When Sam presses the brake lever, a pair of rubber shoes  clamps onto the metal inner rim of the front and back wheels. As the brake shoes rub  against the wheels, friction is caused and  the kinetic energy possessed by the vehicle is converted into heat which slows down the vehicle.

Shadow and eclipses result from​
Basile [38]

\huge\mathsf{\red{\underline{\underline{Answer}}}}

{\green{\dashrightarrow}}When an opaque obstacle is placed between a source of light and a screen, a shadow of the obstacle is formed on the screen. The kind of shadow depends on the size of the source of light. In other words, the earth casts its shadow on the moon. The solar eclipse occurs when the moon comes between the sun and the earth.

In a compound microscope, the objective has a focal length of 1.0 cm, the eyepiece has a focal length of 2.0 cm, and the tube le
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

The  value  is   m \approx   310

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The  focal length of the objective is  f_o =  1.0 \ cm

    The  focal length of the eyepiece is  f_e  =  2.0 \  cm

    The  tube length is  L  =  25 \  cm

Generally the magnitude of the overall magnification is mathematically represented as

            m =  m_o  *  m_e

Where  m_o is the objective magnification which is mathematically represented as

        m_o  =  \frac{L}{f_o }

=>      m_o  =  \frac{25}{1 }

=>      m_o  =  25

m_e is the eyepiece magnification which is mathematically evaluated as

     m_e  =  \frac{L }{f_e }

     m_e  =  \frac{25 }{ 2}

      m_e  =  12.5 \  cm

So

    m =  25 * 12.5

     m \approx   310
