Answer: the focal length of the CCl4-glass combination is 102.31 cm

Explanation:

Given that;

Index of refraction n1 = 1.55

carbon tetrachloride (CCl4), which has n2 = 1.46

radii of curvature for its surfaces R1 = 4.6cm and R2 = 9.20 cm

the focal length of the CCl4-glass combination = ?

we can determine the focal length using the Formula;

1/f = ( n1 - n2) ( 1/R1 - 1/R)

so we substitute in our values

1/f = ( 1.55 - 1.46 ( 1/4.6 - 1/9.20)

1/f = 0.09 × 0.1086

1/f = 0.009774

f = 1 / 0.009774

f = 102.31 cm

Therefore the focal length of the CCl4-glass combination is 102.31 cm

A bowler lifts his bowling ball a distance of 2 meters using 50 joules of energy. If, on Earth, a 1.0 kilograms mass weighs 9.8
NemiM [27]

Answer:

<em>m=2.551 kg</em>

Explanation:

Gravitational Potential Energy (GPE)

Energy is the capacity that a body has to do work due to any of its characteristics as speed, height, temperature, and many other physical magnitudes. The GPE is the one that depends on the relative height h that a body of mass m has respect to a given reference, and can be computed as

GPE=m.g.h

The bowler uses 50 Joules of energy to lift the ball by 2 meters, we can know the mass of the ball by solving the above equation for m

\displaystyle m=\frac{GPE}{g.h}

\displaystyle m=\frac{50}{(9.8).(2)}=2.551\ kg

\boxed{m=2.551\ kg}
