Answer:
Explanation:
given,
refractive index of lens, n = 1.70
Radius of curvature of front surface. R₁ = 20 cm
Radius of curvature of the back surface, R₂ = 30 cm
focal length= ?
R₁ = +20 cm
R₂ = -30 cm
n = 1.70
the focal length of the lens is equal to 17.15 cm
By Newton's 2nd law of motion, F = ma, where F is force, m is mass, and a is acceleration.
Rearranging this equation to find acceleration would give us:
a = F/m
The horizontal force to the right is 10N, because the box is pushed to the right with a force of 20N, and the friction force of 10N opposes that, so:
20N - 10N = 10N
The mass is 2kg.
Putting these values into the equation gives us:
a = F/m
= 10/2
= 5ms^-2
The acceleration of the box is 5ms^-2
