List four characteristics of the image formed by a convex lens of focallength 20 cm when the object is placed in front of it at a distance of 10 cmfrom its optical centre. |
|
Answer» The image formed by the lens will have following characteristics. 1. The image will be virtual and erect. 2. It will be a magnified image; this means that the size of the image will be larger than the size of the object. 3. The position of the image will be at the same side where the object is placed. |

List four characteristics of the image formed by a convex lens of focallength 20 em when the object is placed in front of it at a distance of 10 cmfrom its optical centre. |
|
Answer» focal length of convex lens, f = +20cm object distance, u = -10cm use lens maker formula, 1/v - 1/u = 1/f or, 1/v - 1/-10 = 1/20 or, 1/v = 1/20 + 1/-10 or, 1/v = -1/20 => v = -20 here it is clearly shown that, image is formed at the same side of lens 20cm from the pole of lens. magnification, m = v/u = -20/-10 = 2, magnification is greater than 1, so size of image is greater than size of object. magnification is positive so, image is virtual and erect so, four characteristics of image : 1. image is virtual 2. image is erect. 3. image is enlarged 4. image is formed at the same side of lens. |

y drops a stone from the top of a building 100 m high. Another boy throws an iron ball 2seconds after the stone was dropped. Calculate the velocity with which the iron ball was thrownso that both the stone and the iron ball strike the ground at the same time. |
|
Answer» For the stone that is dropped, Initial velocity, u = 0 Distance covered, h = -100 m Acceleration due to gravity, g = -10 ms-2 h= ut+1/2gt^2-100= 0-1/2*10*t^2t= 4.5 secondSo, the stone reach the ground in 4.5 s after it is dropped. Now, at t = 0, the iron ball is thrown. At, t = 2 s, the stone is dropped. So, the stone reach the ground at t = 2 + 4.5 = 6.5 s Which means the iron ball was in air for 6.5 s. For the iron ball, Initial velocity is say, v Final velocity will be –v Acceleration due to gravity, g = -10 ms-2 Time of flight, t = 6.5 s -v= v+gt-v=v-10*6.5 2v= 65v= 32.5m/s So, the iron ball has to be thrown at a speed 32.5 m/s to make both the projectiles reach the ground at the same time.

Compare linear and nonlinear programming problems. |
|
Answer» The main difference between linear and nonlinear programming is that a linear programming helps to find the best solution from a set of parameters or requirements that have a linear relationship while a nonlinear programming helps to find the best solution from a set of parameters or requirements that have a nonlinear relationship. Linear programming is an important concept in optimization techniques in mathematics as it helps to find the most optimized solution to a given problem. On the other hand, nonlinear programming is the mathematical method of finding the optimized solution by considering constraints or objective functions that are nonlinear. |

what is the reason that in winters the upper surface of lake and pond,s freezes but inner water does not freezes |
|
Answer» To answer it, we first need to think aboutphases of matter: Gas, liquid, and solid.Matter is made up of particles calledatoms and molecules.If the particles are moving around very fast and they are spread far apart the matter is in thegas phase.If the particles are closer together and moving slowly around each other the matter is in aliquid phase. Finally, if the particles are locked in position and not hardly moving at all the matter is in asolid phase.Wateris the name of the liquid phase of H2O molecules, andiceis the name of the solid phase. The second thing we need to think about isdensity,which tells ushow tightly matter particles are packed together.Tightly packed matter is more dense than loosely packed matter. Also,less dense matter floats on top of more dense matter.So when you place ice cubes in your soft drink (which is mostly water) and your ice cubes float, you know thatice is less dense than water. This is a very special property of water. Almost every other type of matter gets less densewhen it changes phase from asolid to a liquid, butwater gets more densewhen it changes fromsolid (ice) to liquid. Why?Because ice is a crystal,which means it has a regular pattern with spaces in between molecules. The spaces in the crystal are larger than the spaces between molecules in the liquid.More space = less dense,soice is less dense than water.So now we understand why ice floats on top of water, buthow does this work on a lake?Imagine that it is the beginning of winter, and the temperature has just gotten below freezing.Air changes temperature faster than water-- this is why a swimming pool seems much warmer in the evening. The air cools down at night, but the pool water remains almost as hot as it was during the day. So although the air is freezing cold, the water isn't freezing yet. The water at the very top of the lake is in direct contact with the cold air, so it freezes first. And because ice is less dense than water, the sheet of ice doesn't sink. If the temperature stays very cold, the sheet of ice gets thicker, but the ice also acts as a barrier, or insulator, between the cold air and the warmer water underneath. The sheet of ice helps the rest of the water from becoming ice!The amazing fact that water freezes on the surface of a lake but not below it allows plants and fish to live through the winter in northern lakes and ponds. Imagine a lake without fish! So it is a good thing that H20 has the very strange property that its solid phase is less dense than its liquid phase. I think it's simple answer is due to the anamolus behavior of water |

prove that v=-u in plane mirror by mirror formula |
|
Answer» For plane mirror the usual mirror formula can be used usual mirror formula involves object distanceu image distancevand f-the focal length which is equal toR/2whereRis the radius of curvature. the form of equation is 1/u + 1/v = 1/f = 2/R the question is what is radius of curvature of a plane mirror? if one takes the radius of curvature R to be very large compared to u and v then the curved surfaces will be planes. so ifR is infinitely large then 2/R goes to zero. so the plane mirror formula reduces to 1/u + 1/v =0 meansu = -v so if object is placed in front of mirror , the image will be located behind the mirror. however as the formula is trivial so its not used. but when several media gets coupled to plane mirror this concept is used . |

How will you distinguish a plane mirror, a concave mirror and a convex mirror without touching them?fred ohgin comnrising hawk snake, paddy and mic |
|
Answer» To distinguish between a plane mirror, a concave mirror and a convex mirror without touching it, bring each mirror near to your face one by one and note the change in size of the image formed Case 1: Inplane mirror, if the object is upright, the image is also upright, of same size and does not change in size by moving the mirror towards or away from the face. Case 2: Inconcave mirror, if the object is upright, the image is also upright but magnified and increases in size by moving the mirror away from the face. Case 3: Inconvex mirror, if the object is upright, the image is also upright but diminished and decreases in size by moving the mirror away from the face. |

4. What is evaporation ? Explain it on the basisofmolecular motion |
|
Answer» Evaporation is a type of vaporization that occurs on the surface of a liquid as it changes into the gas phase after reaching its boiling point. The surrounding gas must not be saturated with the evaporating substance.As the faster-movingmoleculesescape, the remainingmoleculeshave lower average kinetic energy, and the temperature of the liquid decreases. This phenomenon is also called evaporative cooling. ... Three key parts toevaporation are heat, atmospheric pressure (determines the percent humidity), and air movement. |

shape.on what is cuapoocation of Explain it an the basis of molecularmotion ofods to the wobowe Stokat |
|
Answer» EXPLANATION OF EVAPORATION on the bases of molecular motion: Molecules of liquid have more spaces, the less molecular force of attraction and more K.E. than molecules of solids and can move throughout the liquid. While moving they can not escape the surface as they are being pulled inside by other molecules as there are no molecules above the surface. But when some molecules acquire sufficient K.E. (Threshold velocity), they overcome the ATTRACTIVE FORCES of other molecules and escape into the open space above the liquid. These escaping molecules from the vapor of the liquid and the process called Evaporation continues till all the liquid evaporates. evaporation is the process of obtaining salt from water when water is come up in the sun is the best answer evaporation is the process of obtaining salt from water when water is come up in the sun is the correct answer the correct answer is 76 the correct answer is 76 |
