<span>Wind is nature's way of balancing the temperature between hot and cold. Wind always flows from heat to cool. When night falls, the air cools. And since it gets cooler at night it reverses.</span>

A 5.75 mm high firefly sits on the axis of, and 11.3 cm in front of, the thin lens A, whose focal length is 5.77 cm . Behind len

weeeeeb [17]

Answer

given,

focal length of lens A = 5.77 cm

focal length of lens B= 27.9 cm

flies distance from mirror = 11.3 m

now,

Using lens formula

$\dfrac{1}{f} = \dfrac{1}{p} + \dfrac{1}{q}$

$\dfrac{1}{5.77} = \dfrac{1}{11.3} + \dfrac{1}{q}$

q =11.79 cm

image of lens A is object of lens B

distance of lens = 59.9 - 11.79 = 48.11

now, Again applying lens formula

$\dfrac{1}{f} = \dfrac{1}{p} + \dfrac{1}{q'}$

$\dfrac{1}{27.9} = \dfrac{1}{48.11} + \dfrac{1}{q'}$

q' =66.41 cm

hence, the image distance from the second lens is equal to q' =66.41 cm

On a frictionless horizontal air table, puck A (with mass 0.254 kg ) is moving toward puck B (with mass 0.367 kg ), which is ini

irinina [24]

Answer:

$v_a=0.8176 m/s$

$\Delta K=0.07969 J - 0.0849 J = -0.00521 J$

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of linear momentum, the total momentum of both pucks won't be changed regardless of their interaction if no external forces are acting on the system.

Being $m_a$ and $m_b$ the masses of pucks a and b respectively, the initial momentum of the system is

$M_1=m_av_a+m_bv_b$

Since b is initially at rest

$M_1=m_av_a$

After the collision and being $v'_a$ and $v'_b$ the respective velocities, the total momentum is

$M_2=m_av'_a+m_bv'_b$

Both momentums are equal, thus

$m_av_a=m_av'_a+m_bv'_b$

Solving for $v_a$

$v_a=\frac{m_av'_a+m_bv'_b}{m_a}$

$v_a=\frac{0.254Kg\times (-0.123 m/s)+0.367Kg (0.651m/s)}{0.254Kg}$

$v_a=0.8176 m/s$

The initial kinetic energy can be found as (provided puck b is at rest)

$K_1=\frac{1}{2}m_av_a^2$

$K_1=\frac{1}{2}(0.254Kg) (0.8176m/s)^2=0.0849 J$

The final kinetic energy is

$K_2=\frac{1}{2}m_av_a'^2+\frac{1}{2}m_bv_b'^2$

$K_2=\frac{1}{2}0.254Kg (-0.123m/s)^2+\frac{1}{2}0.367Kg (0.651m/s)^2=0.07969 J$

The change of kinetic energy is

$\Delta K=0.07969 J - 0.0849 J = -0.00521 J$

kiruha [24]

Answer:

C.) The same as one

Explanation:

Because the Ferris wheel has two bars at the side that keep it in place so it doesn't roll away. The Ferris wheel only moves in one place. If the ferris wheel did roll then you would have a greater than one. If it did roll it would be dangerous.
