Calculate the radius of curvatuire of the concave lens based on the measured focal length.

Physics

Answer:

 R₁ = (n -1) f

Explanation:

In geometric optics the focal length and the radius of curvature are related, for the case of a lens

          1 / f = (n₂-n₀) (1 / R₁ - 1 / R₂)

where f is the focal length, n₂ is the refractive index of the material, n₀ is the refractive index of the medium surrounding the material, R₁ and R₂ are the radius of curvature of each of the material's

In our case, the most common is that the lens is in the air, so n1 = 1, in many cases one of the surfaces is flat, so its radius of curvature R₂ = ∞.

     1 / f = (n-1) (1 / R₁)

we look for the radius of curvature R₁

    1 / R₁ = 1 / f (n-1)

     R₁ = (n -1) f

With this expression we can find the radius of curvature of a concave-plane lens

The diagram shows a heat engine. In which area of the diagram is unusable thermal energy detected?
Marat540 [252]
Nope, I disagree with the former answer. The answer is definitely Z. <u>W area</u> (boxed with red outline) is represented as the hot reservoir while <u>Z area</u> is the cold reservoir (boxed with blue outline). X area is the heat engine itself and Y area is the work produced from thermal energy from hot reservoir. Typically, all heat engines lose some heat to the environment (based from the second law of thermodynamics) that is symbolically illustrated by the lost energy in the cold reservoir. This lost thermal energy is basically the unusable thermal energy. The higher thermal energy lost, the less efficient your heat engine is.

A man wears convex lens glasses of focal length 30cm in order to correct his eyes defect. Instead of the optimum 25cm, his dista
omeli [17]

Answer:

14 cm

Explanation:

F = (frac{uv}{u – v})

F = +ve

v = -ve

30 = (frac {25 {times} (-v)}{25 – (-v)})

v = (frac {25 {times} (-v)}{25+v})

v = 14cm

(Note that either negative or positive values go to show the positioning and hence, they are not a strong necessity in your final answer.)

So happy that i could help you!

Now this question could turn out to be easy for you!!

Why do you think the outer planets have such extensive systems of rings and moons, while the inner planets do not?
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

Because of immense gravity

Explanation:

The formation of the Solar system was a very dynamic process. A lot of matter was thrown towards the outer solar system which further formed the Gas giants: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. The size of these outer planets is huge so is their gravity.

Because of their huge gravity a lot of matter which was scattered in the outer solar system got attracted towards them. This matter is what make the rings of the outer planets. Also, because of immense gravity they captured larger bodies thus making them their Moons.
