Explanation:

We have,

Height of object is 5 cm

Object distance from a convex lens is 18 cm

Focal length of convex lens is 10 cm

i.e. h = 5 cm

u = -18 cm

f = +10 cm

Let v is distance of the image from the lens. Using lens formula :

$\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{v}-\dfrac{1}{u}\\\\\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{f}+\dfrac{1}{u}\\\\\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{10}+\dfrac{1}{(-18)}\\\\v=22.5\ cm$

The magnification of lens is :

$m=\dfrac{v}{u}=\dfrac{h'}{h}$ , h' is height of the image

$\dfrac{v}{u}=\dfrac{h'}{h}\\\\h'=\dfrac{vh}{u}\\\\h'=\dfrac{22.5\times 4}{(-18)}\\\\h'=-5\ cm$

h' = -5.00 cm (in three significant figures)

An 89 kg man drops from rest on a diving board −3.1 m above the surface of the water and comes to rest 0.5 s after reaching the

OLga [1]

To solve this problem we will use the linear motion kinematic equations, for which the change of speed squared with the acceleration and the change of position. The acceleration in this case will be the same given by gravity, so our values would be given as,

$m= 89 kg\\x = 3.1 m\\t = 0.5s\\a = g = 9.8m/s^2$

Through the aforementioned formula we will have to

$v_f^2-v_i^2 = 2ax$

The particulate part of the rest, so the final speed would be

$v_f^2 = 2gx$

$v_f=\sqrt{2(9.8)(3.1)}$

$v_f = 7.79m/s$

Now from Newton's second law we know that

$F = ma$

Here,

m = mass

a = acceleration, which can also be written as a function of velocity and time, then

$F = m\frac{dv}{dt}$

Replacing we have that,

$F = (89)\frac{7.79}{0.5}$

$F = 1386.62N$

Therefore the force that the water exert on the man is 1386.62

An isotope undergoes radioactive decay by emitting radiation that has a –1 charge. What other characteristic does the radiation

weeeeeb [17]

<u>Answer:</u> The radiation emitted will have negligible mass number.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Radioactive decay is defined as the process in which an unstable nuclei breaks down into stable nuclei via various methods.

An isotope undergoes a radioactive decay to attain stability.

There are three types of decay process, but the process in which the emitted radiation carries a charge of -1 is beta decay.

Beta decay is defined as the decay process in which a neutron gets converted to a proton and an electron. In this decay process, beta particle is emitted. The emitted particle carries a charge of -1 units and has a mass of 0 units. The released beta particle is also known as electron.
