What happens to parallel light rays that strike a concave lens?

Physics
1 answer:
torisob [31]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

They diverge on refraction

Explanation:

When parallel light rays strike a concave lens, they will diverge that is they spread out .

Concave lens is also known as diverging lens, which means that when parallel rays of light strike on it, the lens spreads out the light rays ( that is it diverges the rays of light) that are refracted through it.

At the middle  of concave lens is thinner.  

When light is passes through the lens they diverge it or spread out.

The concave lens causes light rays to bend away or diverge from its axis since the concave lens is a diverging lens.

The first ionization energy of a hydrogen atom is 2.18 aj (attojoules). what is the frequency and wavelength, in nanometers, of
jasenka [17]

1) Frequency: 3.29\cdot 10^{15}Hz

the energy of the photon absorbed must be equal to the ionization enegy of the atom, which is

E=2.18 aJ=2.18\cdot 10^{-18} J

The energy of a photon is given by

E=hf

where h=6.63\cdot 10^{-34}Js is the Planck's constant. By using the energy written above and by re-arranging thsi formula, we can calculate the frequency of the photon:

f=\frac{E}{h}=\frac{2.18\cdot 10^{-18} J}{6.63\cdot 10^{-34} Js}=3.29\cdot 10^{15} Hz


2) Wavelength: 91.2 nm

The wavelength of the photon can be found from its frequency, by using the following relationship:

\lambda=\frac{c}{f}

where c=3\cdot 10^8 m/s is the speed of light and f is the frequency. Substituting the frequency, we find

\lambda=\frac{3\cdot 10^8 m/s}{3.29\cdot 10^{15}Hz}=9.12\cdot 10^{-8} m=91.2 nm

What is the acceleration of the box?
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

a=4,32m/s^2

Explanation:

Fnet = F1 - F2

= 12-1.2

= 10.8N

m=2.5kg

Fnet =ma

10.8=2.5a then divide both sides by 2.5 to get acceleration

A damped mass/spring system takes 14.0 s for its amplitude of the oscillator to decrease by a factor of 9. By what factor does t
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

The correct answer is "0.246".

Explanation:

Given that the amplitude is decreased by a factor of 9, then

A \rightarrow (A-\frac{A}{9} )

A \rightarrow \frac{8A}{9}

As we know,

Energy will be:

⇒  E_{1}=\frac{1}{2}KA^2

and,

⇒  E_{2}=\frac{1}{2}K(\frac{8A}{9} )^2

          =\frac{64KA^2}{162}

⇒  \Delta E=E_1-E_2

On putting the estimated values, we get

           =\frac{1}{2}KA^2-\frac{64KA^2}{162}

⇒  \frac{\Delta E}{E}=\frac{\frac{20}{162}KA^2}{\frac{1}{2}KA^2}

          =\frac{40}{162}

          =0.246
