Answer:

Explanation:

Using the magnification formula.

Magnification = Image distance(v)/object distance(u) = Image Height(H1)/Object Height(H2)

M = v/u = H1/H2

v/u = H1/H2...1

3) Given the radius of curvature of the concave lens R = 20cm

Focal length F = R/2

f = 20/2

f = 10cm

Object distance u = 5cm

Object height H2= 5cm

To get the image distance v, we will use the mirror formula

1/f = 1/u+1/v

1/v = 1/10-1/5

1/v = (1-2)/10

1/v =-1/10

v = -10cm

Using the magnification formula

(10)/5 = H1/5

10 = H1

H1 = 10cm

Image height of the peg is 10cm

4) If u = 15cm

1/v = 1/f-1/u

1/v = 1/10-1/15

1/v = 3-2/30

1/v = 1/30

v = 30cm

30/15 = H1/5

15H1 = 150

H1/= 10cm

5) if u = 20cm

1/v = 1/f-1/u

1/v = 1/10-1/20

1/v = 2-1/20

1/v = 1/20

v = 20cm

20/20 = H1/5

20H1 = 100

H1 = 5cm

6) If u = 30cm

1/v = 1/f-1/u

1/v = 1/10-1/30

1/v = 3-1/30

1/v = 2/30

v = 30/2 cm

v =>15cm

15/30 = Hi/5

30H1 = 75

H1 = 75/30

H1 = 2.5cm

leonid [27]

Answer: The angle of resolution =47.05°

Explanation:

The angle of resolution represents the resolve power and precision of optical instruments such as the eye, camera and e en a microscope. It is given by the equation:

Sin A = 1.220(W÷D)

Sin A= 1.220(300÷500)

Sin A = 1.220(0.6)

Sin A = 0.732

A= Sin^-1 0.732

A= 47.05°

8. The legs of a young man are each 0.650 meters long. What is his maximum walking speed?
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

2.52 m/s

Explanation:

When the man takes a step, his foot is stationary while his body revolves around it.  At the point when his body is directly above his foot, there will be no normal force at his maximum speed.

Sum of the forces in the radial direction:

∑F = ma

mg = m v² / r

g = v² / r

v = √(gr)

Given that r = 0.650 m:

v = √(9.8 m/s² × 0.650 m)

v = 2.52 m/s
