    Does Light Focus When Passing Through Converging and Diverging Lenses?

    Homework Statement A converging lens has a focal length f, and a diverging lens has a focal length –f, which has the same magnitude as the converging lens. They are separated by a distance D which is greater than f, as shown. Parallel light enters from the left. Will the light be brought...

    Bowling Question - Rotational Motion

    Homework Statement A uniform, spherical bowling ball of mass m and radius R is projected horizontally along the floor at an initial velocity v0 = 6.00 m/s. The ball is not rotating initially, so w0 = 0. It picks up rotation due to (kinetic) friction as it initially slips along the floor...

It just says "Discuss and conclude", so I just wanted to check my data and stuff. The second question is an extension of the first, still with methanol, and the question...

    Simple Distillation Homework: Methanol, Pentanol, & Azeotrope

    Homework Statement So I did a simple distillation lab and discovered that my unknown was methanol (boiling point was around 65). But, I just wanted to check something: since the alcohol was impure, shouldn't the boiling point range of the unknown be above pure methanol's boiling point and...
