7 0

Explanation:

a) The Earth makes 1 rotation in 24 hours.  In seconds:

24 hr × (3600 s / hr) = 86400 s

b) 1 rotation is 2π radians.  So the angular velocity is:

2π rad / 86400 s = 7.27×10⁻⁵ rad/s

c) The earth's linear velocity is the angular velocity times the radius:

40075 km × 7.27×10⁻⁵ rad/s = 2.91 km/s

A screen is placed a distance dd to the right of an object. A converging lens with focal length ff is placed between the object
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

2f

Explanation:

The formula for the object - image relationship of thin lens is given as;

1/s + 1/s' = 1/f

Where;

s is object distance from lens

s' is the image distance from the lens

f is the focal length of the lens

Total distance of the object and image from the lens is given as;

d = s + s'

We earlier said that; 1/s + 1/s' = 1/f

Making s' the subject, we have;

s' = sf/(s - f)

Since d = s + s'

Thus;

d = s + (sf/(s - f))

Expanding this, we have;

d = s²/(s - f)

The derivative of this with respect to d gives;

d(d(s))/ds = (2s/(s - f)) - s²/(s - f)²

Equating to zero, we have;

(2s/(s - f)) - s²/(s - f)² = 0

(2s/(s - f)) = s²/(s - f)²

Thus;

2s = s²/(s - f)

s² = 2s(s - f)

s² = 2s² - 2sf

2s² - s² = 2sf

s² = 2sf

s = 2f

Find the absolute value of the change of the gravitational potential energy (GPE) of the puck-Earth system from the moment the p
jekas [21]

Answer:

0.16joules

Explanation:

Using the relation for The gravitational potential energy

E= Mgh

Where,

E= Potential energy

h = Vertical Height

M = mass

g = Gravitational Field Strength

To find the vertical component of angle of launch Where the angle is 22°

h= sin theta

So E = mghsintheta

= 0.18 x 0.98 x 0.253 sin22

=0.16joules
