Answer:

Magnification, m = 3

Explanation:

It is given that,

Focal length of the lens, f = 15 cm

Object distance, u = -10 cm

Lens formula :

$\dfrac{1}{v}-\dfrac{1}{u}=\dfrac{1}{f}$

v is image distance

$\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{f}+\dfrac{1}{u}\\\\\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{15}+\dfrac{1}{(-10)}\\\\v=-30\ cm$

Magnification,

$m=\dfrac{v}{u}\\\\m=\dfrac{-30}{10}\\\\m=3$

So, the magnification of the lens is 3.

A disk of mass m and radius r is initially held at rest just above a larger disk of mass M and radius R that is rotating at angu

Leto [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Moment of inertia of larger disk I₁ = 1/2 MR²

Moment of inertia of smaller disk I₂ = 1/2 m r ²

Initial angular velocity

We shall apply law of conservation of angular momentum .

initial total momentum = final angular momentum

I₁ X ωi = ( I₁ + I₂ )ωf

1/2 MR² x ωi = 1/2 ( m r² + MR² ) ωf

ωf = ωi / ( 1 + m r²/MR² )

The air in a 6.00 L tank has a pressure of 2.00 atm. What is the final pressure, in atmospheres, when the air is placed in tanks

ser-zykov [4K]

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial volume of tank, V = 6 L

Initial pressure, P = 2 atm

We need to find the final pressure when the air is placed in tanks that have the following volumes if there is no change in temperature and amount of gas:

(a) V' = 1 L

It is a case of Boyle's law. It says that volume is inversely proportional to the pressure at constant temperature. So,

$PV=P'V'\\\\P'=\dfrac{PV}{V'}\\\\P'=\dfrac{6\times 2}{1}\\\\P'=12\ atm$

(b) V' = 2500 mL

New pressure becomes :

$PV=P'V'\\\\P'=\dfrac{PV}{V'}\\\\P'=\dfrac{6\times 2}{2500\times 10^{-3}}\\\\P'=4.8\ atm$

New pressure becomes :

$PV=P'V'\\\\P'=\dfrac{PV}{V'}\\\\P'=\dfrac{6\times 2}{750\times 10^{-3}}\\\\P'=16\ atm$

(d) V' = 8 L

New pressure becomes :

$PV=P'V'\\\\P'=\dfrac{PV}{V'}\\\\P'=\dfrac{6\times 2}{8}\\\\P'=1.5\ atm$

Hence, this is the required solution.

Consider a bird that flies at an average speed of 10.7 m/sm/s and releases energy from its body fat reserves at an average rate

Wittaler [7]

Answer:

455165.278 m

Explanation:

P = Power = 3.7 W

v = Velocity = 10.7 m/s

Amount of fat = 4 g

1 gram of fat provides about 9.40 (food) Calories

Energy given by 4 g of fat

$E=4\times 9.4\times 4186\\\Rightarrow E=157393.6\ J$

Time required to burn the fat

$t=\dfrac{E}{P}\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{157393.6}{3.7}\\\Rightarrow t=42538.811\ s$

Distance traveled by the bird

$s=vt\\\Rightarrow s=10.7\times 42538.811\\\Rightarrow s=455165.2777\ m$

The bird will fly 455165.278 m
