The magnification of the ornament is 0.25

To calculate the magnification of the ornament, first, we need to find the image distance.

Formula:

  • 1/f = u⁻¹+v⁻¹.................... Equation 1

Where:

  • f = Focal length of the ornament
  • u = image distance
  • v = object distance.

make u the subject of the equation

  • u = fv/(f+v)................ Equation 2

From the question,

Given:

  • f = 8/2 = 4 cm
  • v = 12 cm

Substitute these values into equation 2

  • u = (12×4)/(12+4)
  • u = 48/16
  • u = 3 cm.

Finally, to get the magnification of the ornament, we use the formula below.

  • M = u/v.................. Equation 3

Where

  • M = magnification of the ornament.

Substitute these values above into equation 3

  • M = 3/12
  • M = 0.25.

Hence, The magnification of the ornament is 0.25

You place a point charge q = -4.00 nC a distance of 9.00 cm from an infinitely long, thin wire that has linear charge density 3.
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

F=6\times 10^{-7}\ N

Explanation:

Given:

  • quantity of point charge, q=-4\times 10^{-9}\ C
  • radial distance from the linear charge, r=0.09\ m
  • linear charge density, \lambda=3\times 10^{-9}\ C.m^{-1}

<u>We know that the electric field by the linear charge  is given as:</u>

E=\frac{\lambda}{2\pi.\epsilon_0.r}

E=\frac{1}{2}\times 9\times 10^9\times \frac{3\times10^{-9}}{0.09}

E=150\ N.C^{-1}

<u>Now the force on the given charge can be given as:</u>

F=E.q

F=150\times 4\times 10^{-9}

F=6\times 10^{-7}\ N

It is easier to lift the same load by using three pulley system than by using two-pulley system. why give reason.​
tresset_1 [31]
<h2>QUESTION:- It is easier to lift the same load by using three pulley system than by using two-pulley system.</h2>

<h2>ANSWER:- IN CASE OF IDEAL PULLEY SYSTEM</h2>

<h2>REASON:- </h2>

Logic behind is lies behind the mechanical advantage of the provided bt the Pulley system.

as if we calculate the mechanical advantage of the 2 Pulley system we will have the value 2

And if we will calculate the mechanical advantage of the 3 pulley system then we will get the value of 3

so due to extra mechanical advantage we feel it easy to move with 3 pulley system then 2 Pulley system
