An object is situated to the left of a lens. A ray of light from the object is close to and parallel to the principal axis of th
e lens. The ray passes through the lens. Which one of the following statements is true?
The ray passes through a focal point of the lens only if the lens is a converging lens.
The ray passes through the lens without changing direction, no matter whether the lens is converging or diverging.
The ray crosses the principal axis at a distance from the lens equal to twice the focal length, no matter whether the lens is converging or diverging.
The ray passes through a focal point of the lens only if the lens is a diverging lens.
The ray passes through a focal point of the lens, no matter whether the lens is converging or diverging.

Answer:
The ray passes through a focal point of the lens only if the lens is a converging lens.
Explanation:
By the principles of geometric optics, we know that all rays parallel to the principal axis of converging lens, change its direction to a point situated in the axis of the lens. This last point is know as the focal point.
Hence, the only truth choice is:
The ray passes through a focal point of the lens only if the lens is a converging lens.

Answer:
speed of golf ball is 1.15 × m/s
and % of uncertainty in speed = 2.07 × %
Explanation:
given data
mass = 45.9 gram = 0.0459 kg
speed = 200 km/hr = 55.5 m/s
uncertainty position Δx = 1 mm = m
to find out
speed of the golf ball and % of speed of the golf ball
solution
we will apply here heisenberg uncertainty principle that is
uncertainty position ×uncertainty momentum ≥ ......1
Δx × ΔPx ≥
here uncertainty momentum ΔPx = mΔVx
and uncertainty velocity = ΔVx
and h = 6.626 × Js
so put here all these value in equation 1
× 0.0459 × ΔVx =
ΔVx = 1.15 × m/s
and
so % of uncertainty in speed = ΔV / m
% of uncertainty in speed = 1.15 × / 55.5
% of uncertainty in speed = 2.07 × %
