Explanation:

Archimedes' principle states that the upward buoyant force which is exerted on body when immersed whether fully submerged or partially in the fluid is equal to weight of fluid which body displaces and this force acts in upward direction at center of mass of displaced fluid.

Thus,

Weight of the displaced fluid = Weight of the object - Weight of object in fluid.

How do your results from ray tracing compare to your results from using the thin-lens equation?

EastWind [94]

Answer:

20cm

Explanation:

A convex lens has a positive focal length and the object placed in front of it produce both virtual and real image (image distance can be negative or positive depending on the nature of the image).

According to the lens equation

$\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{u} + \frac{1}{v}$ where;

f is the focal length of the lens

u is the object distance

v is the image distance

If the magnification is - 0.6

mag = v/u = -0.5

v = -0.5u

since v = 10cm

10 = -0.5u

u = -10/0.5

u =-20 cm

Substitute u = -20cm ( due to negative magnification)and v = 10cm into the lens formula to get the focal length f

$\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{u} + \frac{1}{v}\\\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{-20} + \frac{1}{10}\\\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{-20} + \frac{1}{10}\\\frac{1}{f} = \frac{-1+2}{20} \\\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{20} \\cross \ multiply\\f = 20\\f = 20 cm$

Hence the focal length of the convex lens is 20cm

How much weight can a man lift in the jupiter if he can lift 100kg on the earth.calculate

Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

<h3>2479 Newton</h3>

Solution,

Mass=100 kg

Acceleration due to gravity(g)=24.79 m/s^2

Now,.

 $weight = m \times g \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = 100 \times 24.79 \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: = 2479 \: newton$ 

hope this helps ..

Good luck on your assignment..

Two astronauts are playing catch in a zero gravitational field. Astronaut 1 of mass m1 is initially moving to the right with spe

Ede4ka [16]

The final velocity ( $v_1_f$ ) of the first astronaut will be greater than the final velocity of the second astronaut ( $v_2_f$ ) to ensure that the total initial momentum of both astronauts is equal to the total final momentum of both astronauts after throwing the ball.

The given parameters;

Mass of the first astronaut, = m₁
Mass of the second astronaut, = m₂
Initial velocity of the first astronaut, = v₁
Initial velocity of the second astronaut, = v₂ > v₁
Mass of the ball, = m
Speed of the ball, = u
Final velocity of the first astronaut, = $v_f_1$
Final velocity of the second astronaut, = $v_f_2$

The final velocity of the first astronaut relative to the second astronaut after throwing the ball is determined by applying the principle of conservation of linear momentum.

$m_1v_1 + m_2v_2 = m_2v_2_f + m_1v_1_f$

if v₂ > v₁, then $v_1_f > v_2_f$ , to conserve the linear momentum.

Thus, the final velocity ( $v_1_f$ ) of the first astronaut will be greater than the final velocity of the second astronaut ( $v_2_f$ ) to ensure that the total initial momentum of both astronauts is equal to the total final momentum of both astronauts after throwing the ball.

A car travels at a speed of 40 m/s for 29.0 s; what is the distance traveled by the car?

lianna [129]

Answer: 1160 m

Explanation:

Speed = distance / time. Plug in 40 m/s for speed and 29 s for time in order to get the distance, 1160 m.
