Distinguish between a converging lens and a diverging lens.

andriy [413]

Answer:A converging lens is thickest in the middle and causes parallel light rays to converge through the focal point on the opposite side of the lens. A diverging lens is thinner in the middle and causes parallel light rays to diverge away from the focal point on the same side of the lens.

A child is riding in a child-restraint chair, securely fastened to the seat of a car. Assume the car has speed 47 km/h when it h

Elina [12.6K]

Answer: F = 1235 N

Explanation: Newton's Second Law of Motion describes the effect of mass and net force upon acceleration: $F_{net}=m.a$

Acceleration is the change of velocity in a period of time: $a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}$

Velocity of the car is in km/h. Transforming it in m/s:

$v=\frac{47.10^{3}}{36.10^{2}}$

v = 13 m/s

At the moment the car decelerates, acceleration is

$a=\frac{13}{0.2}$

a = 65 m/s²

Then, force will be

$F_{net}=19(65)$

$F_{net}$ = 1235 N

The horizontal net force the straps of the restraint chair exerted on the child to hold her is 1235 newtons.

Two metal spheres are suspended from strings. The

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

B. A repulsive force of 8.0*10^3 N.

Explanation:

As we know by Coulomb's law that the electrostatic force between two charges is given as

$F = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}$

here we know that

$q_1 = -2 \times 10^2 C$

$q_2 = -4 \times 10^{-8} C$

r = 3.0 m

now we have

$F = \frac{(9 \times 10^9)(2 \times 10^2)(4\times 10^{-8})}{3^2}$

$F = 8000 N$

since both charges are similar charges so they will repel each other by the force we calculated above so correct answer will be

B. A repulsive force of 8.0*10^3 N.
