Answer:

Explanation:

R1 = + 11.7 cm

R2 = - 18.7 cm

n = 1.52

(a) Use lens maker formula

\frac{1}{f}=\left ( n-1 \right )\left ( \frac{1}{R_{1}}-\frac{1}{R_{2}} \right )

\frac{1}{f}=\left ( 1.52-1 \right )\left ( \frac{1}{11.7}}+\frac{1}{18.7} \right )

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{0.52\times 30.4}{218.79}

f = 13.84 cm

(b)

R1 = + 18.7 cm

R2 = - 11.7 cm

n = 1.52

(a) Use lens maker formula

\frac{1}{f}=\left ( n-1 \right )\left ( \frac{1}{R_{1}}-\frac{1}{R_{2}} \right )

\frac{1}{f}=\left ( 1.52-1 \right )\left ( \frac{1}{18.7}}+\frac{1}{11.7} \right )

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{0.52\times 30.4}{218.79}

f = 13.84 cm

____ [38]

The charge on each of the equally charged drops of hairspray willl be 7 × 10 ⁻¹³ C

<h3>What is Columb's law?</h3>

The force of attraction between two charges, according to Coulomb's law, is directly proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

Similar charges repel each other, whereas charges that are opposed attract each other.

Given data;

Electric force,F = 9 × 10 ⁻⁹ N

Distance between charges,d = 7 × 10⁻⁴ m

Chrge,q₁ = q₂ =q C

From Columb's law;

\rm F = K \frac{q_1q_2}{d^2} \\\\ 9 \times 10^{-9}  = 9 \times 10^9 \frac{q^2}{(7 \times 10^{-4})^2} \\\\ q^2 = 4.9 \times 10^{-25} \\\\  q = 7 \times 10^{-13} \ C

Hence the charge on each of the equally charged drops of hairspray willl be 7 × 10 ⁻¹³ C

A thin taut string is fixed at both ends and stretched along the horizontal x-axis with its left end at x = 0. It is vibrating i
Fofino [41]

Answer:

(a) Wavelength is 0.436 m

(b) Length is 0.872 m

(c) 11.518 m/s

Solution:

As per the question:

The eqn of the displacement is given by:

y(x, t) = (1.22 cm)sin[14.4 m^{- 1}x]cos[(166\ rad/s)t]          (1)

n = 4

Now,

We know the standard eqn is given by:

y = AsinKxcos\omega t           (2)

Now, on comparing eqn (1) and (2):

A = 1.22 cm

K = 14.4 m^{- 1}

\omega = 166\ rad/s

where

A = Amplitude

K = Propagation constant

\omega = angular velocity

Now, to calculate the string's wavelength,

(a) K = \frac{2\pi}{\lambda}

where

K = propagation vector

\lambda = \frac{2\pi}{K}

\lambda = \frac{2\pi}{14.4} = 0.436\ m

(b) The length of the string is given by:

l = \frac{n\lambda}{2}

l = \frac{4\times 0.436}{2} = 0.872\ m

(c)  Now, we first find the frequency of the wave:

\omega = 2\pi f

f = \frac{\omega}{2\pi}

f = \frac{2\pi}{166} = 26.42\ Hz

Now,

Speed of the wave is given by:

v = f\lambda

v = 26.419\times 0.436 = 11.518\ m/s
