Answer:

b. passes through the principal focal point.

Explanation:

Light wave can be defined as an electromagnetic wave that do not require a medium of propagation for it to travel through a vacuum of space where no particles exist.

A lens can be defined as a transparent optical instrument that refracts rays of light to produce a real image.

Basically, there are two (2) main types of lens and these includes;

I. Diverging (concave) lens.

II. Converging (convex) lens.

A converging lens refers to a type of lens that typically causes parallel rays of light with respect to its principal axis to come to a focus (converge) and form a real image. This type of lens is usually thin at the lower and upper edges and thick across the middle.

For a converging lens, a ray arriving parallel to the optic axis passes through the principal focal point.

It is dangerous to stand near the railway leak when train passing by,why?

Harman [31]

It is dangerous to stand close to railroad tracks when a rapidly moving commuter train passes. Explain why atmospheric pressure would push you toward the moving train. Water pressure inside a hose nozzle can be less than atmospheric pressure due to the Bernoulli effect.

Pls brainliest!? :)

Joaquin mows the lawn at his grandmother’s home during the summer months. Joaquin measured the

Velocity is define as how fast an object is moving, and in what direction, it is a vector quantity, meaning velocity has both magnitude and direction. Anything goes to the left is negative, and anything goes to the right is positive.

a. Direction from east to west, given distance 11.5 meters, and time of 7.10 s

V = displacement/time V = -11.5/7.10 S V = -1.62 m/s (going left)

b. Joaquin reaches his original position. Displacement is now zero.

Velocity of the lawnmower is equal to "zero" but if we calculate for the average speed of the lawn, you just have to add the distance covered and the time it take to go back at the original position or point of origin

A child on a swing sweeps out a distance of 45 ft on the first pass. If she is allowed to continue swinging until she stops, an

earnstyle [38]

Answer:

d = 90 ft

Explanation:

Here in each swing the distance sweeps by the swing is half of the initial distance that it will move

So here we can say that total distance in whole motion is given as

$d = 45 + \frac{45}{2} + \frac{45}{4} + \frac{45}{8}..........$

since it is half of the distance that it will move in each swing so it would be a geometric progression with common ratio of 1/2

so sum of such GP is given by the formula

$S = \frac{a}{1 - r}$

$d = \frac{45}{1 - \frac{1}{2}}$

$d = 90 ft$

A proton moves perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field B at a speed of 2.30 107 m/s and experiences an acceleration of 1.70 10

anzhelika [568]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given the following :

Speed (V) = speed of 2.30×10^7 m/s

Acceleration (a) = 1.70×10^13 m/s^2

Using the right hand rule provided by Lorentz law:

B = F / qvSinΘ

Where B = magnitude of the magnetic field

v = speed of the particle

Θ = 90° (perpendicular to the field)

q = charge of the particle

SinΘ = sin90° = 1

Note F = ma

Therefore,

B = ma / qvSinΘ

Mass of proton = 1.67 × 10^-27

Charge = 1.6 × 10^-19 C

B = [(1.67 × 10^-27) × (1.70 × 10^13)] / (1.6 × 10^-19) × (2.30 × 10^7) × 1

B = 2.839 × 10^-14 / 3.68 × 10^-12

B = 0.7715 × 10^-2

B = 7.72 × 10^-3 T

2) Magnetic field will be in the negative y direction according to the right hand thumb rule.

Since Velocity is in the positive z- direction, acceleration in the positive x - direction, then magnetic field must be in the negative y-direction.
