Answer:

A ray coming from the object parallel to the principle axis after reflection from the mirror would pass through focus or refracting through the lens would converge or appear to diverge from focus.
An incident ray passing through the focus would reflect/refract parallel to the principle axis.
A ray passing through the pole of the lens would transmit through it.

A ray which is incident at an angle to the mirror or lens would reflect or refract respectively and the angle of reflection or refraction would follow the laws of reflection or Snell's law of refraction respectively.

The important point is in image tracing:

1) The rays travelling from very far, meet at focus after interaction with the lens/mirror.
2) The rays travelling through focus are parallel to the principal axis.
3) The object must be kept facing the front part of the mirror.

A rectangular coil of dimensions 5.40cm x 8.50cm consists of25 turns of wire. The coil carries a current of 15.0 mA.

Kazeer [188]

Answer:

(a) Magnetic moment will be $17.212\times 10^{-4}A-m^2$

(b) Torque will be $6.024\times 10^{-4}N-m$

Explanation:

We have given dimension of the rectangular 5.4 cm × 8.5 cm

So area of the rectangular coil $A=5.4\times 8.5=45.9cm^2=45.9\times 10^{-4}m^2$

Current is given as $i=15mA=15\times 10^{-3}A$

Number of turns N = 25

(A) We know that magnetic moment is given by $magnetic\ moment=NiA=25\times 45.9\times 10^{-4}\times 15\times 10^{-3}=17.212\times 10^{-4}A-m^2$

(b) Magnetic field is given as B = 0.350 T

We know that torque is given by $\tau =BINA=0.350\times 15\times 10^{-3}\times 25\times 45.9\times 10^{-4}=6.024\times 10^{-4}N-m$

A 6.0 kg box slides down an inclined plane that makes an angle of 39° with the horizontal. If the coefficient of kinetic frictio

dlinn [17]

Answer:

a = 4.72 m/s²

Explanation:

given,

mass of the box (m)= 6 Kg

angle of inclination (θ) = 39°

coefficient of kinetic friction (μ) = 0.19

magnitude of acceleration = ?

box is sliding downward so,

F - f = m a

f is the friction force

m g sinθ - μ N = ma

m g sinθ - μ m g cos θ = ma

a = g sinθ - μ g cos θ

a = 9.8 x sin 39° - 0.19 x 9.8 x cos 39°

a = 4.72 m/s²

the magnitude of acceleration of the box down the slope is a = 4.72 m/s²

an input force of 50 Newtons is applied through a distance of 10 meters to machine with mechanical advantage of 3. If the work o

gladu [14]

The output of the machine is

(output work) = (output force) x (distance)

450 N-m = (output force) x (3 meters)

Divide each side
by 3 meters: Output force = (450 N-m) / (3 m)

= 150 newtons .

With all the information given about the output work, we don't need
to know anything about the input work, or even the fact that we're
dealing with a machine.

It's comforting, though, to look back and notice that the output work
(450 N-m) is not more than the input work (500 N-m). So everything
is nice and hunky-dory.
___________________________________

Well, my goodness !
I didn't even need to go through all of that.

Given:

-- The input force to the machine is 50 newtons.

-- The mechanical advantage of the machine is 3 .

That right there tells us that

-- The output force of the machine is 150 newtons.

We don't need any of the other given information.
