A wave is basically propagation of disturbances—that is, deviations from a state of rest or equilibrium—from place to place in a regular and organized way. Most familiar are surface waves on water, but both sound and light travel as wavelike disturbances, and the motion of all subatomic particles exhibits wavelike properties.
A convergent meniscus lens is a lens that is composed of two spherical surfaces, like the on shown next:
The imaginary line that runs through the middle of the lens is the "symmetry axis".
In this type of lenses incident parallel beams of light converge in one point, as follows:
And thus we get the diagram.
Answer:
The magnitude of the horizontal displacement of the rock is 7.39 m/s.
Explanation:
Given that,
Initial speed = 11.5 m/s
Angle = 50.0
Height = 30.0 m
We need to calculate the horizontal displacement of the rock
Using formula of horizontal component
Put the value into the formula
Hence, The magnitude of the horizontal displacement of the rock is 7.39 m/s.
Answer:
29.2 ft/s
Explanation:
The distance of the light's projection on the wall
y = 13 tan θ
where θ is the light's angle from perpendicular to the wall.
The light completes one rotation every 3 seconds, that is, 2π in 3 seconds,
Angular speed = w = (2π/3)
w = (θ/t)
θ = wt = (2πt/3)
(dθ/dt) = (2π/3)
y = 13 tan θ
(dy/dt) = 13 sec² θ (dθ/dt)
(dy/dt) = 13 sec² θ (2π/3)
(dy/dt) = (26π/3) sec² θ
when θ = 15°
(dy/dt) = (26π/3) sec² (15°)
(dy/dt) = 29.2 ft/s
