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.

A battery with an emf of 12.0 V shows a terminal voltage of 11.8 V when operating in a circuit with two lightbulbs rated at 3.0
Blababa [14]

Answer:

R = 24 ohm

Explanation:

As we know that terminal voltage and EMF of cell is given as

V = EMF - ir

ir = 12 - 11.8

ir = 0.2 Volts

resistance of two bulbs is given as

R = \frac{V^2}{P}

R = \frac{12^2}{3}

R = 48 ohm

now these two bulbs are connected in parallel

so equivalent resistance is given as

\frac{1}{R} = \frac{1}{R_1} + \frac{1}{R_2}

\frac{1}{R} = \frac{1}{48} + \frac{1}{48}

so we have

R = 24 ohm

Alecsey [184]

Answer: The correct answer is- Field.

Explanation -

The modified space around a charged particle is known as electric field.

The strength of electric field at a point is calculated as the force experienced by a unit test charge present at that point.


Thus, a region of space in which a test charge experiences a force is referred to as Field.
