Which graph shows the relationship between temperature, X, and kinetic energy, Y?
2 answers:
Answer: see the graph attached (straight line, passing through the origin and positive slope).
Justification:
1) Kinetic energy and temperature are in direct proportion. That means:
i) Being kinetic energy y and temperature x: y α x
ii) That implies: y = kx,where k is the constant of proportionality.
iii) The graph is a line that passes through the origin and has positive slope k (k = y / x).
2) The proportional relationship between kinetic energy (KE) and temperature (T) is shown by the Boltzman law, which states:
Average KE = [3 / 2] KT, where K is Boltzman's constant, whose graph is of the form shown in the figure attached.

Answer:
a) Focal length of the lens is 8 cm which is a convex lens
b) 6 cm
c) The lens is a convex lens and produces a virtual image which is upright and two times larger than the object.
Explanation:
u = Object distance = 4 cm
v = Image distance = -8 cm
f = Focal length
Lens Equation
a) Focal length of the lens is 8 cm which is a convex lens
Magnification
b) Height of image is 2×3 = 6 cm
Since magnification is positive the image upright
c) The lens is a convex lens and produces a virtual image which is upright and two times larger than the object.
