The owner of a van installs a rear-window lens that has a focal length of -0.304 m. When the owner looks out through the lens at

a person standing directly behind the van, the person appears to be just 0.237 m from the back of the van, and appears to be 0.343 m tall. (a) How far from the van is the person actually standing

Answer:

p =-1.03

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Focal length of lens f=-0.304 m

Image distance q=0.237 m

Height of image H_i=0.343  

Generally the lens equation is mathematically given by

\frac{1}{f}  = \frac{1}{q}  - \frac{1}{p}

Where p is Subject

p =  \frac{(qf) }{(f - q)}

p =  \frac{(-0.237)(-0.304)) }{((-0.304) - (0.237))}

p =-1.03

Therefore the distance between  the person and the car is

p =-1.03

What is current electricity? write down its use in our daily like ​.
Karolina [17]

Answer: Current electricity is a form of electricity in which charges constantly flow. Current electricity is dynamic while static electricity, as the name suggests, is static. How does current electricity work? The steady flow of electrons is termed as current electricity. Uses of Electricity in Household Starting from toaster to refrigerator, microwave, washing machine, dishwasher, electrical chimney, and many more appliances which are simple to use and made for the convenience of day to day activities use electricity to function.

A box slides down a 30.0° ramp with an acceleration of 1.20 m/s^2. Determine the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box
Zielflug [23.3K]

m = mass of the box

N = normal force on the box

f = kinetic frictional force on the box

a = acceleration of the box

μ = coefficient of kinetic friction

perpendicular to incline , force equation is given as

N = mg Cos30                                         eq-1

kinetic frictional force is given as

f = μ N

using eq-1

f = μ mg Cos30    


parallel to incline , force equation is given as

mg Sin30 - f = ma

mg Sin30 - μ mg Cos30  = ma

"m" cancel out

a = g Sin30 - μ g Cos30

inserting the values

1.20 = (9.8) Sin30 - (9.8) Cos30 μ

μ = 0.44

11. Reflecting telescopes are popular because they're _______ than a refracting telescope.
Anon25 [30]
I do not know what the school expects as an answer, but advantage of reflecting telescopes is that there is only one major reflecting surface, so it is quite easy to create a 6 or 8 inch telescope by an amateur, after adding on a prism and an eyepiece.  (a microscope eyepiece could be used).
MY answer would be "easier to build".  (it still takes tens of hours to grind and polish the single plane surface to a parabolic surface).

Electromagnetic waves all have the same velocity in the same medium.  However, since frequencies vary widely, so do wavelengths.
