When the block settles and stops bobbing up and down, the buoyant force and gravitational force on it must be EQUAL.  If they were not equal, then there would be a NET vertical force on the block, and it would be accelerating vertically, either up or down.  It's not, so there isn't.

How does competition affect population size? Use the terms carrying capacity and limiting factor with your example.
svetoff [14.1K]

Limiting factors are resources or other factors in the environment that can lower the population growth rate. Competition for resources like food and space cause the growth rate to stop increasing, so the population levels off. This flat upper line on a growth curve is the carrying capacity.

An object is placed 5.00 cm beyond the focal point of a convex lens whose focal length is 10.0 cm. If the object height is 3.0 c
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

The height of the image is, h' = 6.0 cm

The image is erect.

Explanation:

Given data,

The object distance, u = -5 cm

The focal length of convex lens, f = 10 cm

The object height, h = 3 cm

The lens formula,

                      \frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{v}-\frac{1}{u}

                      \frac{1}{10}=\frac{1}{v}-\frac{1}{-5}

                      \frac{1}{v}=\frac{1}{10}-\frac{1}{5}

                      v = -10 cm

The magnification factor of lens

                     m=\frac{-10}{-5}

                     m = 2

                     m=\frac{h'}{h}

                     h'=h\times m

                     h'=3\times 2

                     h' = 6 cm

The height of the image is, h' = 6 cm

The image is erect.
