Answer: The correct answer is Image B.

Explanation: For an object to accelerate, there should be unbalanced forces present. An object will move in the direction of net force.

Balanced forces are defined as the forces acting on the same object which are equal in magnitude but act in opposite direction. The net forces are 0.

Unbalanced forces are defined as the forces acting on the same object which are unequal in magnitude. The net force is non-zero.

For the given images:

Image A: This box will accelerate easily because the net force is non-zero and is moving in right direction.

Image B: This box will not accelerate because the net force is zero as all the forces are balancing one another. Hence, the object will stay at rest.

Image C: This box will accelerate easily because the net force is non-zero and is acting in between the normal and applied force.

Image D: This box will accelerate easily because the net force is non-zero and is moving in right direction.

Hence, the correct option is Image B.

Which statement is the best interpretation of the ray diagram shown below?

madreJ [45]

A) A concave mirror forming a larger, virtual image

Explanation:

The figure is missing; see attachment.

There are two types of mirror:

Concave (converging) mirrors: a concave mirror is a mirror that reflects the light inward
Convex (diverging) mirrors: a convex mirror is a mirror that reflects the light outward

The image formed by a mirror can also be of two types:

Real image: it is formed on the same side of the object, with respect to the mirror
Virtual image: it is formed on the opposite side of the object, with respect to the mirror

In the figure of this problem (see attachment), we see that:

- The mirror reflects the light from the object inward --> so it is a concave mirror

- The image is formed on the other side of the mirror --> it is a virtual image

So the correct option is

A) A concave mirror forming a larger, virtual image

which of the following statements describes the formation of acid rain?...A. acid rain forms from human activities and lowers th

olga_2 [115]

The correct answer is A. Acid rain forms from human activities and lowers the pH of rainwater below 7

Explanation:

The term "acid rain" is used to refer to rainwater with a low pH or a high acidity, this includes rainwater with a pH below 7 (solutions with a pH under 7 are acidic). In terms of formation, acid rain is mainly the result of human activities such as factories or cars that release pollutants into the atmosphere including nitric and sulfuric acids and these alter the natural pH of rain and makes it more acidic. Additionally, acid rain has negative consequences such as the death of fishes and other organisms in lakes, rivers, etc. because the acidity is toxic to many organisms. Thus, acid rain is the result of human activities and it lowers the pH of rain (Option A).

A 3.20 kg block starts at rest and slides a distance d down a frictionless β = 30.0 ◦ incline, where it runs into a spring with

Virty [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) work done by gravitational force

= mg sinθ ( d + .21)

Potential energy stored in compressed spring

= 1/2 k x²

= .5 x 431 x ( .21 )²

= 9.5

According to conservation of energy

mg sinθ ( d + .21) = 9.5

3.2 x 9.8 x sin 30( d + .21 ) = 9.5

d = 40 cm

b )

As long as mg sin30 is greater than kx ( restoring force ) , there will be acceleration in the block.

mg sin30 = kx

3.2 x 9.8 x .5 = 431 x

x = 3.63 cm

When there is compression of 3.63 cm in the spring , block will have maximum velocity. there after its speed will start decreasing.

A diverging lens (f1 = -12.0cm) is located 50.0 cm to the left of a converging lens (f2 = 34.0 cm). A 2.0 cm-tall object stands

pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

The final image relative to the converging lens is 34 cm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Focal length of diverging lens = -12.0 cm

Focal length of converging lens = 34.0 cm

Height of object = 2.0 cm

Distance of object = 12 cm

Because object at focal point

We need to calculate the image distance of diverging lens

Using formula of lens

$\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{f}-\dfrac{1}{u}$

$\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{-12}-\dfrac{1}{-12}$

$v=\infty$

The rays are parallel to the principle axis after passing from the diverging lens.

We need to calculate the image distance of converging lens

Now, object distance is ∞

Using formula of lens

$\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{34}-\dfrac{1}{\infty}$

$v=34$

The image distance is 34 cm right to the converging lens.

Hence, The final image relative to the converging lens is 34 cm.
