Answer:

Any incident ray traveling parallel to the principal axis of a converging lens will refract through the lens and travel through the focal point on the opposite side of the lens. ... These rays of light will refract when they enter the lens and refract when they leave the lens.

Hope this helps...

a ball is thrown striaght up in the air and then falls back to earth. if the downward fall takes 2.2s, how fast is the ball trav

lapo4ka [179]

The velocity of the ball when it strikes the ground, given the data is 21.56 m/s

<h3>Data obtained from the question</h3>

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Time to reach ground from maximum height (t) = 2.2 s
Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
Final velocity (v) =?

<h3>How to determine the velocity when the ball strikes the ground</h3>

The velocity of the ball when it strikes the ground can be obtained as illustrated below:

v = u + gt

v = 0 + (9.8 × 2.2)

v = 0 + 21.56

v = 21.56 m/s

Thus, the velocity of the ball when it strikes the ground is 21.56 m/s

A single-phase electrical load draws 600KVA at 0.6 power factor lagging. a) Find the real and reactive power absorbed by the loa

Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

(a). The reactive power is 799.99 KVAR.

(c). The reactive power of a capacitor to be connected across the load to raise the power factor to 0.95 is 790.05 KVAR.

Explanation:

Given that,

Power factor = 0.6

Power = 600 kVA

(a). We need to calculate the reactive power

Using formula of reactive power

$Q=P\tan\phi$ ...(I)

We need to calculate the $\phi$

Using formula of $\phi$

$\phi=\cos^{-1}(Power\ factor)$

Put the value into the formula

$\phi=\cos^{-1}(0.6)$

$\phi=53.13^{\circ}$

Put the value of Φ in equation (I)

$Q=600\tan(53.13)$

$Q=799.99\ kVAR$

(b). We draw the power triangle

(c). We need to calculate the reactive power of a capacitor to be connected across the load to raise the power factor to 0.95

Using formula of reactive power

$Q'=600\tan(0.95)$

$Q'=9.94\ KVAR$

We need to calculate the difference between Q and Q'

$Q''=Q-Q'$

Put the value into the formula

$Q''=799.99-9.94$

$Q''=790.05\ KVAR$

Hence, (a). The reactive power is 799.99 KVAR.

(c). The reactive power of a capacitor to be connected across the load to raise the power factor to 0.95 is 790.05 KVAR.

A house brick has a volume of 1900 cm³ and a weight in air of 80N.What is its apparent weight in water?The density of water is 1

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

61 N

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the mass of the brick when placed in water. This can be obtained as follow:

Volume of brick = 1900 cm³

Density of water = 1 g/cm³

Mass of brick in water =…?

Density = mass / volume

1 = mass of brick in water / 1900

Cross multiply

Mass of brick in water = 1 × 1900

Mass of brick in water = 1900 g

Next, we shall convert 1900 g to Kg.

1000 g = 1 Kg

Therefore,

1900 g = 1900 g × 1 Kg / 1000 g

1900 g = 1.9 Kg

Next, we shall determine the weight in water. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) = 1.9 Kg

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²

Weight (W) =?

W = m × g

W = 1.9 × 10

W = 19 N

Thus, the weight of the brick in water is 19 N.

Finally, we shall determine the apparent weight of the brick in water. This can be obtained as follow:

Weight in air = 80 N

Weight in water = 19 N

Apparent weight =?

Apparent weight = weight in air – weight in water

Apparent weight = 80 – 19

Apparent weight = 61 N

velikii [3]

The velocity is a vectorial quantity, whereas speed is a scalar quantity, meaning it depends on the direction!
As such, the velocity is changing because the direction is changing.

A 75 N box of oranges is being pushed across a horizontal floor. As it moves, it is slowing at a constant rate of 0.90 m/s each

shusha [124]

Answer:

μk = 0.26885

Explanation:

Conceptual analysis

We apply Newton's second law:

∑Fx = m*a (Formula 1)

∑F : algebraic sum of the forces in Newton (N)

m : mass in kilograms (kg)

a : acceleration in meters over second square (m/s²)

Data:

a= -0.9 m/s²,

g = 9.81 m/s² : acceleration due to gravity

W= 75 N : Block weight

W= m*g

m = W/g = 75/9.8= 7.65 kg : Block mass

Friction force : Ff

Ff= μk*N

μk: coefficient of kinetic friction

N : Normal force (N)

Problem development

We apply the formula (1)

∑Fy = m*ay , ay=0

N-W-25 = 0

N = 75 +25

N= 100N

∑Fx = m*ax

20-Ff= m*ax

20-μk*100 = 7.65*(-0.90 )

20+7.65*(0.90) = μk*100

μk = ( 20+7.65*(0.90)) / (100)

μk = 0.26885
