Lidia plans an experimental investigation to see how the thickness of a lens affects the point where a beam of light is focused.

She plans to shine light through a lens and measure the distance to a screen that is placed where the beam focuses.What are the controls in Lidia’s investigation?

Answer:

The type of light and the material of lenz.

Explanation:

1) As the investigation is based on how the thickness of a lens effect the other variable. Thickness of the lenz is independent variable. So Lidia has to experiment with the different thicknesses in order to find the effect on dependent variable.

2) As the investigation is based to find the point where the beam of light is focused. It's a dependent variable and Lidia has no control over it. So the only thing she can do is to measure and observe how it respond to the changes in independent variable.

3) For conclusion, she has to make sure that the other variables are not effecting the output or results that is the beam point where the light is focused. So she must have to kept constant the type of light and material of lenz otherwise she won't be able to discriminate the effect of thickness of lenz from other causes.

You are given a vector in the xy plane that has a magnitude of 84.0 units and a y-component of -67.0 units.
melomori [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

a)Magnitude = \sqrt{(x1-y2)^{2}  + (x1-x2)^{2} }

84=\sqrt{(0- (-67))^{2}  + (x-0)^{2} }

x= +50.67 or -50.67 units

b) We are given that the resultant is entirely in the -ve x direction which means that the y-component of the resultant is 0; It means that the y-component of the next vector = -ve of the y component of the initial vector i.e 67.

To make the magnitude 80 units in the negative x direction where the y component is 0, the x component must be -130.67(-50.67 - 80) as the x component is + 50.67units.

Magnitude = \sqrt{(0- (67))^{2}  + (-130.67)^{2} } = 146.85 units

c) The direction vector = 67/146.85 i  - 130.67/146.85 j where i corresponds to the vector in y direction and j corresponds to the vector in x direction. Or this vector is at an angle of 180 - Tan^{-1}(67/130.67)degrees i.e 152.85 degrees from the +ve x-axis.

A horizontal spring is lying on a frictionless surface. One end of the spring is attached to a wall, and the other end is connec
juin [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that:

angular frequency = 11.3 rad/s

Spring constant (k) = = \omega^2  \times m

k = (11.3)² m

k = 127.7 m

where;

x_1 = 0.065 m

x_2  = 0.048 m

According to the conservation of energies;

E_1=E_2

∴

\Big(\dfrac{1}{2} \Big) kx_1^2 =\Big(\dfrac{1}{2} \Big) mv_2^2 + \Big(\dfrac{1}{2} \Big) kx_2^2

kx_1^2 = mv_2^2 + kx_2^2

(127.7 \ m) \times 0.065^2 = v_2^2 + (127.7 \ m) \times 0.048^2

0.5395325 = v_2^2 +0.2942208 \\ \\ 0.5395325  - 0.2942208 = v_2^2 \\ \\  v_2^2 = 0.2453117 \\ \\  v_2 = \sqrt{0.2453117} \\ \\ \mathbf{ v_2 \simeq0.50 \ m/s}

Why is Pluto considered less of an oddball planet now?
solmaris [256]

Answer:

The International Astronomical Union (IAU) downgraded the status of Pluto to that of a dwarf planet because it did not meet the three criteria the IAU uses to define a full-sized planet. Essentially Pluto meets all the criteria except one—it “has not cleared its neighboring region of other objects
