Answer:

<h2>FOCAL</h2>

Explanation:

<em>The center of a lens is known as its optical center. </em><em>All light rays incident on a particular lens converges at a points a point known as the principal focus or the focal point after reflecting</em><em>. Note that all light incident on a reflecting surface must all converge at this focal point after reflection. </em>

The distance measured from the center of this lens to its principal focus (otherwise known as focal point) is known as the <em>focal length of the lens. </em>

<em>Based on the explanation above, it cam be concluded that the distance from the center of a lens to the location where parallel rays converge or appear to converge is called the</em><em> FOCAL</em><em> length.</em>

A calorimeter directly measures ______ in order to calculate ______. (1 point)
Aneli [31]

The complete sentence is:

A calorimeter directly measures changes in temperature in order to calculate specific heat.

In fact, the amount of energy acquired/released by a substance is directly proportional to its change in temperature due to the equation

Q=mC_s \Delta T

where Q is the amount of energy, m is the mass of the substance, Cs is the specific heat of the substance and \Delta T is the change in temperature. Therefore, by knowing Q, m and by measuring the change in temperature, it is possible to calculate Cs, the specific heat capacity of the substance.

A flea walking along a ruler moves from the 45 cm mark to the 27 cm mark. It does this in 3 seconds. What is the speed? What is
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

Speed= 6cm/s and velocity= 6cm/s in the negative direction

Explanation:

the change in position is from 45cm to 27 cm (moving towards the negative x direction)

\Delta x = 45 cm - 27 cm = 18 cm

And the change in time:

\Delta t= 3 s

Now we must define the difference between speed and velocity:

Speed is a scalar quantity, which means that it is a number. Velocity ​​is also a number but you must also indicate the direction of the movement.

Thus, the speed is:

speed= \Delta x/ \Delta t = 18cm/3s=6cm/s

An the velocity is:

6cm/s in the negative direction

Which describes acceleration involving only a change in direction?
Viefleur [7K]
If we consider any system moving with u<span>niform circular motion we can notice that the MAGNITUDE of the accelaration remains constant. However,  there is a change in the direction of the acceleration at every instant of time .

 As the object moves through the circle the acceleration changes its direction always pointing to the center of the circle.</span>
