In the autocollimation experiment of Sec. 3.5, a thin convex lens is placed 25 cm from a pinhole that acts as a point source of

light. A plane mirror placed 20 cm behind the lens reflects the light back through the lens, and the reflected light forms a sharp spot beside the pinhole. What is the focal length of the lens (in cm)?

Answer:

25 cm

Explanation:

Since, in the question it is given that the final image after reflection through the convex lens and then the reflection by the plane mirror is formed at the pinhole itself.

This means that the pinhole must be at the focus of the convex lens, such that the lens makes the ray perpendicular to the mirror and hence focal length of the lens = 25 cm.

TRUE OR FALSE : Boyle’s law states that, as the pressure of a gas increases, the volume decreases.
sveta [45]

At first glance, this statement seems to be true.  But after about a
microsecond of further consideration, one realizes that the statement
would actually set Boyle spinning in his grave, and is false.

Boyle's law states that there is a firm relationship among the pressure,
temperature, and volume of an ideal gas, and that you can't say anything
about how any two of these quantities depend on each other, unless you
also say what's happening to the third one at the same time.

As the pressure of an ideal gas increases, the volume will decrease in
direct proportion to the volume, IF THE TEMPERATURE OF THE GAS
REMAINS CONSTANT.

If you wanted to, you could increase the pressure AND the volume of an
ideal gas both at the same time.  You would just need to warm it enough
while you squeeze it.

Which term refers to the use of strength to hold the body's position?
Andrew [12]

Answer:

Th e correct answer is B. Balance

Explanation:

Balance is an ability of a body to maintain the line of gravity with negligible postural sway. Sway is the horizontal movement of the center of gravity of a body if a body is standing still.

If you want to stay for a long period of time in one position without movement, then you need  balance. So the term refers to the use of strength to hold the body's position is balance.

Agility refers to the flexibility of the body or jumping

Power means Strength in general

Speed is the ability that how can a person run fast.

If; One postive, and one negative they would be attracked. >-<

If; one postive and the other was postive, (or vice versa) they would repel <->

they both have an electrical charge, and force.

Neutral's are Nueatral. they have to opisition or attraction= No electrical force.
