Answer:

It’s a false statement.

Explanation:

An object which does not allow to pass light through is called as opaque object. It creates a shadow when light falls on it.  While transparent object does allow to pass light though it and does not create shadow. From the above definitions, it is cleared that the given statement is false.

A small 12.00 g plastic ball is suspended by a string in a uniform, horizontal electric field. If the ball is in equilibrium whe
notsponge [240]

Answer:

Q = \frac{0.068}{E}

where E = electric field intensity

Explanation:

As we know that plastic ball is suspended by a string which makes 30 degree angle with the vertical

So here force due to electrostatic force on the charged ball is in horizontal direction along the direction of electric field

while weight of the ball is vertically downwards

so here we have

QE = F_x

mg = F_y

since string makes 30 degree angle with the vertical so we will have

tan\theta = \frac{F_x}{F_y}

tan30 = \frac{QE}{mg}

Q = \frac{mg}{E}tan30

Q = \frac{0.012\times 9.81}{E} tan30

Q = \frac{0.068}{E}

where E = electric field intensity

A radar antenna is tracking a satellite orbiting the earth. At a certain time, the radar screen shows the satellite to be 118 km
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

x component 60.85 m

y component 101.031 m

Explanation:

We have given distance r = 118 km

Angle which makes from ground = 58.9°

(a) X component of distance  is given by r_x=rcos\Theta =118\times cos58.9=118\times 0.5165=118=60.85m

(b) Y component of distance is given by r_Y=rcos\Theta =118\times sin58.9=118\times 0.8562=101.0316m

These are the x and y component of position vector

If the volume of a sample of gas is reduced at constant temperature, the average velocity of the molecules _______, the average
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

If the volume of a sample of gas is reduced at constant temperature, the average velocity of the molecules increases, the average force of an individual collision increases, and the average number of collisions with the wall, per unit area, per second increases.

As volume is reduced, the gas molecules come closer together, which increases the number of collisions between them and their collisions with the container walls. Also, since the distance traveled by each molecule between successive collision decreases, the molecule velocity doesn't decrease much within collisions as a result of which, the average velocity is higher compared to when the gas is stored in a larger volume. Finally, due to constant collisions, the direction of molecule travel changes rapidly owing to which the acceleration of molecules increases.

An object 5.Ocm in the length is placed at a distance of 20cm in front of convex mirror
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

Position = \frac{60}{7}\ cm behind the mirror

Nature = Virtual and Erect

Size = \frac{15}{7}\ cm : Diminished

Explanation:

Sign convention-Distance measured to the left of pole is negative and to the right of pole is positive.

Object distance = u = -20 cm

Focal length = f = Radius of curvature/2 = 30/2 = 15 cm

We have to use mirror formula to find image distance.

\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{v}=\frac{1}{f}\\ \frac{1}{-20}+\frac{1}{v}=\frac{1}{15}\\ \frac{1}{v}=\frac{7}{60}\\v=\frac{60}{7}\ cm

Since the image distance is positive, it is formed behind the mirror or a virtual image is formed.

Magnification = =\frac{h_{image}}{h_{object}}=-\frac{v}{u}=\frac{60}{7\times20}=\frac{3}{7}

Height of the object = 5 cm

Height of the image = 5\times\frac{3}{7}=\frac{15}{7}\ cm

Since the height of the image is positive and less than the size of object,it is erect and diminished.
