We can solve both parts of the problem by using the lens equation:
\frac{1}{f} =  \frac{1}{d_o}+ \frac{1}{d_i}
where
f is the focal length
d_o is the distance of the object from the lens
d_i is the distance of the image from the lens

Let's also keep in mind that for a converging lens, the focal length is taken as positive, so f=+19.0 cm.

(a) In this case, d_o = 41 cm. So, the lens equation becomes
\frac{1}{d_i}= \frac{1}{f}- \frac{1}{d_o}= \frac{1}{19 cm}- \frac{1}{41 cm} =0.028 cm^{-1}
And so the distance of the image from the lens is
d_i =  \frac{1}{0.028 cm^{-1}} =+35.4 cm
where the positive sign means the image is real, i.e. is located behind the lens (opposite side of the real object)

(b) In this case, d_o = 14 cm. So, the lens equation becomes
\frac{1}{d_i}= \frac{1}{f}- \frac{1}{d_o}= \frac{1}{19 cm}- \frac{1}{14 cm} =-0.019 cm^{-1}
And so the distance of the image from the lens is
d_i = \frac{1}{-0.019 cm^{-1}} =-53.2 cm
where the negative sign means the image is virtual, i.e. is located in front of the lens (i.e. on the same side of the real object)

When a golf club hits a 0.0459 kg ball at rest, it exerts a 2380 N force for 0.00100 s. What is the speed of the ball afterwards
aksik [14]

Answer:

51.85m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of ball  = 0.0459kg

Force  = 2380N

Time taken  = 0.001s

Unknown:

Speed of the ball afterwards  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use Newton's second law of motion:

   F = m x \frac{v - u}{t}  

F is the force

m is the mass

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time taken

        2380  = 0.0459 x \frac{v- 0}{0.001}  

        0.0459v  = 2.38

                   v = 51.85m/s

The displacement of a 500 g mass, undergoing simple harmonic motion, is defined by the function :
Delicious77 [7]

The maximum kinetic energy, maximum potential energy and the maximum mechanical energy are equal to 7.56J.

<h3>What is simple harmonic motion?</h3>

Simple harmonic motion, in physics, repetitive movement back and forth through an equilibrium, or central, position, so that the maximum displacement on one side of this position is equal to the maximum displacement on the other side.

Simple Harmonic Motion

The given equation of the simple harmonic motion is

x=3.5 sin (\frac{\pi }{2t} + \frac{5\pi }{4} )

Data;

ω = π/2

k = 1.254N/m

Solving this

\frac{dx}{dt} = -3.5 X \frac{\pi }{2} cos (\frac{x\pi t}{2}+\frac{5\pi }{4}  )

Let's calculate the maximum velocity.

V_{m} =\frac{3.5\pi }{2}

This is only possible when cos θ = -1

The maximum kinetic energy is

K_m =\frac{1}{2} mv^2 = \frac{1}{2} X \frac{500}{1000} X \frac{7^2\pi ^2}^{4} ^2

w^2 = \frac{k}{m} \\k = w^2m\\k = \frac{\pi ^2}{4} X \frac{500}{1000} \\k =1.254 N/m

Using the value of spring constant, we can find the maximum potential energy.

P.E =\frac{1}{2} k x^2\\P.E =\frac{1}{2} X 1.234 X 3.5^2 \\P.E = 7.56 J

The maximum potential energy is 7.56J

The maximum mechanical energy is equal to the sum of maximum potential energy and the maximum kinetic energy.

ME = K.E + P.E

ME = 7.56J

From the calculations above, the maximum kinetic energy, maximum potential energy and the maximum mechanical energy are equal to 7.56J.
