interested in the process of climbing the mountain. I feel for these people. Success without hard work is a hollow, empty feeling. They never last long in the sport.

Just as in life, successful mountaineers are the ones who are passionate. They are not there just to stand on the summit. Their passion gives them the energy to work the hardest, fight the longest, and in the words of Winston Churchill “never, never. never give-up”.

Is this statement true or false? The next generation of nuclear power plants being built in California and South Africa are even
alexira [117]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Modern safer and cheaper nuclear reactors can not only meet the range of our long term energy demands, they can also fight global warming.

Modern techniques provide ways to reduce radioactive waste amount. "A closed fuel cycle may be switched on for new kinds of nuclear plants. Alternatively, the waste is chemically dissuaded to transform the reusable element into fuel. This implies that nuclear waste would not be buried.
