Answer:

beam of light converges to a point A. A lens is placed in the path of the convergent beam 12 cm from P.

To find the point at which the beam converge if the lens is (a) a convex lens of focal length 20 cm, (b) a concave lens of focal length 16 cm

Solution:

As per the given criteria,

the the object is virtual and the image is real (as the lens is placed in the path of the convergent beam)

(a) lens is a convex lens with

focal length, f=20cm

object distance, u=12cm

applying the lens formula, we get

f

⟹v=7.5cm

Hence the image formed is real, at 7.5cm from the lens on its right side.

(b) lens is a concave lens with

focal length, f=−16cm

object distance, 12cm

applying the lens formula, we get

f

1

=

v

−

u

⟹

v

−3+4

⟹v=48m

Hence the image formed is real, at 48 cm from the lens on the right side.

Lelechka [254]

Answer:

1 joule = 0.737 foot-pound

Joule is the unit of work.

1 J = 1 N·m

In SI units

1 J = 1 kg· m/s²

0.737 foot-pound is the amount of work to raise 0.737 pounds one foot or raising one pound to 0.737 ft.

A racquetball with a mass of 42 g is moving with a horizontal speed of 7 m/s to the right (+x direction). It hits the wall of th
zheka24 [161]

The magnitude of the racquetball's change in momentum is 0.59 kgm/s approximately.

Given that a racquetball with a mass of 42 g is moving with a horizontal speed of 7 m/s to the right (+x direction).

mass m  = 42g = 42/1000 = 0.042kg

initial velocity before collision u = 7 m/s

It hits the wall of the court and rebounds to the hitter with a horizontal speed of 7m/s to the left (-x direction). That is,

velocity after collision v = 7 m/s

To calculate the magnitude of the racquetball's change in momentum, we will use the formula below

Change in momentum = Mv - Mu

Since momentum is a vector quantity, we will consider the direction.

Change in momentum = 0.042 x 7 - ( 0.042 x - 7)

Change in momentum = 0.294 + 0.294

Change in momentum = 0.588 kgm/s

Therefore, the magnitude of the racquetball's change in momentum is 0.59 kgm/s approximately.

A hydrogen fuel cell supplies power for a small motor. the fuel cell delivers a current of 0.5 a and a voltage of 0.43 v. what i
gogolik [260]
We want to know what is the power supplied by the power cell if the current I=0.5 A and the voltage V=0.43 V. The equation for power P is P= I*V, so:

P=I*V=0.5*0.43=0.215 W

So the correct answer is that the power cell is supplying the motor with P=0.215 W of power.

An astronaut on Earth notes that in her soft drink an ice cube floats with 9/10 of its volume submerged. If she were instead in
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

B) with 9/10 submerged

Explanation:

m = mass of ice cube

\rho = density of soft drink

V = Volume of soft drink displaced

ice cube floats in the soft drink when the force of buoyancy on it balances its weight. Force of buoyancy acting on the cube in upward direction is same as the weight of the soft drink displaced. hence we can write

weight of ice cube = weight of soft drink displaced

mg = \rho V g

m = \rho V

we see that the acceleration due to gravity cancel out both side and hence it does affect as astronaut is on earth on in a lunar module.

Nina [5.8K]

It's important to know that diffraction gratings can be identified by the number of lines they have per centimeter. Often, more lines per centimeter is more useful because the images separation is greater when this happens. That is, the distance between lines increases.

<h2>Therefore, the answer is 2.</h2>
