Answer:

a) 1.55 cm

b) 4.25 cm

Explanation:

Given:

Distance between an object and the image = 5.80 cm

Focal length of the lens, f = -2.60 cm

let the image distance be 'v' and the object distance be 'u'

thus,

u + v = 5.80 cm

or

u = 5.80 - v

from the lens formula, we have

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{v}

on substituting the values, we have

\frac{1}{-2.60}=\frac{1}{5.80-v}+\frac{1}{v}

on rearranging, we get

-3.84 × (v × (5.80 - v)) = v + 5.80 - v

or

-2.23v + 3.84v² = 5.80

or

3.84v² - 2.23v - 5.80 = 0

on solving the quadratic equation, we get

v = 1.55 cm

and u = 5.80 - 1.55 = 4.25 cm

hence,

a) 1.55 cm

b) 4.25 cm

If the charge on the negative plate of the capacitor is 121 nano-Coulomb, how many excess electrons are on that plate? Write you
Julli [10]

Answer:

n = 756.25 giga electrons

Explanation:

It is given that,

If the charge on the negative plate of the capacitor, Q=121\ nC=121\times 10^{-9}\ C

Let n is the number of excess electrons are on that plate. Using the quantization of charges, the total charge on the negative plate is given by :

Q=ne

e is the charge on electron

n=\dfrac{Q}{e}

n=\dfrac{121\times 10^{-9}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}

n=7.5625\times 10^{11}

or

n = 756.25 giga electrons

So, there are 756.25 giga electrons are on the plate. Hence, this is the required solution.

This is a science Question. Please help.
sattari [20]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

This is a physics question, know that force is equals to mass divided by acceleration (acc.), so if the same force is applied, say 10 Newton and the mass of A is 2 and the mass of B is 4, then the acceleration of A is 0.2 and that of B is 0.4 by equating, and this applies to all cases.

A stationary police car emits a sound of frequency 1240 HzHz that bounces off of a car on the highway and returns with a frequen
Tju [1.3M]

Answer

given,

frequency from Police car= 1240 Hz

frequency of sound after return  = 1275 Hz

Calculating the speed of the car = ?

Using Doppler's effect formula

Frequency received by the other car

  f_1 = \dfrac{f_0(u + v)}{u}..........(1)

u is the speed of sound = 340 m/s

v is the speed of the car

Frequency of the police car received

  f_2= \dfrac{f_1(u)}{u-v}

now, inserting the value of equation (1)

  f_2= f_0\dfrac{u+v}{u-v}

  1275=1240\times \dfrac{340+v}{340-v}

  1.02822(340 - v) = 340 + v

   2.02822 v = 340 x 0.028822

   2.02822 v = 9.799

   v = 4.83 m/s

hence, the speed of the car is equal to v = 4.83 m/s

A loop of wire is placed in a magnetic field such that it has a flux, LaTeX: \phi ϕ, through it. The loop is compressed so that
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

B'= 3.333 B

Explanation:

Lets take

Initial area = A

Magnetic field = B

The area after compression

A'=0.3 A

Magnetic field = B'

We know that flux ,Ф

Ф = B A

Given that flux is constant so

B A = B' A'

B A=B' x 0.3 A

B'= 3.333 B

It means that magnetic field will increase.
