The concave lens is a diverging lens, because it causes the light rays to bend away (diverge) from its axis. In this case, the lens has been shaped so that all light rays entering it parallel to its axis appear to originate from the same point, F, defined to be the focal point of a diverging lens.

How is silver, gold, and bronze different.
joja [24]

Answer:

Silver is a malleable and ductile metal having atomic number 47 and symbol Ag. Gold on the hand has atomic number 79 and symbol Au. It is also ductile and malleable. Both are soft and lustrous in nature. Both are transition metals.

Bronze is an alloy of majority of copper and some amount of tin.  Formation of alloy enhances the properties of the metal and its industrial use. Bronze is harder than copper and easily fusible and easy to cast. It is resists corrosion.

Silver and gold have different atomic numbers, different colors. Both are transition elements where as Bronze is an alloy.

A ball is thrown horizontally from a platform so that the initial height of the ball is 6.0 m above the level ground below. The
solniwko [45]
We can first obtain time of flight from vertical fall
Initial velocity U=0, d = 6 m, a = 9.8 m/s² 
d = ut + 1/2 at²
6.0 = 0 + (1/2 × 9.80 t²) 
t = √(12/9.8)
 = 1.106 sec
Horizontal velocity = Vh = Dh/t
  = 24.0 /1.106 s
  = 21.69 m/s
The ball was thrown at a speed of 21.69 m/s
