Digiron [165]

Answer:

Conductivity probe

Explanation:

The Conductivity Probe consists of two electrodes(also referred to as probes)or an electrode and a wall vessel where the material in the vessel completes the circuit as the level rises in the vessel.

It is used in measuring solution conductivity or total ionic concentration of aqueous samples.

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

Consider a block on a spring oscillating on a frictionless surface. The amplitude of the oscillation is 11 cm, and the speed of
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

The angular frequency of the block is ω = 5.64 rad/s

Explanation:

The speed of the block v = rω where r = amplitude of the oscillation and ω = angular frequency of the oscillation.

Now ω = v/r since v = speed of the block = 62 cm/s and r = the amplitude of the oscillation = 11 cm.

The angular frequency of the oscillation ω is

ω = v/r

ω = 62 cm/s ÷ 11 cm

ω = 5.64 rad/s

So, the angular frequency of the block is ω = 5.64 rad/s

It is your parent's 25th Wedding Anniversary and you thought it would be special to throw them a surprise party. Your entire fam
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

120 miles per hour.

Explanation:

We need to find the time it takes my parents to drive home from the cottage. Since my father drives at 60 miles per hour, and the cottage is 240 miles from our home, and distance = speed × time. So, time = distance/speed = 240 mi/60 mi/h = 4 h.

So, it will take my father 4 hours to drive home from the cottage.

Since I have 2 hours to prepare for the party, the time left for me to drive to the cottage is 4 - 2 hrs = 2 hrs.

So, I'm supposed to drive to the cottage in at most 2 hours.

The speed at which I must drive in this time period is thus,  speed = distance/time = 240 miles/2 hours = 120 miles per hour.

So, I must drive at a minimum speed of 120 miles per hour.
