Physics
1 answer:
-Dominant- [34]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Concave lens also called as diverging lens i.e. it diverges ray of light coming towards it.

Concave lens is thicker at the edges and thinner at the center.

Concave lens formed the virtual image of the object i.e. it cannot be trace on screen. This lens is used to treat the nearsightedness or myopia in which a person is unable to see the far object clearly.

A cyclist rides 6.2 km east, then 9.28 km in a direction 27.27 degrees west of north, then 7.99 km west. A. What is the magnitud
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

Explanation:

given,

cyclist ride  6.2 km east and then 9.28 km in the direction of 27.27° west of north and then 7.99 km west.

vertical component = 9.28 cos∅

                                = 9.28 cos 27.27°

                                = 8.24 km

horizontal axis component = 9.28 sin ∅

                                             = 9.28 sin 27.27°

                                             = 4.5 km

distance of the final point from the origin

                            = 7.99 -(6.2-4.5)

                            = 6.29 km

displacement

d = \sqrt{6.29^2+8.24^2}

d = 10.37 km

b) tan \theta = \dfrac{6.29}{8.24}

θ = 37.36°

A wave travels at 175 m/s along the x-axis.If the period of the periodic vibrations of the wave is 3.00 milliseconds,then what i
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:  

<h2>E) 52.5 cm</h2>

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

period T= 3 milliseconds= 0.003

velocity v= 175m/s

wave lenght λ=?

Step two:

we know that f=1/T

the expression relating period and wave lenght is

v=λ/T

λ=v*T

λ=175*0.002

λ=0.525m

to cm= 0.525*100

=52.5cm

The wavelength of the wave is E) 52.5 cm

Which of the following statements about comets is true? A. Comets rarely fall into an orbit around the Sun. They usually enter t
GREYUIT [131]
<h2>Right answer: Comets have very elliptical orbits that usually take them far beyond the orbit of Pluto, but also take them closer to the Sun than Earth</h2>

Comets are celestial bodies constituted by ice, dust and rocks that orbit around the Sun, after having been altered by the Oort cloud; following different trajectories that can be <u>highly eccentric elliptical</u><u> </u>(periodic trajectories), parabolic or hyperbolic.

One of the main characteristics of a comet is that it travels quite fast, on its way around the Sun and has a long tail. It should be noted that the tails of comets always go in the opposite direction to the Sun (due to the radiation pressure of sunlight).

Therefore, the correct option is C.

Why can work be thought of as the transfer of energy? Please help it's physics
deff fn [24]
That is because work requires energy. According to the law of conservation of energy, it cannot be created or destroyed. When doing work, energy change forms and gets transferred to the object until it is released.
for example, when you lift up an object and place it on a higher elevation, you transferred energy to it and gave it potential energy. The potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy when the object falls down, and if it hits a surface, the energy will scatter, vibrating the areas around it and producing sound.
Also, work= force X distance. The energy does not go away, but rather get changed into some other form of energy
