An object of height 8.50 cm is placed 20.0 cm to the left of a converging lens with a focal length of 12.0 cm. Determine the ima
ddd [48]

The image distance is 33.3 cm while the image height is 14.2 cm.

<h3>What is a converging lens?</h3>

A converging lens will always have a positive focal length hence, we have to find the object distance as follows;

1/f = 1/v + 1/u

1/12 = 1/v + 1/20

1/v = 1/12 - 1/20

1/v = 0.08 - 0.05

v =33.3 cm

Now;

Magnification =  33.3 cm/20.0 cm =1.67

M = Image height/Object height

1.67 =  Image height/8.50 cm

Image height = 1.67  * 8.50 cm

Image height = 14.2 cm

Liula [17]

Answer:

correct is d) a ’= g / 2

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use the kinematics equations

On earth

      v = v₀ - a t

     a = (v₀- v) / T

On planet X

    v = v₀ - a' t’

    a ’= (v₀-v) / 2T

Let's substitute the land values ​​in plot X

     a’= a / 2

Now let's use Newton's second law

       W = ma

      m g = m a

      a = g

We substitute

      a ’= g / 2

So we see that on planet X the acceleration is half the acceleration of Earth's gravity

myrzilka [38]

Answer:

Curves around objects

Explanation:

Diffraction is a property of light described by bending of light around an object. This ability of light to bend around edges has facilitated optical effects of light where there is interference of light waves. Other properties of light are: reflection, refraction, polarization, scattering of light, and interference of light.
