If you want to catch the image formed by the lens, then the screen will have to be

perpendicular to the axis of the lens. That's kind of parallel to the lens ... the lens

doesn't actually have any 'plane' since its surfaces are curved.

Should a Voltmeter always be connected in a series with a component?

Voltmeter should be connected always in parallel to a circuit ANSWER : IT should be in parallel except when used to measure current. Then it should be placed in series across a shunt.

Why does a converging lens behave as a burning glass?

Convex lenses focus parallel light rays from distant sources such as the sun to a single point on the principal axis of the lens. This point is called the principal focus of the convex lens. A source such as the sun is producing enough energy to heat a substance if it is placed at the principal focus point.


Should an ammeter always be connected in parallel with a component?

No, an ammeter should never be placed in parallel with a component - it should always be placed in series, so that the current through the component is measured.If you place an ammeter in parallel with a component, you create a short circuit around the component. Depending on the rest of the circuit, you could damage the circuit, damage the ammeter, create a fire, etc. You certainly will affect the current through the component, and that is not what you want to accomplish.

If square rhombus and trapezoid are placed in a pile which figure should be separated based on parallel sides?

A rhombus is an equilateral quadrilateral. Every rhombus is a parallelogram, and a rhombus with right angles is a square. A trapezoida is four-sided figure with one pair of parallel sides.So if you placed a square and a rhombus in a pile, they are both parallelograms and would have parallel sides. You can put them together. The trapezoid only has one pair of parallel sides.


Is an ohmmeter connected in series or parallel?

You almost NEVER do. 1) The circuit should be off and/or disconnected when using an ohmmeter. 2) It should be in parallel with the component as far as the rest of the circuit is concerned, but alone in series with the device its measuring.


How is the formula for the area of a trapezoid related to the formula for a area of a parallelogram?

The formula for the area of a trapezoid is a combination of the formulas for the areas of a triangle and a rectangle. It can be seen as two congruent triangles placed together to form a parallelogram. So, the formula for the area of a parallelogram is a generalization of the formula for the area of a trapezoid.
