Answer:

The image distance is 20.0 cm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Power = 1.55 dp

Distance between book to eye = 26.0+3.00=29.0 cm

We need to calculate the focal length

Using formula of focal length

$f = \dfrac{1}{P}$

Put the value into the formula

$f=\dfrac{1}{1.55}$

$f=0.645\ m$

$f=64.5\ cm$

We need to calculate the image distance

Using lens formula

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

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

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{64.5}-\dfrac{1}{-29}$

$\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{187}{3741}$

$v=20.0\ cm$

Hence, The image distance is 20.0 cm.

A push on a textbook with 10 N moves it to a distance of 2 cm. How much force is need to move it to 4 cm?

uysha [10]

Answer:

20N

Explanation:

Ratio of N to cm-

10:2

so to make 2=4 times 2 so The ratio is now-

20:4

so to move 4 cm you need to push 20N.

. A grindstone increases in angular speed from 4.00 rad/s to 12.00 rad/s in 4.00 s. Through what angle does it turn during that

ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

$\theta=32rad$

Explanation:

In an uniformly accelerated circular motion, the angle traveled by the object is given by:

$\theta=\frac{\omega_f+\omega_0}{2}t$

Here $\omega_f$ is the final angular speed, $\omega_0$ is the initial angular speed and t is the time of the motion. Replacing the given values:

$\theta=\frac{12\frac{rad}{s}+4\frac{rad}{s}}{2}(4s)\\\theta=32rad$

A tortoise can run with a speed of 0.14 m/s, and a hare can run 20 times as fast. In a race, they both start at the same time, b

Reptile [31]

speed of tortoise is given as v1 = 0.14 m/s

speed of hare is given as v2 = 20*0.14 = 2.8 m/s

now let say the total length of the path is "d"

so the total time taken by the tortoise to cover this

$t = \frac{d}{0.14}$

now given that hare took rest for 1 min

so total time of run for hare is (t - 60)s

so the distance that hare covered is given by

$d - 0.30 = 2.8 * (t - 60)$

now by above two equations

$d - 0.30 = 2.8 * \frac{d}{0.14} - 168$

$168 - 0.30 = (20 - 1)d$

$d = 8.82 m$

and the time t is given by

$t = \frac{8.82}{0.14}$

$t = 63 s$

so part a)

t = 63 s

part b)

d = 8.82 m

To apply Problem-Solving Strategy 12.2 Sound intensity. You are trying to overhear a most interesting conversation, but from you

Ivenika [448]

Answer:

r₂ = 0.316 m

Explanation:

The sound level is expressed in decibels, therefore let's find the intensity for the new location

β = 10 log $\frac{I}{I_o}$

let's write this expression for our case

β₁ = 10 log \frac{I_1}{I_o}

β₂ = 10 log \frac{I_2}{I_o}

β₂ -β₁ = 10 ( $log \frac{I_2}{I_o} - log \frac{I_1}{I_o}$ )

β₂ - β₁ = 10 $log \frac{I_2}{I_1}$

log \frac{I_2}{I_1} = $\frac{60 - 20}{10}$ = 3

$\frac{I_2}{I_1}$ = 10³

I₂ = 10³ I₁

having the relationship between the intensities, we can use the definition of intensity which is the power per unit area

I = P / A

P = I A

the area is of a sphere

A = 4π r²

the power of the sound does not change, so we can write it for the two points

P = I₁ A₁ = I₂ A₂

I₁ r₁² = I₂ r₂²

we substitute the ratio of intensities

I₁ r₁² = (10³ I₁ ) r₂²

r₁² = 10³ r₂²

r₂ = r₁ / √10³

we calculate

r₂ = $\frac{10.0}{\sqrt{10^3} }$

r₂ = 0.316 m
