When would you use a compound microscope?

1 answer:

8 0

a compound microscope is used for viewing samples at high magnification<span> 40 - 1000x, which is achieved by the combined effect of two sets of lenses: the ocular lens in the eyepiece and the objective lenses close to the sample.</span>

What will be the ME of a machine that produces a 240 N work with a 300

Elden [556K]

Answer:

Efficiency = 80%

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Work output = 240 N

Work Input = 300 N

To find the mechanical efficiency of a machine;

$Efficiency = \frac {Out-put \; work}{In-put \; work} * 100$

Substituting into the equation, we have;

$Efficiency = \frac {240}{300} * 100$

$Efficiency = 0.8 * 100$

Efficiency = 80%

Therefore, the mechanical efficiency of the machine is 80 percent.

Under the influence of its drive force, a snowmobile is moving at a constant velocity along a horizontal patch of snow. When the

balandron [24]

Answer:

a) Δx = 11.6 m

b) t = 3.9 s

Explanation:

Since the snowmobile is moving at constant speed, and the drive force is 195 N, this means that thereis another force equal and opposite acting on it, according to Newton's 2nd Law, due to there is no acceleration present in the horizontal direction .
This force is just the force of kinetic friction, and is equal to -195 N (assuming the positive direction as the direction of the movement).
Once the drive force is shut off, the only force acting on the snowmobile remains the friction force.
According Newton's 2nd Law, this force is causing a negative acceleration (actually slowing down the snowmobile) that can be found as follows:

$a = \frac{F_{fr} }{m} = \frac{-195N}{128kg} = -1.5 m/s2 (1)$

Assuming the friction force keeps constant, we can use the following kinematic equation in order to find the distance traveled under this acceleration before coming to an stop, as follows:

$v_{f} ^{2} -v_{o} ^{2} = 2* a* \Delta x (2)$

Taking into account that vf=0, replacing by the given (v₀) and a from (1), we can solve for Δx, as follows:

$\Delta x =- \frac{v_{o}^{2}}{2*a} =- \frac{(5.90m/s)^{2}}{2*(-1.5m/s2)} = 11.6 m (3)$

We can find the time needed to come to an stop, applying the definition of acceleration, as follows:

$v_{f} = v_{o} + a*\Delta t (4)$

Since we have already said that the snowmobile comes to an stop, this means that vf = 0.
Replacing a and v₀ as we did in (3), we can solve for Δt as follows:

$\Delta t = \frac{-v_{o} }{a} = \frac{-5.9m/s}{-1.5m/s2} = 3.9 s (5)$

Why do most scientists follow a set order of steps when carrying out a scientific investigation?

eimsori [14]

<span>Scientists follow a set order of steps when carrying out a scientific investigation to make sure that the method, interpretation and results that they have obtained are repeatable and reliable. This kind of information can be truly said that their data is true and valid. </span>

The 26-kg sphere c is released from rest when θ = 0∘ and the tension in the spring is f = 100 n

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

You are given the mass of a sphere that is 26 kg sphere and it is released from rest when θ = 0°. You are also given the force of the spring that is F = 100 N. You are asked to find the tension of the spring. Imagine that the sphere is connected to a spring. The spring exerts a tension and the spring exerts gravitational pull. This will follow the second law of newton.

T - F = ma
T = ma + F
T = 26kg (9.81m/s²) + 100 N
T = 355.06 N
