Answer:

A measurement standard is defined as 'the exact quantity people agree to use for comparison'.

Explanation:

For the same type of quantity, there is a unit of measurement which is defined and adopted either conventionally or by law which is used as standard for measurement of that quantity.

This measurement standard is defined as 'the exact quantity people agree to use for comparison'.

For example, for length the standard unit of measurement is 'meter'.

A camera is equipped with a lens with a focal length of 34 cm. When an object 2.4 m (240 cm) away is being photographed, what is

puteri [66]

Answer:

The magnification is -6.05.

Explanation:

Given that,

Focal length = 34 cm

Distance of the image =2.4 m = 240 cm

We need to calculate the distance of the object

$\dfrac{1}{u}+\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{f}$

Where, u = distance of the object

v = distance of the image

f = focal length

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{1}{u}=\dfrac{1}{34}-\dfrac{1}{240}$

$\dfrac{1}{u}=\dfrac{103}{4080}$

$u =\dfrac{4080}{103}$

The magnification is

$m = \dfrac{-v}{u}$

$m=\dfrac{-240\times103}{4080}$

$m = -6.05$

Hence, The magnification is -6.05.

g The potential energy of a pair of hydrogen atoms separated by a large distance x is given by U(x)=−C6/x6, where C6 is a positi

Arisa [49]

Answer:

$F_x = -\frac{6 C_6}{2^7}$

Attractive

Explanation:

Data provided in the question

The potential energy of a pair of hydrogen atoms given by $\frac{C_6}{X_6}$

Based on the given information, the force that one atom exerts on the other is

Potential energy μ = $\frac{C_6}{X_6}$

Force exerted by one atom upon another

$F_x = \frac{\partial U}{\partial X} = \frac{\partial}{\partial X} (-\frac{C_6}{X^6})$

$F_x = \frac{\partial}{\partial X} (\frac{C_6}{X^6})$

$F_x = -\frac{6 C_6}{2^7}$

As we can see that the $C_6$ comes in positive and constant which represents that the force is negative that means the force is attractive in nature

Determine the frequency of light whose wavelength is 4.257 x10-7 cm

Bas_tet [7]

Frequency x Wavelength = Speed of light Now, speed of light = 3 x 10^5 km/s = 3 x 10^8 m/s = 3 x 10^10 cm/s Frequency = speed/Wavelength = (3 x 10^10)/(4.257 x 10^-7) =7 x 10^16 Hz

A 120 kg box is on the verge of slipping down an inclined plane with an angle of inclination of 47º. What is the coefficient of

Alex_Xolod [135]

Given :

A 120 kg box is on the verge of slipping down an inclined plane with an angle of inclination of 47º.

To Find :

The coefficient of static friction between the box and the plane.

Solution :

Vertical component of force :

$mg\ sin\ \theta = 120\times 10 \times sin\ 47^\circ{}=877.62 \ N$

Horizontal component of force(Normal reaction) :

$mg\ cos\ \theta = 120\times 10 \times cos\ 47^\circ{}=818.40 \ N$

Since, box is on the verge of slipping :

$mg\ sin\ \theta= \mu(mg \ cos\ \theta)\\\\\mu = tan \ \theta\\\\\mu = tan\ 47^o\\\\\mu = 1.07$

Therefore, the coefficient of static friction between the box and the plane is 1.07.

Hence, this is the required solution.
