Almost all telescopes have a circular mirror. The area of a circle is proportional to
where
is the radius of the circle, the constant of proportionality being
Therefore the area of 150 meter telescope would be
times bigger than the area of the smaller (10 meter) telescope.
Answer:
North
Explanation:
In an electromagnetic wave, the direction of the wave, the direction of the electric field and the direction of the magnetic field are all perpendicular to each other.
Therefore, we can find the direction of the magnetic field by using the right hand rule. We have:
- Index finger: direction of motion of the wave --> toward the center of Earth
- middle finger: direction of the electric field --> west
- thumb: direction of the magnetic field --> north
So, the magnetic field points north.
Answer:
refractive index of the unknown material is 1.33.
Explanation:
μ₁ = 1.21
incidence angle (i) = 41.9°
refraction angle (r) = 37.3°
Let us assume μ be the refractive index of the unknown material
according to snell's law of refraction.
μ₁ sin i = μ₂ sin r
1.21 × sin 41.9° = μ × sin 37.3°
μ = 1.33
hence the refractive index of the unknown material comes out top be 1.33
Explanation:
Magnet: It has two poles: South pole and North pole.
Magnetic field lines are stronger near the poles of the magnet.
Same poles repel each other. There is a magnetic force of repulsion between the same poles. North- North poles repel each other.
Unlike poles attract each other. There is magnetic force of attraction between the opposite poles. South- North poles attract each other.
Mono poles cannot exist.
From the given statements, the magnetic poles are described by:
A north pole must exist with a south pole.
Two south poles placed near each other will repel each other.
A north pole and a south pole placed near each other will attract each other.
Answer:
State A = piece of metal; State B = air
Explanation:
For the three main states of matter here's how it breaks down.
Solid - Cannot be compressed and retains its shape
Liquid - Cannot be compressed and does not retain its shape
Gas - Compressible and does not retain its shape.
Knowing this State A has to be solid. Only one of the options has A as a solid, so that's the answer. Worth knowing state B is a gas though, only one compressible, just like solid is the only one that retains its shape.
