An engineer can increase the magnitude of the magnification of a compound microscope by
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

Magnification of Microscope is  

M = M_o \times M_e

Mo= Magnification of objective lens and

Me= magnification of the eyepiece.  

Both magnifications( of objective and eyepiece) are inversely proportional to the focal length.  

Magnification,  

M\ \alpha\ \dfrac{1}{f}

when the focal length is less magnification will be high and when the magnification is the low focal length of the microscope will be more.

Thus. Magnification will increase by decreasing the focal length.

The correct answer is Option B i.e. using shorter focal length

A block of mass 11.0 kg slides from rest down a frictionless 38.0° incline and is stopped by a strong spring with
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

11.72 mm

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy equals the potential energy of the spring hence

PE_{gravitational}=PE_{spring}

mgh=0.5kx^{2} where m is the mass of object, g is the acceleration due to gravity, h is the height, k is the spring constant and x is the extension of the spring

mgdsin\theta=0.5kx^{2} where \theta is the angle of inclination and d is the sliding distance

Making x the subject then

x=\sqrt {\frac {2mgdsin\theta}{k}}

Substituting the given values then

x=\sqrt{\frac {2\times 11\times 9.81\times 3\times sin 38}{2.9\times 10^{4}}}= 0.117240716\approx 11.72 mm

True or False. Atmosphere, lithosphere, and hydrosphere function together to create environments for the biosphere.
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Biosphere refer to regions of the earth(sphere) that supports life. It is made up of biotic and abiotic components. Its abiotic components are non-living components that support life and  is made up of the lithosphere (the earth crust,mantle) , atmosphere(area of gases and air which is  held by gravitational force) and the hydrosphere(all water bodies which includes ocean, sea, lakes, rivers etc).

If you were traveling 60 mph and not wearing a seatbelt and collided with a fixed object, how fast would you be traveling when y
Readme [11.4K]

Your speed when your car hits a fixed object is 60 mph.

The given parameters:

  • Your initial speed, v = 60 mph

<h3>What is relative velocity?</h3>

Relative velocity tells us how fast we are traveling from a fixed point or reference point.

  • When travel at 60 mph in a car, you are moving at the same rate with the car.
  • If you are not wearing a seat belt, when you hit a fixed object, you will move forward at the same rate as the car's speed.

Thus, we can conclude that your speed when your car hits a fixed object is 60 mph.
