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.

I attached an image to illustrate this situation

What is horoscope? what is its uses
Lemur [1.5K]
What is horoscope?
A forecast of a person's future, typically including delineation of character and circumstances, based on the relative positions of the stars and planets at the time of that person's birth.

   *
A short forecast for people born under a particular sign, especially as published in a newspaper or magazine.
 
    *
A birth chart.
 

What is its uses?
It can also be calculated for an event, a question, and even a country. Symbols are used to represent planets, signs, and geometric connections called aspects. In most cases, the horoscope in Western astrology is drawn on a circular wheel.

The equation below is for potassium oxide.
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer: The ratio of atoms of potassium to ratio of atoms of oxygen is 4:2

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed, and remains conserved. The mass of products must be same as that of the reactants.

Thus the number of atoms of each element must be same on both sides of the equation so as to keep the mass same and thus balanced chemical equations are written.

K exists as atoms and oxygen exist as molecule which consists of 2 atoms. The ratio of number of atoms on both sides of the reaction are same and thus the ratio of atoms of potassium to ratio of atoms of oxygen is 4:2.

Steam in a heating system flows through tubes whose outer diameter is 5 cm and whose walls are maintained at a temperature of 13
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

5945.27 W per meter of tube length.

Explanation:

Let's assume that:

  • Steady operations exist;
  • The heat transfer coefficient (h) is uniform over the entire fin surfaces;
  • Thermal conductivity (k) is constant;
  • Heat transfer by radiation is negligible.

First, let's calculate the heat transfer (Q) that occurs when there's no fin in the tubes. The heat will be transferred by convection, so let's use Newton's law of cooling:

Q = A*h*(Tb - T∞)

A is the area of the section of the tube,

A = π*D*L, where D is the diameter (5 cm = 0.05 m), and L is the length. The question wants the heat by length, thus, L= 1m.

A = π*0.05*1 = 0.1571 m²

Q = 0.1571*40*(130 - 25)

Q = 659.73 W

Now, when the fin is added, the heat will be transferred by the fin by convection, and between the fin and the tube by convection, thus:

Qfin = nf*Afin*h*(Tb - T∞)

Afin = 2π*(r2² - r1²) + 2π*r2*t

r2 is the outer radius of the fin (3 cm = 0.03 m), r1 is the radius difference of the fin and the tube ( 0.03 - 0.025 = 0.005 m), and t is the thickness ( 0.001 m).

Afin = 0.006 m²

Qfin = 0.97*0.006*40*(130 - 25)

Qfin = 24.44 W

The heat transferred at the space between the fin and the tube will be:

Qspace = Aspace*h*(Tb - T∞)

Aspace = π*D*S, where D is the tube diameter and S is the space between then,

Aspace = π*0.05*0.003 = 0.0005

Qspace = 0.0005*40*(130 - 25) = 1.98 W

The total heat is the sum of them multiplied by the total number of fins,

Qtotal = 250*(24.44 + 1.98) = 6605 W

So, the increase in heat is 6605 - 659.73 = 5945.27 W per meter of tube length.
