A converging lens has a focal length of 20 cm. An object 1 cm tall is placed 10 cm from the center of the lens. What is the heig
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer: 2 cm

Explanation:

Given , for a converging lens

Focal length : f=20\ cm

Height of object : h=1\ cm

Object distabce from lens : u=-10\ cm

Using lens formula: \dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{v}-\dfrac{1}{u}, we get

\dfrac{1}{20}=\dfrac{1}{v}+\dfrac{1}{10}, where v = image distance from the lens.

On solving aboive equation , we get

\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{20}-\dfrac{1}{10}=\dfrac{1-2}{20}=\dfrac{-1}{20}\Rightarrow\ v=-20\ cm

Formula of Magnification : m=\dfrac{v}{u}=\dfrac{h'}{h} , where h' is the height of image.

Put value of u, v and h in it , we get

\dfrac{-20}{-10}=\dfrac{h'}{1}\\\\\Rightarrow\ h'=2\ cm

Hence, the height of the image is 2 cm.

Where would a car traveling on a roller coaster have the most kinetic energy ? and why?
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

As the car travels up the coaster it is gaining potential energy.

Explanation:

Because It has the greatest in amount of potential energy at the top of the coaster. when the car travels down the roller coaster it obtains speed and kinetic energy.

Wewaii [24]

<u>Given </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

  • An elevator is moving vertically up with an acceleration a.

<u>To </u><u>Find</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

  • The force exerted on the floor by a passenger of mass m .

<u>Solution</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

As the man is in a accelerated frame that is <u>non </u><u>inertial</u><u> frame</u><u> </u>, we would have to think of a pseudo force .

  • The direction of this force is opposite to the direction of acceleration the frame and its magnitude is equal to the product of mass of the concerned body with the acceleration of the frame .

For the FBD refer to the attachment . From that ,

\implies Weight_{apparent}= mg + ma

<u>Hence</u><u> </u><u>option</u><u> </u><u>d </u><u>is </u><u>correct</u><u> </u><u>choice </u><u>.</u>

An engineer is designing a small toy car that will be launched from rest. The engineer wants to maximize the kinetic energy of t
aalyn [17]

The modifications to the car design that would have the greatest effect on increasing the kinetic energy of the car is to increase the mass of the car slightly (option B).

<h3>What is kinetic energy?</h3>

Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by an object because of its motion. The kinetic energy equal (nonrelativistically) to one half the mass of the body times the square of its speed.

According to this question, an engineer is designing a small toy car that will be launched from rest. The engineer wants to maximize the kinetic energy of the car when it is launched by a compressed spring.

However, he can only make one adjustment to the initial conditions of the car. Considering the fact that the mass of an object is directly proportional to the kinetic energy.

This suggests that the modifications to the car design that would have the greatest effect on increasing the kinetic energy of the car is to increase the mass of the car slightly.

Match the words in the left-hand column to the appropriate blank in the sentences in the right-hand column.
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

1. Molecular cloud

2. Close binary

3. Brown dwarf

4. Protostellar wind

5. Thermal pressure

6. Protostellar disk

7. Jet

8. Degeneracy pressure

Explanation:

1. The Sun formed, probably along with other stars, within a large molecular cloud.

2. A Close binary consists of two stars that orbit each other every few days.

3. A Brown dwarf is a "star" so small in mass that its core never gets hot enough to sustain nuclear fusion reactions.

4. Most of the gas remaining from the process of star formation is swept into interstellar space by a protostellar wind.

5. As a protostar's internal temperature increases, its growing thermal pressure helps slow its contraction due to gravity.

6. Planets may form within the protostellar disk that surrounds a forming star.

7. Mass can be lost through a jet of material ejected along a protostar's axis of rotation.

8. A "star" with mass below 0.08 solar mass has its gravitational contraction halted by degeneracy pressure.
