What is a convex lens?​

Physics
2 answers:
Leona [35]2 years ago

<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>

A lens bound by two spherical surfaces bulging outwards and a single piece of glass that curves outward and converges the light incident on it are both convex lenses

Which of the following phenomena support the idea that light is a wave?
Pie

Answer:

Wave theory of light explains the phenomena of interference, diffraction, scattering, dispersion, polarisation etc. Complete solution: Around 1700, it was concluded by Newton that light was a group of particles. It was called corpuscular theory.

A toaster uses 6700 joules of energy in 45 seconds to toast to a piece of bread what is power of the oven
just olya [345]
P= w/t and W= Work 
In this case, W= 6,700j, and T= 45 seconds
Power is the ratio of work  per unit time. When you perform a work in a given span of time, the ratio of work performed with respect to time is Called Power. 
si unit for Power is Watt (W) 
so, P= 6,700/45
P= 148 
Final answer is P=148

At 20 degrees Celsius, conducting wires made of different materials have the same length and the same diameter. Which wire has t
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

Aluminium

Explanation:

Aluminium has the least resistance since It has 3 free electrons per atom. Its resistivity is low compared to other metals provided in the choices (gold, nichrome, tungsten). Low resistivity of metals means a high conductance of the metal referred to.

At the surface of Jupiter's moon Io, the acceleration due to gravity is 1.81m/s2 . A watermelon has a weight of 58.0N at the sur
kvasek [131]

Answer: A) mass on earth surface = 5.91kg

B) mass on surface of jupiter = 5.91kg

C) weight on surface of jupiter = 10.697N

Explanation:

The relationship between weight (W), mass (m) and acceleration due gravity (g) is given below

W=mg

From the question, g= 9.8m/s² and weight on the surface on the earth is 58N

A) The mass of watermelon on earth is

m = 58/ 9.8 = 5.91kg

B) the mass of the watermelon on jupiter is 5.91kg.

You will notice this is the same as the mass of watermelon on earth and that is so because mass is a scalar quantity that does not depends on the distance away from the center of the earth (unlike weight which is a vector) thus making it constant all through any location.

C) mass of watermelon is 5.91kg, g=9.8m/s² weight of watermelon on jupiter is given below as

W = mg

W = 5.91 x 9.8

= 10.697N.

Bicyclists in the Tour de France do enormous amounts of work during a race. For example, the average power per kilogram generate
tigry1 [53]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Average power per unit mass generated by Lance, \dfrac{P}{m}=6.5\ W/kg

P=6.5\times 75=487.5\ W

(a) Distance to cover race, d = 160\ km =160\times 10^3\ m

Average speed of the person, v = 11 m/s

If t is the time taken to cover the race.

t=\dfrac{d}{v}

t=\dfrac{160\times 10^3\ m}{11\ m/s}

t = 14545.46 s

Let W is the work done. The relation between the work done and the power is given by :

P=\dfrac{W}{t}

W=P\times t

W=487.5\times 14545.46

W = 7090911.75 J

(b) Since, 1\ J=2.389\times 10^{-4}\ calories

So, in 7090911.75 J, W=7090911.75 \times 2.389\times 10^{-4}

W = 1694.01 J

Hence, this is the required solution.
