Answer:

I got this question on Ap3x. The answer is Car C...I got it correct

Explanation:

This is because Car C is at the lowest point with the lowest amount of potential energy. Potential energy is stored at it's highest when it has the "potential" to fall, move, or etc. Car C seems to have gone farther down from the high point of the slope, meaning that most of the potential energy transformed into kinetic energy. All in all, Car C has the least potential energy. (Please give Brainliest, or not...your choice but this is the first question that I answered)

The lens-makers’ equation applies to a lens immersed in a liquid if n in the equation is replaced by n2/n1. Here n2 refers to th
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

a

The focal length of the lens in water is  f_{water} = 262.68 cm

b

The focal length of the mirror in water is  f =79.0cm

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The index of refraction of the lens material = n_2

    The index of refraction of the medium surrounding the lens = n_1

 

The lens maker's formula is mathematically represented as

            \frac{1}{f} = (n -1) [\frac{1}{R_1} - \frac{1}{R_2}  ]

Where f is the focal length

            n is the index of refraction

            R_1 and R_2 are the radius of curvature of sphere 1 and 2 of the lens

From the question When the lens in air  we have  

           \frac{1}{f_{air}} = (n-1) [\frac{1}{R_1} - \frac{1}{R_2}  ]

    When immersed in liquid the formula becomes

          \frac{1}{f_{water}} = [\frac{n_2}{n_1} - 1 ] [\frac{1}{R_1} - \frac{1}{R_2}  ]

The ratio of the focal length of the the two medium is mathematically evaluated as

           \frac{f_water}{f_{air}} = \frac{n_2 -1}{[\frac{n_2}{n_1} - 1] }

From the question

      f_{air }= 79.0 cm

       n_2 = 1.55

and the refractive index of water(material surrounding the lens) has a constant value of  n_1 = 1.33

         \frac{f_{water}}{79}  = \frac{1.55- 1}{\frac{1.55}{1.44}  -1}

           f_{water} = 262.68 cm

b

The focal length of a mirror is dependent on the concept of reflection which is not affected by medium around it.

Which of the following statements are true of an object in orbit around Earth? (Select all that apply.) The gravity force on the
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

All these statement are true

Explanation:

Gravity will be acting like a centripetal force for the circular motion of object around earth, which makes it perpendicular to the velocity vector. In the case of elliptical motion, gravity can still be divided into 2 vectors, one parallel and the other perpendicular to the velocity. At the nearest point in elliptical motion, gravity is directly perpendicular to velocity just like in circular motion. At the farthest point, the potential energy is minimized and has been converted into kinetic energy. Therefore at this point the speed is greatest.
