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

Work is done when spring is extended or compressed. Elastic potential energy is stored in the spring. Provided inelastic deformation has not happened, the work done is equal to the elastic potential energy stored.

Which example provides the most complete description of an object's motion?

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

The hiker followed a road heading north for 2 miles in 30 minutes.

Explanation:

In order to describe the motion of an object, distance covered and time taken must be required. The total path covered by an object is called the distance travelled.

The hiker followed a road heading north for 2 miles in 30 minutes. This describes the motion of hiker. The motion shows how fast the hiker is moving.

Distance, d = 2 miles = 3218.6 m

times, t = 30 minutes = 1800 seconds

So, we can say that the hiker is moving with a speed of 1.78 m/s in north direction.

Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:

Explanation:

KE = ½Iω²

ΚΕ = ½(mL²/3)ω²

ΚΕ = ½(0.63(0.82²)/3)4.2²

ΚΕ = 1.24541928

KE = 1.2 J

What current flows through a 2.54cm diameter rod of pure silicon that is 20cm long when 1000V is applied?

vfiekz [6]

Answer: $0.0039\ A$

Explanation:

Given

Diameter of the rod $d=2.54\ cm$

length of rod is $l=20\ cm$

Resistivity of silicon is $\rho=6.4\times 10^2\ \Omega-m$

cross-section of the rod $A$

$\Rightarrow A=\dfrac{\pi d^2}{4}\\\\\Rightarrow A=\dfrac{3.142\times 2.54^2\times 10^{-4}}{4}\\\\\Rightarrow A=5.067\times 10^{-4}\ m^2$

Resistance of rod is R

$\Rightarrow R=\dfrac{\rho l}{A}$

$\Rightarrow R=\dfrac{640\times 0.20}{5.067\times 10^{-4}}\\\\\Rightarrow R=25.26\times 10^4\ \Omega$

Current is given by

$\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{V}{R}\\\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{1000}{25.26\times 10^4}\\\\\Rightarrow I=0.0039\ A$

At the same moment from the top of a building 3.0 × 10 2 m tall, one rock is dropped and one is thrown downward with an initial

Bess [88]

The equation that relates distance, velocities, acceleration, and time is,
d = V₀t + 0.5gt²
where d is distance,
V₀ is the initial velocity,
t is time, and
g is the acceleration due to gravity (equal to 9.8 m/s²)

(1) Dropped rock,
(3 x 10² m ) = 0(t) + 0.5(9.8 m/s²)(t²)
The value of t from this equation is 24.73 s

(2) Thrown rock with V₀ = 26 m/s
(3 x 10² m) = (26)(t) + 0.5(9.8 m/s²)(t²)
The value of t from the equation is 5.61 s

The difference between the tim,
difference = 24.73 s - 5.61 s
difference = 19.12 s

<em>ANSWER: 19.12 s</em>
