A plano concave lens is one that has a surface that curves inward, making the lens thinner at its center than at its edges. Its

effect on light is :_______.
a.) to make it appear as if incident parallel light is coming from a point close to the lens on the opposide side from the light source
b.) the diverge in incident beam of light
c.) to converge light to a focus
d.) to make it appear as if incident parallel light is coming from a point close to the lens on the same side as the light source

Answer:

b.) the diverge in incident beam of light

Explanation:

A lens refers to any refracting surface. The manner in which a lens is curved tells whether it is a concave(diverging) lens or a convex (converging) lens.

A convex lens is thicker at the center than at the edges. It makes light to converge at a point.

A concave lens is is thinner at the center than at the edges. It makes light to appear to diverge from a point, hence the answer above.

A cat with a mass of 4.50 kilograms sits on a ledge 0.800 meters above the ground. What is the potential energy of the cat? 346
Gennadij [26K]
This is a question about converting energy from one form to another. 

<span>While it is sitting on the ledge, it isn't moving, so at that point it doesn't have any kinetic energy. What it has is gravitational potential energy due to its height above the ground. </span>

<span>Just as it lands, it's at ground level, so it doesn't have any gravitational potential energy anymore. </span>

<span>The reason is that on the way down, it sped up, so all its original gravitational potential energy was turned into kinetic energy. </span>

<span>So if you can work out how much potential energy it had to start with, you will know that that is how much kinetic energy it ended up with just before it landed. </span>

<span>potential energy = m * g * h </span>
<span>where m is the mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity and h is the height </span>

potential energy = 4.45 * 9.81 * 0.800 = 35.3 J

A cyclist has a momentum of 771.9 kg m/s. if her mass is 93 kg what is the speed of the cyclist?
MrMuchimi
Take 771.9 Kg M/s  because that's how fast she is moving and divide it by 93 kg because that is her force pushing down

771.9/93= 8.3

Answer: A. 8.3 M/s

P.s I changed my answer on the last question you asked so change that.

An electronic balance shows the mass of a sample of sodium chloride to be 29.732 g. what is the uncertainty of the measurement
OLEGan [10]

The uncertainty of the measurement is 0.001 gm.

The uncertainty in the measurement of a physical quantity is given as how precisely we can measure that, in this case as we can see that the mass of the sodium chloride is precisely given as 29.732 gm, this means the electronic scale is precise to 0.001 gm and round of the values after that which means there is a uncertainty of 0.001 gm.

. A 1.50kg mass on a spring has a displacement as a function of time given by the equation: x(t) = (7.40cm)cos[(4.16s-1)t – 2.42
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

Solution:

we have given the equation of motion is x(t)=8sint [where t in seconds and x in centimeter]

Position, velocity and acceleration are all based on the equation of motion.

The equation represents the position.  The first derivative gives the velocity and the 2nd derivative gives the acceleration.

x(t)=8sint

x'(t)=8cost

x"(t)=-8sint

now at time t=2pi/3,

position, x(t)=8sin(2pi/3)=4*squart(3)cm.

velocity, x'(t)=8cos(2pi/3)==4cm/s

acceleration, x"(t)==8sin(2pi/3)=-4cm/s^2

so at present the direction is in y-axis.
