A lens focuses light at a single point called the focal point. An illustration of a vertical converging lens with 5 parallel ray

s coming from the left and hitting the lens. They all bend towards and through a point labeled focal point on the other side of the lens. What is responsible for the light rays coming together at the focal point? absorption diffraction reflection refraction.

Answer:

refraction

Explanation:

When waves, including light, pass through two media with different densities, the waves bend at the transition between the two media due to differences in speed and wavelength. Convex lenses bend (refract) light and  concentrate it at one point called the focal point.

hope this helps

If feathers have a density of 0.500 lbs/ft^3, what volume in ft^3 will 8.0 lbs of feathers occupy?
OleMash [197]

Answer:

<em>The volume of the feathers in ft³ = 16 ft³</em>

Explanation:

Density: This can be defined as the ratio of mass of a body to the corresponding volume of that body. The S.I unit of Density is kg/m³

Mathematically it can be expressed as,

D = m/v ................................... Equation 1

making v the subject of the equation above,

v = m/D ............................. Equation 2

Where D = Density of the feathers, m = mass of the feathers, v = volume of the feathers.

Given: D = 0.50 lbs/ft³, m = 8.0 lbs.

Substituting into equation 2

v = 8/0.5

v = 16 ft³

<em>Thus the volume of the feathers in ft³ = 16 ft³</em>

An 81.5-kg man stands on a horizontal surface.
Elza [17]

Answer:

a)V= 0.0827 m³

b)P=181.11 x 10²  N/m²

Explanation:

Given that

m = 81.5 kg

Density ,ρ = 985 kg/m³

As we know that

Mass = Volume x Density

81.5 = V x 985

V= 0.0827 m³

The force exerted by weight = m g

 F= m g= 81.5 x 10 = 815 N      ( Take ,g= 10 m/s²)

Area ,A= 4.5 x 10⁻² m²

The Pressure P

P=\dfrac{F}{A}

P = \dfrac{815}{4.5\times 10^{-2}}\ N/m^2

P=181.11 x 10²  N/m²

Two satellites A and B orbit the Earth in the same plane. Their masses are 5 m and 7 m, respectively, and their radii 4 r and 7
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

The ratio of their orbital speeds are 5:4.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of A = 5 m

Mass of B = 7 m

Radius of A = 4 r

Radius of B = 7 r

The orbital speed of satellite A,

v_{A}=\sqrt{\dfrac{GM_{A}}{R_{A}}}......(I)

The orbital speed of satellite B,

v_{B}=\sqrt{\dfrac{GM_{B}}{R_{B}}}......(I)

We need to calculate the ratio of their orbital speeds

Using equation (I) and (II)

\dfrac{v_{A}}{v_{B}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{\dfrac{GM_{A}}{R_{A}}}{\dfrac{GM_{B}}{R_{B}}}}

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{v_{A}}{v_{B}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{G\times5m\times7r}{G\times7m\times4r}}

\dfrac{v_{A}}{v_{B}}=\dfrac{5}{4}

Hence, The ratio of their orbital speeds are 5:4.
