1. The illuminance on a surface is 6 lux and the surface is 4 meters from the light source. What is the intensity of the source?

Crank

<u>Answer</u>

1) A. 96 Candelas

2) A. Both of these types of lenses have the ability to produce upright images.

3) C. 5 meters

<u>Explanation</u>

Q1

The formula for calculation the luminous intensity is;

Luminous intensity = illuminance × square radius

Lv = Ev × r²

= 6 × 4²

= 6 × 16

= 96 Candelabra

Q2

For converging lenses, an upright image is formed when the object is between the lens and the principal focus while a diverging lens always forms and upright image.

A. Both of these types of lenses have the ability to produce upright images.

Q3

Luminous intensity = illuminance × square radius

square radius = Luminous intensity/ illuminance

r² = 100/4

= 25

r = √25

= 5 m

For a freely falling object weighing 3 kg : A. what is the object's velocity 2 s after it's release. B. What is the kinetic ener

Fed [463]

A) 19.6 m/s (downward)

B) 576 J

C) 19.6 m

D) Velocity: not affected, kinetic energy: doubles, distance: not affected

Explanation:

A)

An object in free fall is acted upon one force only, which is the force of gravity.

Therefore, the motion of an object in free fall is a uniformly accelerated motion (constant acceleration). Therefore, we can find its velocity by applying the following suvat equation:

$v=u+at$

where:

v is the velocity at time t

u is the initial velocity

$a=g=9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration due to gravity

For the object in this problem, taking downward as positive direction, we have:

$u=0$ (the object starts from rest)

$a=9.8 m/s^2$

Therefore, the velocity after

t = 2 s

is:

$v=0+(9.8)(2)=19.6 m/s$ (downward)

B)

The kinetic energy of an object is the energy possessed by the object due to its motion.

It can be calculated using the equation:

$KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where

m is the mass of the object

v is the speed of the object

For the object in the problem, at t = 2 s, we have:

m = 3 kg (mass of the object)

v = 19.6 m/s (speed of the object)

Therefore, its kinetic energy is:

$KE=\frac{1}{2}(3)(19.6)^2=576 J$

C)

In order to find how far the object has fallen, we can use another suvat equation for uniformly accelerated motion:

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

where

s is the distance covered

u is the initial velocity

t is the time

a is the acceleration

For the object in free fall in this problem, we have:

u = 0 (it starts from rest)

$a=g=9.8 m/s^2$ (acceleration of gravity)

t = 2 s (time)

Therefore, the distance covered is

$s=0+\frac{1}{2}(9.8)(2)^2=19.6 m$

D)

Here the mass of the object has been doubled, so now it is

M = 6 kg

For part A) (final velocity of the object), we notice that the equation that we use to find the velocity does not depend at all on the mass of the object. This means that the value of the final velocity is not affected.

For part B) (kinetic energy), we notice that the kinetic energy depends on the mass, so in this case this value has changed.

The new kinetic energy is

$KE'=\frac{1}{2}Mv^2$

where

M = 6 kg is the new mass

v = 19.6 m/s is the speed

Substituting,

$KE'=\frac{1}{2}(6)(19.6)^2=1152 J$

And we see that this value is twice the value calculated in part A: so, the kinetic energy has doubled.

Finally, for part c) (distance covered), we see that its equation does not depend on the mass, therefore this value is not affected.
