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)

4. A light string is attatched to a heavy rope, and the whole thing is pulled tight. A wave is sent along the light string. When
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

The correct answer to the question is (A)

When it hits the heavy rope, compared to the wave on the string, the wave that propagates along the rope has the same (A) frequency

Explanation:

The speed of a wave in a string is dependent on the square root of the tension ad inversely proportional  to the square root of the linear density of the string. Generally, the speed of a wave through a spring is dependent on the elastic and inertia properties of the string

v = \sqrt{ \frac{T}{\mu } } =  \sqrt{ \frac{T}{m/L } }

Therefore if the linear density of the heavy rope is four times that of light rope the velocity is halved and since

v = f×λ therefore  v/2 = f×λ/2

Therefore the wavelength is halved, however the frequency remains the same as continuity requires the frequency of the incident pulse vibration to be transmitted to the denser medium for the wave to continue as the wave is due to vibrating particles from a source for example

Driving along in your car, you take your foot off the gas, and your speedometer shows a reduction in speed. Describe an inertial
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

  v ’= v + v₀

a system can be another vehicle moving in the opposite direction.

Explanation:

In an inertial reference frame the speed of the vehicle is given by the Galileo transformational

          v ’= v - v₀

where v 'is the speed with respect to the mobile system, which moves with constant speed, v is the speed with respect to the fixed system and vo is the speed of the mobile system.

The vehicle's speedometer measures the harvest of a fixed system on earth, in this system v decreases, for a system where v 'increases it has to be a system in which the mobile system moves in the negative direction of the x axis, whereby the transformation ratio is

        v ’= v + v₀

Such a system can be another vehicle moving in the opposite direction.

Real springs have mass. How will the true period andfrequency
Ad libitum [116K]

Explanation:

An perfect mass less spring, attached at one end and with a free mass attached at the other end, will have a distinct frequency of oscillation depending on its constant spring and mass. On the other hand, a spring with mass along its length will not have a characteristic frequency of oscillation.

Alternatively, based on its spring constant and mass per length, it will now have a wave Speed. It would be possible to use all wavelengths and frequencies, as long as the component fλ= S, where S is the spring wave size. If that sounds like longitudinal waves, like solid sound waves.

A vehicle moving at 5m/s, i . what should be the constant declaration in order to stop it within 15m? ii. How long it takes to s
Flura [38]

Answer:

Refer to the attachment for solution (1).

<h3><u>Calculating time taken by it to stop (t) :</u></h3>

By using the second equation of motion,

→ v = u + at

  • v denotes final velocity
  • u denotes initial velocity
  • t denotes time
  • a denotes acceleration

→ 0 = 5 + (-5/6)t

→ 0 = 5 - (5/6)t

→ 0 + (5/6)t = 5

→ (5/6)t = 5

→ t = 5 ÷ (5/6)

→ t = 5 × (6/5)

→ t = 6 seconds

→ Time taken to stop = 6 seconds
