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>

Two trains are headed towards each other on the same track unbeknownst to the engineers. One departs San Francisco. Its average
aalyn [17]

Answer:

7,166 hrs =430  minutes

Explanation:

Since both train are on the same track, going one towards the other, the relative speed is the addition of both, then the time they need to meet, and consistently crash, is the time that (65mph + 55 mph)=120mph need to travel the total distance of 860 miles, of course in this case one part is traveled by the first train and the rest by the other. Then to find the time we use a three rule

1 h --->120mi

X ---->860mi, then X=(860 mi* 1h)/120 mi = 43/6 hrs= 7,16666 hrs, turning this into minutes need that we notice 1h=60min, then 43/6 hrs *60 min/hrs = 430 minutes.

g The potential energy of a pair of hydrogen atoms separated by a large distance x is given by U(x)=−C6/x6, where C6 is a positi
Arisa [49]

Answer:

F_x = -\frac{6 C_6}{2^7}

Attractive

Explanation:

Data provided in the question

The potential energy of a pair of hydrogen atoms given by \frac{C_6}{X_6}

Based on the given information, the force that one atom exerts on the other is

Potential energy μ = \frac{C_6}{X_6}

Force exerted by one atom upon another

F_x = \frac{\partial U}{\partial X} = \frac{\partial}{\partial X}  (-\frac{C_6}{X^6})

or

F_x = \frac{\partial}{\partial X}  (\frac{C_6}{X^6})

or

F_x = -\frac{6 C_6}{2^7}

As we can see that the C_6 comes in positive and constant which represents that the force is negative that means the force is attractive in nature

When the space shuttle coasts in a circular orbit at constant speed about the earth, is it accelerating? if so, in what directio
pochemuha
Yes. Acceleration means any change in speed or direction of motion. When an object coasts in a circular orbit at constant speed around the Earth, its direction is constantly changing. The acceleration is "CENTRIPETAL", which points toward the center of the circle.
