Explain why the focal point of a diverging lens is called a virtual focal point.

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.

Describe how electricity flows through a simple closed circuit.
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

Electrons are drawn from one end of the battery to the other. Connecting two of those ends allows an electric current to flow between them. Wires make a path through that current can flow from one end of a battery to the other end, which would be considered as: The north and east side

A Ping-Pong ball has a mass of 2.3 g and a terminal speed of 9.3 m/s. The drag force is of the form bv2 What is the value of b?
Fed [463]

Answer:

The value is  b  =  0.00026 \ kg / m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The mass of the  Ping-Pong is  m  =  2.3 \  g = 0.0023 \  kg

    The terminal  speed is  v  =  9.3 \  m/s

    The drag force is  bv^2

Generally the resultant force on the Ping- Pong is mathematically represented as

      F =  mg  -  bv^2

when  terminal velocity is  attained  , the resultant force is zero  so

      0 =  mg  -  bv^2

=>   b  =  \frac{m *  g}{v^2}

=>    b  =  \frac{0.0023 *  9.8}{ 9.3 ^2}

=>    b  =  0.00026 \ kg / m

An object is taken from an oven at 350o F and left to cool in a room at 70o F. If the temperature fell to 250o F in one hour, wh
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

117.83° F

Explanation:

Using Newton's Law of Cooling which can be expressed as:

\dfrac{dT}{dt}= k(T-T_1)

The differential equation can be computed as:

\dfrac{dT}{dt}= k(T-70)

\dfrac{dT}{(T-70)}= kdt

\int \dfrac{dT}{(T-70)}= \int kdt

In|T-70| = kt +C

T- 70 = e^{kt+C} \\ \\ T = 70+e^{kt+C} \\ \\ T = 70 + C_1e^{kt}  --- (1)

where;

C_1 = e^C

At the initial condition, T(0)= 350

350 = 70 C_1^{k*0}

350 -70 = C_1

280 = C_1

replacing C_1= 280 into (1)

Hence, the differential equation becomes:

T(t) = 70 + 280 e^{kt}

when;

time (t) = 1 hour

T(1) = 250

Since;

250 = 70 + 280 e^{k*1}

180 = 280e^k \\ \\ \dfrac{180}{280}= e^k

k = In (\dfrac{180}{280})

k = -0.4418

Therefore;

T(t) = 70 + 280e^{(-0.4418)}t

After 4 hours, the temperature is:

T(t) = 70 + 280e^{(-0.4418)}4

T(4) = 117.83° F
