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.

Suppose a plot of inverse wavelength vs frequency has slope equal to 0.119, what is the speed of sound traveling in the tube to

strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

8.40 m/s

Explanation:

Slope of the plot is 0.119

Slope of a plot is given by the change in y direction divided by the change in x direction

Here, the y axis represents inverse wavelength and the x axis represents frequency.

f = Frequency (Hz, assumed)

v = Phase velocity (m/s, assumed)

λ = Wavelength (m, assumed)

So, slope

$m=\frac{\frac{1}{\lambda}}{f}$

Now,

$\lambda=\frac{v}{f}\\\Rightarrow \lambda^{-1}=\frac{f}{v}$

$\\\Rightarrow m=\frac{\frac{f}{v}}{f}\\\Rightarrow 0.119=\frac{1}{v}\\\Rightarrow v=\frac{1}{0.119}\\\Rightarrow v=8.40\ m/s$

The speed of sound travelling in the tube is 8.40 m/s

g A bowling ball with a mass of 3.86 kg and a radius of 0.161 m starts from rest at a height of 2.5 m and rolls down a 48.4 o sl

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

$v=1.5m/s$

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy gets transformed into translational and rotational kinetic energy, so we can write $mgh=\frac{mv^2}{2}+\frac{I\omega^2}{2}$ . Since $v=r\omega$ (the ball rolls without slipping) and for a solid sphere $I=\frac{2mr^2}{5}$ , we have:
