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.

Find the ratio of the new/old periods of a pendulum if the pendulum were transported from earth to the moon, where the accelerat

vichka [17]

The period of a pendulum is given by
$T=2 \pi \sqrt{ \frac{L}{g} }$
where L is the pendulum length and g is the gravitational acceleration.

We can write down the ratio between the period of the pendulum on the Moon and on Earth by using this formula, and we find:
$\frac{T_m}{T_e} = \frac{2 \pi \sqrt{ \frac{L}{g_m} } }{2 \pi \sqrt{ \frac{L}{g_e} } }= \sqrt{ \frac{g_e}{g_m} }$
where the labels m and e refer to "Moon" and "Earth".

Since the gravitational acceleration on Earth is $g_e = 9.81 m/s^2$ while on the Moon is $g_m=1.63 m/s^2$ , the ratio between the period on the Moon and on Earth is
$\frac{T_m}{T_e}= \sqrt{ \frac{g_e}{g_m} }= \sqrt{ \frac{9.81 m/s^2}{1.63 m/s^2} }=2.45$

A car that is standing still accelerates up a hill with a slope of 6.4% at an average acceleration of 2.93 ft/s^2. The hill is 1

alexgriva [62]

Answer:

213 s

Explanation:

Slope is the ratio of change in vertical distance to change in horizontal distance.

Slope = vertical height / horizontal height

Therefore:

6.4% = vertical height / 12.42

vertical height = 6.4% * 12.42

vertical height = 0.8 miles

The distance travelled by the car (s) is:

s² = 0.8² + 12.42²

s² = 154.9

s = 12.45 miles

Acceleration (a) = 2.93 ft/s^2 = 0.00055 mile/s²

initial velocity (u) = 0, final velocity = 203 mph

Using:

s = ut + 0.5at²

12.45 = 0.5(0.00055)t²

t =213 s

Two charged objects, A and B, are exerting an electric force on each other. What will happen if the charge on A is increased?

ozzi

Answer: The forces acting on both of them will increase in magnitude.

Explanation:

According to Coulomb's law, the electrostatic force between two bodies is proportional to the product of their two charges. If the charge on A is increased this product increases in size (it must have been non-zero to begin with, since there was a force between them at first). Thus, the force between them rises.
