Answer: 11.1cm

Explanation:

Object distance (u) = 32cm

Image distance(v) = 17cm

Focal length(f) =?

Lens formular:

1/f = 1/u + 1/v

1/f = 1/32 + 1/17

Taking the L. C. M of 17 and 32

1/f = (17 + 32) / 544

1/f = 49/544

Taking the reciprocal

f = 544/49

f = 11.1 cm

Therefore, Focal length of the lens is 11.1cm

Why a small car can stop easier than an 18 wheeler while traveling at 70 mph down the interstate?
almond37 [142]
Smaller cars have less momentum than bigger cars. What’s in motion stays in motion but objects with more momentum (can be from weight or from speed but in this case it’s about weight) tend to stay in motion longer.

A person looking out the window of a stationary train notices that raindrops are falling vertically down at a speed of 3.84 m/s
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

the train is moving at the speed of v = 1.79 m/s

Explanation:

given,

rain drop is falling vertically down with the speed of  = 3.84 m/s

angle of the rain drop = 25°                      

tan θ = \dfrac{v}{u}                      

tan 25° = \dfrac{v}{3.84}                      

v =3.84 × tan 25°                      

v = 1.79 m/s                  

hence, the train is moving at the speed of v = 1.79 m/s

Where would you except to find the center of gravity of a plastic ruler
VARVARA [1.3K]
You would expect to find the center of gravity in a ruler in the middle because if you were to cut a ruler in half, depending on the center of gravity, you would have two equal pieces, which mean there is equal weight, meaning the middle is the center of gravity
