<em>The convex lens is a lens that converges rays of light that convey parallel to its principal axis (i.e. converges the incident rays towards the principal axis) which is relatively thick across the middle and thin at the lower and upper edges. The edges are curved outward rather than inward.</em>
The answer to the question '<span>In a series of undisturbed rock layers where shale lies between sandstone below and limestone above, the __." would be limestone is youngest. Out of all the rock layers, the limestone is dated to be the youngest of all.</span>
<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>
-The total momentum of an isolated system is constant.
-The total momentum of any number of particles is equal to the vector sum of the momenta of the individual particles.
-The vector sum of forces acting on a particle equals the rate of change of momentum of the particle with respect to time.
<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
- Momentum is a vector quantity, and therefore we need to use vector addition when summing together the momenta of the multiple bodies which make up a system.
- The vector sum of forces acting on a particle is equivalent to the rate of change of momentum of the particle with respect to time. This is according to the Newton's second Law of motion. In mathematical terms, ֿF = d ֿp/dt, that is F= ma.
- According to the Law of conservation of Momentum, or a collision occurring between object 1 and object 2 in an isolated system, the total momentum of the two objects before the collision is equal to the total momentum of the two objects after the collision.
