Question
Chapter 14, Problem 4RAT
To determine
The correct option for the statement is “A real image can be cast on a screen by a”.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 4RAT
The correct option for the statement is “A real image can be cast on a screen by a” is option (a).
Explanation of Solution
Image is formed by the intersection of the light rays when two or more light rays actually or really intersect, then the real image is formed on the screen. The rays only intersect when they have a converging nature. A convex lens can concentrate the light rays at a point, which is also known as a converging lens.
Diverging lens deviates the ray of light, so to get an image, rays are extended in the opposite direction where they virtually intersect each other, and the image obtained is virtual in nature.
Conclusion:
Therefore, the correct option for the statement is “A real image can be cast on a screen by a” is option (a).

- Race car driver is cruising down the street at a constant speed of 28.9 m/s (~65 mph; he has a “lead” foot) when the traffic light in front of him turns red. a) If the driver’s reaction time is 160 ms, how far does he and his car travel down the road from the instant he sees the light change to the instant he begins to slow down? b) If the driver’s combined reaction and movement time is 750 ms, how far do he and his car travel down the road from the instant he sees the light change to the instant he slams on her brakes and car begins to slow down? c) If the driver’s average rate of acceleration is -9.5 m/s2 as he slows down, how long does it take him to come to a stop (use information about his speed of 28.9 m/s but do NOT use his reaction and movement time in this computation)?
