This is a great problem if you like getting tied up in knots
and making smoke come out of your brain.
I found that it makes the problem a lot easier if I give the objects some
numbers. I'm going to say that the mass of Object 5 is 20 clods.
Let the mass of Mass of Object 5 be 20 clods .
Then . . .
-- The mass of Object 2 is double the mass of Object 5 = 40 clods.
-- The mass of Object 4 is half of the mass of Object 5 = 10 clods.
and
-- the mass of Object 3 is half of the mass of Object 4 = 5 clods.
So now, here are the masses:
Object #1 . . . . . unknown
Object #2 . . . . . 40 clods
Object #3 . . . . . 5 clods
Object #4 . . . . . 10 clods
Object #5 . . . . . 20 clods .
Now let's check out the statements, and see how they stack up:
Choice-A:
Object 3 and Object 5 exert the same gravitational force on Object 1.
Can't be.
Objects #3 and #5 have different masses, so they can't both
exert the same force on the same mass.
Choice-B.
Object 2 and Object 4 exert the same gravitational force on Object 1.
Can't be.
Objects #2 and #4 have different masses, so they can't both
exert the same force on the same mass.
Choice-C.
The gravitational force between Object 1 and Object 2 is greater than
the gravitational force between Object 1 and Object 4.
Yes ! Yay !
Object-2 has more mass than Object-4 has, so it must exert more force on
ANYTHING than Object-4 does, (as long as the distances are the same).
Choice-D.
The gravitational force between Object 1 and Object 3 is greater than the gravitational force between Object 1 and Object 5.
Can't be.
Object-3 has less mass than Object-5 has, so it must exert less force on
ANYTHING than Object-4 does, (as long as the distances are the same).
Conclusion:
If the DISTANCE is the same for all the tests, then Choice-C is
the only one that can be true.
A diverging lens is used to permit clear vision of an object placed at infinity. The focal length of the lens is -100 cm.
<h3>What is focal length?</h3>
The focal length is half of the radius of curvature of the focal lens.
By the lens maker formula,
1/f = 1/v +1/u
where, v is the image distance and u is the object distance.
Give, the object is at infinity and the image must form at 100 cm, the the focal length will be
1/f = 1/ -100 + 1/∞
f = -100 cm
The focal length must be -100 cm for the diverging lens.

The process of refraction of light occurs when light rays bends when travelling between media of different densities.
What is refraction of light?
Refraction of light is the bending of light rays or the change in the direction of light rays as it travels between media of different densities.
Light waves travel faster in media of less density than media of more density.
The change in density of the media makes light waves to be bend towards or away from the normal.
For example, when light travels from less dense air to more dense water, the light rays are bent towards the normal. However, when light rays travel from water to air, the light rays are refracted away from the normal.
In conclusion, refraction of light waves occur when light crosses the boundary of media of different densities.

Answer:
Specific gravity can be used to determine if an object will sink or float on water. ... If an object or liquid has a specific gravity greater than one, it will sink. If the specific gravity of an object or a liquid is less than one, it will float.
hope this helps, have a great day/night, and stay safe!
Hi there!
We can use the rotational equivalent of Newton's Second Law:
Στ = Net Torque (Nm)
I = Moment of inertia (kgm²)
α = Angular acceleration (rad/sec²)
We can plug in the given values to solve.
