Answer:
Distance: -30.0 cm; image is virtual, upright, enlarged
Explanation:
We can find the distance of the image using the lens equation:
where:
f = 15.0 cm is the focal length of the lens (positive for a converging lens)
p = 10.0 cm is the distance of the object from the lens
q is the distance of the image from the lens
Solving for q,
The negative sign tells us that the image is virtual (on the same side of the object, and it cannot be projected on a screen).
The magnification can be found as
The magnification gives us the ratio of the size of the image to that of the object: since here |M| = 3, this means that the image is 3 times larger than the object.
Also, the fact that the magnification is positive tells us that the image is upright.
Answer:
420J
Explanation:
Power is the time rate of change in energy. Power is the ratio of energy to time. The S.I unit of power is in watts.
Given that the flash lasts for 1/675 s, power output is 2.7 * 10⁵ W. Hence:
Power = Energy / time
Substituting:
2.7 * 10⁵ W = Energy / (1/675)
Energy = 2.7 * 10⁵ W * 1/675 = 400J
Therefore the energy emitted as light is 400J.
Since the conversion of electric energy to light is 95% efficient, hence the energy stored as electrical energy is:
Energy(capacitor) = 5% of 400J + 400J = 0.05*400 + 400
Energy(capacitor) = 420J
Answer:
C. Surface area
Explanation:
The rate of chemical reaction depends on various factors such as:
- concentration and pressure
- nature of reactants
- temperature
- surface area
- presence of catalyst, etc.
Effect of surface area of reactants: the rate of a chemical reaction can be increased by increasing the the area of contact of the reacting substances. This is especially important when one or more of the reactants are solids., because only the particles of the solid that are exposed are able to take part in the reaction at each instant of time. Therefore, the greater the surface area of the solid reactant particles the faster the reaction.
The surface area of solid reactants can be increased by grinding or pelletizing, thus allowing for a greater contact between the reacting particles,
The instance in which one of the solid reactants was treated in a coffee grinder before adding to the reaction container is one way of increasing the surface area of a reactant.
