What is escape velocity ​

Physics
1 answer:
DanielleElmas [232]3 years ago

Escape velocity is the speed that an object needs to be traveling to break free of a planet or moon's gravity well and leave it without further propulsion. For example, a spacecraft leaving the surface of Earth needs to be going 7 miles per second, or nearly 25,000 miles per hour to leave without falling back to the surface or falling into orbit.

Which statement about thin lenses is correct? In each case, we are considering only a single lens. A. A diverging lens always pr
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

E) true. The image is always virtual and erect

Explanation:

In this exercise we are asked to find the correct statements,

for this we can use the constructor equation

     1 / f = 1 / p + 1 / q

where f is the focal length, p the distance to the object and q the distance to the image

In diverging lenses, the focal length is negative and the image is virtual and erect

In convergent lenses, the positive focal length, if the object is farther than the focal length, the image is real and inverted, and if the object is at a shorter distance than the focal length, the image is virtual and straight.

With this analysis let's review each statement

A) False. The image is right

B) False. The type of image depends on where the object is with respect to the focal length

C) False. The real image is always inverted

D) False. The image is always virtual

E) true. The image is always virtual and erect
