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

The net force experienced by an object is increased. What affect does this have on the acceleration of the object?
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

The acceleration of an object depends directly upon the net force acting upon the object, and inversely upon the mass of the object. As the force acting upon an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is increased. As the mass of an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is decreased.
