What happens to light when it passes through a lens?

2 answers:

7 0

B. Light refracts as it passes through a lens.

The bending of a ray of light also occurs when light passes into and out of a glass lens. ... Because a convex lens can cause rays of light to converge, it can produce an image on a screen.

At the equator, the radius of the Earth is approximately 6370 km. A plane flies at a very low altitude at a constant speed of v

Cerrena [4.2K]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the kinematic equations of linear motion. From there we will define the distance as the circumference of the earth (approximate as a sphere). With the speed given in the statement we will simply clear the equations below and find the time.

$R= 6370*10^3 m$

$v = 239m/s$

$a = 16.5m/s^2$

The circumference of the earth would be

$\phi = 2\pi R$

Velocity is defined as,

$v = \frac{x}{t}$

$t = \frac{x}{v}$

Here $x = \phi$ , then

$t = \frac{\phi}{v} = \frac{2\pi (6370*10^3)}{239}$

$t = 167463.97s$

Therefore will take 167463.97 s or 1 day 22 hours 31 minutes and 3.97seconds

Find the magnitude of the free-fall acceleration at the orbit of the Moon (a distance of 60RE from the center of the Earth with

Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

The magnitude of the free-fall acceleration at the orbit of the Moon is $2.728\times 10^{-3}\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ ( $\frac{2.784}{10000}\cdot g$ , where $g = 9.8\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ ).

Explanation:

According to the Newton's Law of Gravitation, free fall acceleration ( $g$ ), in meters per square second, is directly proportional to the mass of the Earth ( $M$ ), in kilograms, and inversely proportional to the distance from the center of the Earth ( $r$ ), in meters:

$g = \frac{G\cdot M}{r^{2}}$ (1)

Where:

$G$ - Gravitational constant, in cubic meters per kilogram-square second.

$M$ - Mass of the Earth, in kilograms.

$r$ - Distance from the center of the Earth, in meters.

If we know that $G = 6.674\times 10^{-11}\,\frac{m^{3}}{kg\cdot s^{2}}$ , $M = 5.972\times 10^{24}\,kg$ and $r = 382.26\times 10^{6}\,m$ , then the free-fall acceleration at the orbit of the Moon is:

$g = \frac{\left(6.674\times 10^{-11}\,\frac{m^{3}}{kg\cdot s^{2}} \right)\cdot (5.972\times 10^{24}\,kg)}{(382.26\times 10^{6}\,m)^{2}}$

$g = 2.728\times 10^{-3}\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$

Two objects are dropped from rest from the same height. Object A falls through a distance Da and during a time t, and object B f

stiv31 [10]

Answer:

Da=(1/4)Db

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

When s = Da, t = t

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow Da=0\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times a\times t^2\\\Rightarrow Da=\frac{1}{2}at^2$

When s = Db, t = 2t

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow Da=0\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times a\times (2t)^2\\\Rightarrow Db=\frac{1}{2}a4t^2$

Dividing the two equations

$\frac{Da}{Db}=\frac{\frac{1}{2}at^2}{\frac{1}{2}a4t^2}=\frac{1}{4}\\\Rightarrow \frac{Da}{Db}=\frac{1}{4}\\\Rightarrow Da=\frac{1}{4}Db$

Hence, Da=(1/4)Db

PLEASE HELP ME!! What is the difference between direct current and alternating current?

Paha777 [63]

In a direct current the electric charge flows in one direction.
in an alternating the electric charge changes in its direction periodically.
