Alex

Answer:

0.33  Amp

8 Watts

Explanation:

The current through the 12 Ω resistor will be given by Ohm's law:

4 V / 12 Ω = 1/3 Amp ≈ 0.33  Amp

The power dissipated on the 2 Ω resistor can be calculated via the formula: \frac{V^2}{R}  which gives:

4^2 / 2 = 8 Watts

An insect 5.00 mm tall is placed 20.0 cm to the left of a thin planoconvex lens. The left surface of this lens is flat, the righ
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

a) i = -9.63 cm ,    h ’= .0.24075 cm   erect

b)  i = 259.74 cm ,

Explanation:

For this exercise let's start by finding the focal length of the lens

               1 / f = (n-1) (1 / R₁ - 1 / R₂)

                1 / f = (1.70 -1)) 1 / ∞ - 1/13)

                1 / f = 0.0538

                 f = - 18.57 cm

Now we can use the constructor equation

             1 / f = 1 / o + 1 / i

             1 / i = 1 / f - 1 / o

              1 / i = -1 / 18.57 -1/20

               1 / i = -0.1038 cm

               I = -9.63 cm

For the height of the

image let's use magnification

                 m = h '/ h = - i / o

                  h ’= -h i / o

                  h ’= - 0.5 (-9.63) / 20

                  h ’= .0.24075 cm

b) we invert the lens

The focal length is

             1 / f = (1.70 -1) (1/13 - 1 / int)

              1 / f = 0.0538

             f = 18.57 cm

             1 / i = 1 / f -1 / o

             1 / I = 1 / 18.57 - 1/20

             1 / I = 3.85 10-3

             i = 259.74 cm

     

            h ’= - 0.5 259.74 / 20

             h ’= 6.4935 cm

Drupady [299]

The phases of the moon are the changing appearances of the moon, as seen from Earth. Which phase happens immediately after a third quarter moon are the following

Explanation:

  • After the full moon (maximum illumination), the light continually decreases. So the waning gibbous phase occurs next. Following the third quarter is the waning crescent, which wanes until the light is completely gone -- a new moon.

waning gibbous phase

  • The waning gibbous phase occurs between the full moon and third quarter phases. The last quarter moon (or a half moon) is when half of the lit portion of the Moon is visible after the waning gibbous phase.

Time takes by the moon to go through all the phases

about 29.5 days

  • It takes 27 days, 7 hours, and 43 minutes for our Moon to complete one full orbit around Earth. This is called the sidereal month, and is measured by our Moon's position relative to distant “fixed” stars. However, it takes our Moon about 29.5 days to complete one cycle of phases (from new Moon to new Moon).
  • At 3rd quarter, the moon rises at midnight and sets at noon. Then we see only a crescent. At new, the moon rises at sunrise and sets at sunset, and we don't see any of the illuminated side!
