Physics

1 answer:

Answer:

Explanation:

The Answer is Concave. Concave images make images smaller, they refract the light rays in many directions, causing the original image to shrink. This is why shortsighted people wear concave lenses. Convex lenses, the other type of diverging lenses, cause the image to be larger, because it concentrates the image in a specific point. That is how a magnifying glass works.

A hockey puck is hit on a frozen lake and starts moving with a speed of 13.60 m/s. Exactly 6.2 s later, its speed is 7.20 m/s. (

stellarik [79]

Answer:

-1.03 m/s²

Explanation:

Acceleration: This can be defined as the rate of change of velocity. The S. I unit of acceleration is m/s².

Mathematically, acceleration is expressed as

a = (v-u)/t ........................ Equation 1

Where a = acceleration, v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, t = time.

Given: u = 13.60 m/s, v = 7.20 m/s t = 6.2 s.

Substituting into equation 2

a = (7.20-13.60)/6.2

a = -6.4/6.2

a = -1.03 m/s²

Note: a is negative because, the hockey puck is decelerating.

Hence the average acceleration = -1.03 m/s²

A 900 kg car moves around a 500 m radius curve at 25.0 m/s. What is the centripetal force on

Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

9375 N

Explanation:

From the question,

Centripetal force (F) = mv²/r.................. Equation 1

Where m = mass of the car, v = velocity of the car, r = radius of the curve.

Given: m = 900 kg, r = 600 m, v = 25 m/s

Substitute these values into equation 1

F = (900×25²)/600

F = 9375 N.

Hence the centripetal force on the car is 9375 N

Two homogeneous bodies of the same volume

lord [1]

Answer:

No, it is not necessary for them to have same mass.

Explanation:

Let both bodies have a density d1 and d2 respectively.

Since their volumes are equal V1 = V2

we know that, https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7Bmass%7D%7Bvolume%7D

Hence, d1 = and d2 =

Taking the ratio of densities,we get

This implies that unless the bodies have same densities, the mass of the two bodies will not be same.

Kim throws a beach ball up in the air. It reaches its maximum height 0.50s later. We can ignore air resistance. What was the bea

notka56 [123]

Answer:

The beach ball's velocity at the moment it was tossed into the air is <u>4.9 m/s.</u>

Explanation:

Given:

Time taken by the ball to reach maximum height is, $t=0.50\ s$

We know that, velocity of an object at the highest point is always zero. So, final velocity of the ball is, $v=0\ m/s$

Also, acceleration acting on the ball is always due to gravity. So, acceleration of the ball is, $a=g=-9.8\ m/s^2$

The negative sign is used as acceleration is a vector and it acts in the downward direction.

Now, we have the equation of motion relating initial velocity, final velocity, acceleration and time given as:

$v=u+at$

Where, 'u' is the initial velocity.

Plug in the given values and solve for 'u'. This gives,

$0=u-9.8(0.5)\\u=9.8\times 0.5\\u=4.9\ m/s$

Therefore, the beach ball's velocity at the moment it was tossed into the air is 4.9 m/s
