Answer:

3.4 x 10⁴ m/s

Explanation:

Consider the circular motion of the electron

B = magnetic field = 80 x 10⁻⁶ T

m = mass of electron = 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ kg

v  = radial speed

r = radius of circular path = 2 mm = 0.002 m

q = magnitude of charge on electron = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

For the circular motion of electron

qBr = mv

(1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹) (80 x 10⁻⁶) (0.002) = (9.1 x 10⁻³¹) v

v = 2.8 x 10⁴ m/s

Consider the linear motion of the electron :

v' = linear speed

x = horizontal distance traveled = 9 mm = 0.009 m

t = time taken = \frac{2\pi m}{qB} = \frac{2\pi (9.1\times 10^{-31})}{(1.6\times 10^{^{-19}})(80\times 10^{-6})} = 4.5 x 10⁻⁷ sec

using the equation

x = v' t

0.009 = v' (4.5 x 10⁻⁷)

v' = 20000 m/s

v' = 2 x 10⁴ m/s

Speed is given as

V = sqrt(v² + v'²)

V = sqrt((2.8 x 10⁴)² + (2 x 10⁴)²)

v = 3.4 x 10⁴ m/s

What is the magnification of an astronomical telescope whose objective lens has a focal length of 74 cm and whose eyepiece has a
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

The magnification of an astronomical telescope is -30.83.

Explanation:

The expression for the magnification of an astronomical telescope is as follows;

M=-\frac{f_o}{f_e}

Here, M is the magnification of an astronomical telescope, f_e is the focal length of the eyepiece lens and f_o is the focal length of the objective lens.

It is given in the problem that an astronomical telescope having a focal length of objective lens 74 cm and whose eyepiece has a focal length of 2.4 cm.

Put f_o=74 cm and f_e=2.4 cm in the above expression.

M=-\frac{74}{2.4}

M=-30.83

Therefore, the magnification of an astronomical telescope is -30.83.
