1. Determine the image distance in each of the following.

miskamm [114]

It is given that for the convex lens,

Case 1.

u=−40cm

f=+15cm

Using lens formula

−

v=+24.3cm

The image in formed in this case at a distance of 24.3cm in left of lens.

Case 2.

A point source is placed in between the lens and the mirror at a distance of 40 cm from the lens i.e. the source is placed at the focus of mirror, then the rays after reflection becomes parallel for the lens such that

u=∞

f=15cm

Now, using mirror’s formula

∞

v=+15cm

The image is formed at a distance of 15cm in left of mirror

What happens to the iron in the coilgun if the electricity in the coil was turned on

Andrews [41]

The piece of iron has become a magnet. Some substances can be magnetized by an electric current. When electricity runs through a coil of wire, it produces a magnetic field. The field around the coil will disappear, however, as soon as the electric current is turned off.

Some element can be either solid or liquid. At the melting point, the liquid has 8 × 10-22 J more enthalpy per atom than the sol

OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

481.76 J/mol

133.33 K

Explanation:

$N_A$ = Avogadro's number = $6.022\times 10^{23}$

Change in enthalpy is given by

$\Delta H=8\times 10^{-22}\times 6.022\times 10^{23}\\\Rightarrow \Delta H=481.76\ J/mol$

Entropy is given by

$\Delta S=6\times 10^{-24}\times 6.022\times 10^{23}\\\Rightarrow \Delta S=3.6132\ J/mol K$

Latent heat of fusion is given by

$L_f=\Delta H\\\Rightarrow L_f=481.76\ J/mol$

The latent heat of fusion is 481.76 J/mol

Melting point is given by

$T_m=\dfrac{L_f}{\Delta S}\\\Rightarrow T_m=\dfrac{8\times 10^{-22}\times 6.022\times 10^{23}}{6\times 10^{-24}\times 6.022\times 10^{23}}\\\Rightarrow T_f=133.33\ K$

Melting occurs at 133.33 K
