Fill in the blank. Consider the inverse square law: When light leaves a light bulb, it spreads out over more and more space as i

t goes. This makes the light thinner, with less and less light present the further from the light bulb we look. If we stand looking at a light bulb and see how bright it is, then move to be four times farther away from the light bulb, the light from the bulb will look ____________ less bright.

Answer:

Explanation:

Intensity of light is inversely proportional to distance from source

I ∝ 1 /r²  where I is intensity and r is distance from source . If I₁ and I₂ be intensity at distance r₁ and r₂ .

I₁ /I₂ = r₂² /r₁²

If r₂ = 4r₁ ( given )

I₁ / I₂ = (4r₁ )² / r₁²

= 16 r₁² / r₁²

I₁ / I₂ = 16

I₂ = I₁ / 16

So intensity will become 16 times less bright .

"16 times " is the answer .

Andrei [34K]

Group 17 is the second column from the right in the periodic table and contains six elements: fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), iodine (I), astatine (As), and (Ts). Astatine and are radioactive elements with very short half-lives and thus do not occur naturally.

Does the horizontal distance d travelled by the ball depend on the height of release? If it does depend on the height, what is t
elena-s [515]

Answer:

Explanation:

Yes , the horizontal distance travelled by the ball will depend upon the height of release .

When a ball is thrown at some angle from a height , it has two components , the vertical component and horizontal component . The ball goes in horizontal direction due to its horizontal component . Its vertical component has no role to play .  But the horizontal range covered by the body thrown

depends upon the duration of time in which it remains in air . The longer it remains in air , the greater distance it can cover horizontally .

Horizontal distance covered = t x horizontal velocity

If V be the velocity of throw and Vx be its horizontal component

Horizontal distance covered = t x Vx

Now t depends upon the height . If height rises , time of fall will increase so horizontal distance covered will increase .

If h be the height from which the body is thrown , Vy be the vertical upward component of initial velocity

from the relation

s = ut + 1/2 at²

h = - Vy t  + 1/2 at²

As h increases , t will increase and therefore horizontal distance covered will increase. If the ball has only  horizontal velocity initially , Vy = 0

h = 1/2 gt²

t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} }

Horizontal distance covered  = t x Vx

= \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} } \times  V_x

From this expression also

Horizontal distance covered is proportional to \sqrt{h} .

The closest distance a book can be read from a pair of reading eyeglasses (Power = 1.55 dp) is 26.0 cm. What is the near distanc
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

The image distance is 20.0 cm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Power = 1.55 dp

Distance between book to eye = 26.0+3.00=29.0 cm

We need to calculate the focal length

Using formula of focal length

f = \dfrac{1}{P}

Put the value into the formula

f=\dfrac{1}{1.55}

f=0.645\ m

f=64.5\ cm

We need to calculate the image distance

Using lens formula

\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{u}+\dfrac{1}{v}

\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{f}-\dfrac{1}{-u}

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{64.5}-\dfrac{1}{-29}

\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{187}{3741}

v=20.0\ cm

Hence, The image distance is 20.0 cm.

What could be the possible answer to the question ?<br><br>thankyou ~​
Ganezh [65]

The value of the force, F₀, at equilibrium is equal to the horizontal

component of the tension in string 2.

Response:

  • The value of F₀ so that string 1 remains vertical is approximately <u>0.377·M·g</u>

<h3>How can the equilibrium of forces be used to find the value of F₀?</h3>

Given:

The weight of the rod = The sum of the vertical forces in the strings

Therefore;

M·g = T₂·cos(37°) + T₁

The weight of the rod is at the middle.

Taking moment about point (2) gives;

M·g × L = T₁ × 2·L

Therefore;

T_1 = \mathbf{\dfrac{M \cdot g}{2}}

Which gives;

M \cdot g = \mathbf{T_2 \cdot cos(37 ^{\circ})+ \dfrac{M \cdot g}{2}}

T_2 = \dfrac{M \cdot g - \dfrac{M \cdot g}{2}}{cos(37 ^{\circ})}  = \mathbf{\dfrac{M \cdot g}{2 \cdot cos(37 ^{\circ})}}}

F₀ = T₂·sin(37°)

Which gives;

F_0 = \dfrac{M \cdot g \cdot sin(37 ^{\circ})}{2 \cdot cos(37 ^{\circ})}} = \dfrac{M \cdot g \cdot tan(37 ^{\circ})}{2}  \approx  \mathbf{0.377  \cdot M \cdot g}

  • F₀ ≈ <u>0.377·M·g</u>
