an object 50 cm high is placed 1 m in front of a converging lens whose focal length is 1.5 m. determine the image height (in cm)
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Given :

An object 50 cm high is placed 1 m in front of a converging lens whose focal length is 1.5 m.

To Find :

the image height (in cm).

Solution :

By lens formula :

\dfrac{1}{v} - \dfrac{1}{u} = \dfrac{1}{f}

Here, u = - 100 cm

f =  150 cm

\dfrac{1}{v} - \dfrac{1}{-100} = \dfrac{1}{150}\\\\v = - 300 \ cm

Now, magnification is given by :

m = \dfrac{v}{u} = \dfrac{h_i}{h_o}\\\\h_i = \dfrac{300}{100}\times 1\\\\h_i = 3 \ m

Therefore, the image height is 3 m or 300 cm.

2. A student drives 7.8-km trip to school and averages a speed of
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

<em>The total time is: t=451.22 sec</em>

<em>The average speed is: V=34.57 m/s</em>

Explanation:

<u>Average speed</u>

The average speed is calculated by dividing the total distance traveled by an object (x) by the total time it took it to travel that distance (t).

\displaystyle V=\frac{x}{t}

Since the student makes the trip in two parts, we have to calculate the total distance and the total time.

We know the distance to school is 7.8 Km = 7,800 m. The student makes his way home over the same distance, thus the total distance is

x=2*7,800 m=15,600 m

The first trip to school was done at an average speed of v1=32.6 m/s. Knowing the distance and speed, we can calculate the time:

\displaystyle t1=\frac{x1}{v1}=\frac{7,800}{32.6}=239.26\ sec

The second trip back home was done at an average speed of v2=36.8 m/s. Let's calculate the second time:

\displaystyle t2=\frac{x2}{v2}=\frac{7,800}{36.8}=211.96\ sec

The total time is:

t=239.26\ sec+211.96\ sec=451.22\ sec

\boxed{t=451.22\ sec}

The average speed is:

\displaystyle V=\frac{15,600}{451.22}=34.57\ m/s

\boxed{\displaystyle V=34.57\ m/s}

The nucleus of some isotopes will spontaneously undergo nuclear decay. These isotopes are said to be radioactive. What causes th
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

Here, he is able both to share his own suffering and—in a way that Mammy cannot—insist on his love for Laila. Babi's dream for leaving Afghanistan is, ironically, based in his love for the country—a love he thinks can be better kept alive by continuing to celebrate its culture and cuisine abroad.JThe nucleus of some isotopes will spontaneously undergo nuclear decay. These isotopes are said to be radioactive. What causes the nucleus of an isotope to be radioactive?

The electric force and nuclear forces are in opposition to each other

Nuclear forces disintegrate protons

There are too many electrons in its orbitals

The electric force causes electrons to be released

(please help i genuinely cant find out why)Babi had wanted Laila and Tariq to understand their country's living, breathing heritage—a heritage quite apart from the violence and turmoil of the national wars. The Buddhas, testimony to an ancient community of monks that lived in caves within the cliffs, symbolize the cultural richness of this national heritageAs an unstable atom tries to reach a stable form, energy and matter are released from the nucleus. This spontaneous change in the nucleus is called radioactive decay. When there is a change in the nucleus and one element changes into another, it is called transmutation.Carbon-14 is unstable and undergoes radioactive decay with a half-life of about 5,730 years (meaning that half of the material will be gone after 5,730 years). This decay means the amount of carbon-14 in an object serves as a clock, showing the object's age in a process called “carbon dating.”Nuclear decay occurs when the nucleus of an atom is unstable and spontaneously emits energy in the form of radiation. The result is that the nucleus changes into the nucleus of one or more other elements. These daughter nuclei have a lower mass and are more stable (lower in energy) than the parent nucleus.
