A concave lens of power -2D is placed in contact with a convex lens of power +1.5D what will be the resultant power

Physics

5 0

Answer: -0.5 D

Explanation:

The resultant power can be defined as the sum of powers of all the lenses placed in contact together.

P =P₁ + P₂ + P₃ +....

It is given that power of the concave lens is, P₁ = -2 D

Power of the convex lens is, P₂ = +1.5 D

Thus, the resultant power when these two lenses are placed in contact with each other are: P = P₁ + P₂ = -2 D + 1.5 D = -0.5 D.

On the Newtonian theory of gravity, gravitation affects anything with mass. Assuming that none of the answer choices is the only thing that exists in the universe, all of the answer choices are subject to the law of universal gravitation (hence “universal”).

Satellites, water, frogs, and stars all have mass as they are all composed of matter. Thus, all four answer choices should be circled.

The net force experienced by an object is increased. What affect does this have on the acceleration of the object?
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

The acceleration of an object depends directly upon the net force acting upon the object, and inversely upon the mass of the object. As the force acting upon an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is increased. As the mass of an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is decreased.

When 597 J of heat are added to a gas, it expands. Its internal energy increases by 318 J. How much work does the gas do? (Unit=
damaskus [11]

The magnitude of work done by the gas is 279 J and the sign is negative so W = -279 J as work is done by the system.

<u>Explanation:</u>

According to first law of thermodynamics, the change in internal energy of the system is equal to the sum of the heat energy added or released from the system with the work done on or by the system. If the heat energy is added to the system to perform a certain work, then the heat energy is taken as positive, while it will be negative when the heat energy is released from the system.

Similarly, in this case, the heat energy of 597 J is added to the system. So the heat energy will be positive, while the gas expansion occurs means work is done by the system.

          ΔU = Q+W

Since ΔU is the change in internal energy which is given as 318 J and the heat energy added to the system is Q = 597 J.

Then the work done by the gas = ΔU - Q = 318 J - 597 J = - 279 J.

As the work is done by the system, so it will be denoted in negative sign and the magnitude of work done by the gas is 279 J.
