Answer:

0.857 cm

Explanation:

We are given that:

The focal length for a convex lens to be (f) = 1.5cm

The object distance (u) = - 2.0 cm

We are to determine the image distance (v) = ??? cm

By applying the lens formula:

$\dfrac{1}{f} = \dfrac{1}{u}+\dfrac{1}{v}$

By rearrangement and making (v) the subject of the above formula:

$v = \dfrac{uf}{u-f}$

replacing the given values:

$v = \dfrac{(-2.0)(1.5)}{(-2.0 -1.5)}$

$v = \dfrac{-3.0}{(-3.5)}$

v = 0.857 cm

During take-off a 5kg model rocket, initially at rest, burns fuel for 4.6s causing its speed to increase from rest to 39m/s duri

MrRa [10]

Answer:

The height is "89.61 m". A further explanation is given below.

Explanation:

According to the question,

Mass of rocket,

m = 5 kg

Time,

t = 4.6 s

Initial speed of rod

u = o m/s

Final speed,

v = 39 m/s

drag,

= 60 N

So,

⇒ acceleration, $a=\frac{v-u}{t}$

$=\frac{39-0}{4.6}$

$= 8.478 \ m/s^2$

⇒ $F_{net}= Net \ force$

$=ma$

$=5\times 8.478$

$=42.89 \ N$

Now,

The thrust will be:

⇒ $Thrust-weight-drag=Net \ force$

⇒ $Thrust-(5\times 9.8)-60=42.89$

⇒ $Thrust-49-60=42.89$

⇒ $Thrust-109=42.89$

⇒ $Thrust=42.89+109$

⇒ $Thrust=151.89 \ N$

The height will be:

⇒ $h=\frac{1}{2} at^2$

$=\frac{1}{2}\times 8.47\times (4.6)^2$

$=\frac{1}{2}\times 8.47\times 21.16$

$=89.61 \ m$

Explain why the sound produced by every vibrating body cannot be heard by us ?

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

The human ear is not sensitive to every frequency of sound, rather, our hearing range is from 20Hz to 20,000Hz. This means sound frequencies outside this range are not audible to the human ear, which is why not every sound produced is heard. This is quite a blessing because if we could hear every vibrating body, then our ears would never stop listening: we won't be able to distinguish 'important sounds' from unimportant ones, rendering our ears effectively useless. Perhaps this is why we have a hearing range in the first place: sounds of our friends and our foes lie in 20Hz-20kHz range.
