Physics

Because it's the planet in our solar system with the shortest,
fastest orbit around the sun ... only 88 Earth days.

The people who named it didn't know that ... they still thought that
the sun and all the planets revolve around the Earth.  But they did
see it zip from one side of the sun to the other, faster than any other
planet ... the result of having the shortest, fastest orbit of any planet.

3. What is the potential energy of a 8 Newton book sitting on a shelf that is 12 meters high?​
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

P = 96 J

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight of the book, W = mg = 8 N

It is placed at a height of 12 m

We need to find the potential energy of the book. The potential energy of an object is given by the formula as follows :

E = mgh

mg = Weight

E=8\ N\times 12\ m\\E=96\ J

So, the potential energy of the book is 96 J.

A coin with a diameter 3.00 cm rolls up a 30.0 inclined plane. The coin starts out with an initial angular speed of 60.0 rad/s
sweet [91]

This question is in complete.The question is

A coin with a diameter 3.00 cm rolls up a 30.0° inclined plane. The coin starts out with an initial angular speed of 60.0 rad/s and rolls in a straight line without slipping. If the moment of inertia of the coin is(1/2) MR² , how far will the coin roll up the inclined plane (length along the ramp)? Hint: Conservation of mechanical energy.

Answer:

distance=0.124 m

Explanation:

mgh=mglSin\alpha =(1/2)Iw_{i}^{2}+(1/2)mv^{2}\\   v=wR\\Solve for L\\L=((1/2)(1/2)0.015^{2}*60^{2}+(1/2)(60*0.015^{2} ))/9.8Sin30\\   L=0.124m

A(n) ________ microscope keeps an object in focus when the objective lens is changed.
Anvisha [2.4K]

Parfocal is the term used to describe a microscope that maintains focus when the objective lenses are replaced.

<h3>What is the name of the objective lens ?</h3>

For observing minute features within a specimen sample, a high-powered objective lens, often known as a "high dry" lens, is perfect. You can see a very detailed image of the specimen on your slide thanks to the 400x total magnification that a high-power objective lens and a 10x eyepiece provide.

The four objective lenses on your microscope are for scanning (4x), low (10x), high (40x), and oil immersion (100x).

The first-stage lens used to create a picture from electrons leaving the specimen is referred to as the "objective lens." The objective lens is the most crucial component of the imaging system since the quality of the images is determined by how well it performs (resolution, contrast, etc.,).

Determine the magnitude of the electrostatic force on a 0.06000 C charged object when it is placed in an electric field of magni
joja [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Use the following equation:

E=\frac{q}{F} and solve for F:

F=\frac{q}{E} and filling in:

F=\frac{.0600}{1500}

F = 4.0 × 10^{-4 N
