When a parallel beam of light passes through a convex lens, the rays become farther from one another when the come out. This process of rays is called ''to diverge''. The concave lens makes rays of light diverge, so it is called diverging lens.

A girl throws a tennis ball upward with an initial velocity of 4 m/s. What is the maximum displacement of the ball?
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

0.82 m

Explanation:

The ball is in free fall - uniform accelerated motion with constant acceleration downward, a=g=-9.8 m/s^2 (acceleration of gravity). So we can use the following suvat equation to solve the problem:

v^2-u^2=2as

where

v is the final velocity

u = 4 m/s is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

s is the displacement

At the maximum displacement, v = 0 (the velocity becomes zero). Substituting and solving for s, we find:

s=-\frac{u^2}{2a}=-\frac{4^2}{2(-9.8)}=0.82 m
