A 7.5 cm tall Aragorn action figure is placed 12.4 cm in front of a double convex lens. If the image of Aragorn is located 7.5 from the lens, what is the focal length of the lens?

Answers

Answer:

f = 4.67 cm

Explanation:

Here, we can use the thin lens formula, as follows:

[tex]\frac{1}{f}= \frac{1}{p}+ \frac{1}{q}\\\\[/tex]

where,

f = focal length of lens = ?

p = distance of object from lens = 12.4 cm

q = distance of image from lens = 7.5 cm

Therefore,

[tex]\frac{1}{f} =\frac{1}{12.4\ cm} +\frac{1}{7.5\ cm}\\\\\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{4.67\ cm}[/tex]

f = 4.67 cm

A 400 kg satellite is in a circular orbit at an altitude of 500 km above the Earth's surface. Because of air friction, the satellite eventually falls to the Earth's surface, where it hits the ground with a speed of 1.60 km/s. How much energy was transformed into internal energy by means of air friction

Answers

Answer:

E = 1.45 x 10⁹ J = 1.45 GJ

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of energy:

Potential Energy Lost by Satellite = Kinetic Energy + Internal Energy

[tex]mgh = \frac{1}{2} mv^2 + E\\\\E = mgh - \frac{1}{2} mv^2[/tex]

where,

E = Internal Energy = ?

m = mass = 400 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h = height = 500 km = 500000 m

v = speed on ground = 1.6 km/s = 1600 m/s

Therefore,

[tex]E = (400\ kg)(9.81\ m/s^2)(500000\ m)-\frac{1}{2} (400\ kg)(1600\ m/s)^2\\E = 1.962\ x\ 10^9\ J - 0.512\ x\ 10^9\ J[/tex]

E = 1.45 x 10⁹ J = 1.45 GJ

An observer views four identical objects that are traveling at speeds close to
the speed of light. Can their lengths be used to rank the objects according to
their speeds?

Answers

Answer:

D

Explanation:

yes. The shortest object is traveling the fastest.

No,their lengths be used to rank the objects according to their speeds. Because the length of the object is depended on the frame of reference of the observer. Option A is correct.

What is frame of reference?

A frame of reference is a mathematical and physical coordinate system whose origin, direction, and scale are given by a collection of reference points.

Because the length of each item is determined by the observer's frame of reference, If an observer is stationary yet traveling at near light speed, he will feel length contraction.

Otherwise, the length of the items should not alter for everyday pace.A spectator sees four identical objects flying at almost the speed of light.

No,their lengths be used to rank the objects according to their speeds. Because the length of the object is depended on the frame of reference of the observer.

Hence,option A is correct.

The first law of thermodynamics (which states that energy is conserved) does not specify the direction in which thermodynamic processes in nature can spontaneously occur.

a. True
b. False

Answers

Answer:

a. True

Explanation:

The law of conservation of Energy states that energy cannot be destroyed but can only be converted or transformed from one form to another. Therefore, the sum of the initial kinetic energy and potential energy is equal to the sum of the final kinetic energy and potential energy.

Mathematically, it is given by the formula;

Ki + Ui = Kf + Uf .......equation 1

Where;

Ki and Kf are the initial and final kinetic energy respectively.

Ui and Uf are the initial and final potential energy respectively.

The First Law of Thermodynamics is another way to describe the Law of Conservation of Energy. Typically, the First Law of Thermodynamics states that the change of internal energy of a system is equal to the sum of external work and heat spent on the system.

Mathematically, the First Law of Thermodynamics is given by the formula;

ΔU = Q − W

Where;

ΔU represents the change in internal energy of a system.

Q represents the net heat transfer in and out of the system.

W represents the sum of work (net work) done on or by the system.

Hence, the direction in which any thermodynamic process in nature can spontaneously occur isn't stated by the First Law of Thermodynamics.

You are studying a population of flowering plants for several years.

Which of the following graph descriptions could accurately present your data?
a) With seeds in the current year on the y-axis and seeds in the previous year on the x-axis, you would see a line that increased from left to right
b) With survivorship on the y-axis and number of seeds produced on the x-axis, you would see a line that decreased left to right.
c) With leaf area on the y-axis and number of seeds produced on the x-axis, you would see a line that increased left to right
d) With survivorship on the y-axis and number of seeds produced on the x-axis, you would see a line that increased left to right.
e) With seeds in the current year on the y-axis and seeds in the previous year on the x-axis, you would see a line that decreased from left to right

Answers

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

The graph for this problem must depict the following ""Increased allocation of resources to reproduction relative to growth diminished future fecundity."

Hence, the survivor ship must be on the Y axis and the resources on the X axis.

Here the resources include the number of seeds produced.

hence, the higher is the number of seeds (resource), the lower is the survivorship (future fecundity)

Hence, option A is correct

f = 1.32×10^4 N

Explanation:

We can use the work-energy theorem to find the work done by the braking force f:

W = ∆KE + ∆PE

= (KEf - KEi) + (PEf - PEi)

= [(1/2)mvf^2 - (1/2)mvi^2] + (mhf - mghi)

At the bottom of the slope, vf = 0 and hf = 0 and hi = dsin10° (d = braking distance) so work W becomes

W = -[(1/2)mvi^2 + mgdsin10°]

= -m[(1/2)vi^2 + gdsin10°]

= -(2320kg)[(1/2)(13.4m/s)^2 + (9.8 m/s^2)(22.5m)sin10]

= -2.97×10^5 J

Since W = fd, where f is the braking force, we can now solve for f:

f = W/d = (-2.97×10^5 J)/(22.5 m)

= -1.32×10^4 N

Note: the negative sign means that it is a dissipative force.

Average braking force is 1.32×10^4 N.

What is force?

A force in physics is an effect that has the power to alter an object's motion. An object with mass can change its velocity, or accelerate, as a result of a force. An obvious way to describe force is as a push or a pull. A force is a vector quantity since it has both magnitude and direction.

We can use the work-energy theorem to find the work done by the braking force f:

W = ∆KE + ∆PE

   = (KEf - KEi) + (PEf - PEi)

   = [(1/2)mvf^2 - (1/2)mvi^2] + (mhf - mghi)

At the bottom of the slope, vf = 0 and hf = 0 and hi = dsin10° (d = braking distance) so work W becomes

W = -[(1/2)mvi^2 + mgdsin10°]

= -2.97×10^5 J

Since W = fd, where f is the braking force, we can now solve for f:

f = W/d = (-2.97×10^5 J)/(22.5 m)

Answers

Answer:

False.

Explanation:

The voltage of a disconnected charged capacitor decreases when the plates are brought closer together because the capacitance is inversely proportional to the area. If the area between plates decreases, its capacitance increases and vice versa. There is direct relationship between voltage of a disconnected charged capacitor and plates. If the distance between plates decreases, the voltage of a disconnected charged capacitor is also decreases while on the other hand, if the distance between plates increases, the voltage of a disconnected charged capacitor is also increases.

3) A 30 kg child slides freely across a "Slip and Slide" on LEVEL GROUND. While the child slides, the force applied to keep them sliding is 0 N. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.02. What is the acceleration experienced by the child?

Answers

Answer:

a = 0.1962 m/s^2

Explanation:

The magnitude of kinetic friction exerted is given by

[tex]F_k=\mu_kN[/tex]

Where, μ_k= coefficient of kinetic friction= 0.02 and N = reaction force = mg

Where m= mass = 30 Kg and, g is acceleration due to gravity =9.81 m/s^2

F_k=0.02×30×9.81 =5.886 N

Now, since, there is no applied force this kinetic friction force will cause acceleration of the child

⇒ ma = F_k

here, a is the acceleration

⇒30a = 5.886

⇒ a = 0.1962 m/s^2

A 10- kg ball starting from rest rolls down a 5 m tall smooth hill from one person to another person who is standing at the bottom of the hill with a big spring whose constant is 100 N/m. How far does the spring compress in order to stop the ball

Answers

Answer: 3.13 m

Explanation:

Given

mas of the ball is m=10 kg

The ball rolls down a vertical distance of 5 m

Spring constant of spring is [tex]k=100\ N/m[/tex]

Here, the potential energy of the ball converted into kinetic energy which in turn converts into elastic potential energy

[tex]\Rightarrow mgh=\frac{1}{2}kx^2\quad [\text{x=compression in the spring}]\\\\\Rightarrow 10\times 9.8\times 5=\frac{1}{2}\cdot 100\cdot x^2\\\Rightarrow x=\sqrt{9.8}\\\Rightarrow x=3.13\ m[/tex]

Thus, the spring compresses by 3.13 m.

a football player starts from rest and speeds up to a final velocity of 12 m/s. the speeding up takes a total of 6 seconds. what is the football players acceleration

Answers

Answer:

2 m/s²

Explanation:

Answers

Answer:

M = 1.90 Kg

Explanation:

Given data: mass = 2.5 Kg

radius R = 0.8 m

angular velocity ω = 1.5 rad/s

Angular momentum L =0.5×Iω^2

Where, I  is the moment of inertia of the spinning disc.

I = 0.5MR^2

I = 0.5×2.5×0.8^2

I = 0.8 Kg/m^2

Then L = 0.5×0.8×1.5^2 = 0.8×2.25 = 0.9 Kg-m^2/sec

Let unknown mass be M

New mass of disc = (2.5+M) Kg, R = 0.8 m

New I = 0.5(2.5+M)(0.8)^2

Since, angular momentum is conserved

Angular momentum before = angular momentum after

0.5×0.5(2.5+M)(0.8)^2×(1.13)^2 = 0.9

Solving for M we get

0.204304(2.5+M)=0.9

M = 1.90 Kg
