The girl makes a microscope with a 3.0 cm focal length objective and a 5.0 cm eyepiece. The microscope tube length is 10 cm. Use
saul85 [17]

To solve this problem we will use the concepts related to Magnification. Magnification is the process of enlarging the apparent size, not physical size, of something. This enlargement is quantified by a calculated number also called "magnification".

The overall magnification of microscope is

M = \frac{Nl}{f_ef_0}

Where

N = Near point

l = distance between the object lens and eye lens

f_0= Focal length

f_e= Focal of eyepiece

Given that the minimum distance at which the eye is able to focus is about 25cm we have that N = 25cm

Replacing,

M = \frac{25*10}{3*5}

M = 16.67\approx 17\\

Therefore the correct answer is C.

Starting at (0,0) an object travels 36 meters north and then it covers 20 meters east. What is
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Using the pythagoras theorem, the displacement is expressed as;

d² = x²+y²

y = 36m (north)

x = 20m east

Substitute;

d² = 36²+20²

d² = 1296+400

d² = 1696

d = √1696

d = 41.18m

For the direction;

theta = tan^-1(y/x)

theta = tan^-1(36/20)

theta = tan^-1(1.8)

theta = 60.95°

Hence the magnitude is 41.18m and the direction is 60.95°

Since all objects are ‘weightless’ for an astronaut in orbit, is it possible for astronauts to tell whether an object is heavy o
ivanzaharov [21]
W=gm
where g - gravitation 
m - mass
w - weight
as gravitation equals to zero, multiplying by 0 gives W=0
It is not possible to tell whether and object is heavy or light

How much energy is needed to melt 5 g of ice? The specific latent heat of melting for water is 334000 J/kg.
Katen [24]

Answer:

The needed energy to melt of ice is 1670 J.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of ice = 5 g

Specific latent heat = 334000 J/kg

We need to calculate the energy

Using formula of energy

Q=mL

Where, m = mass

L = latent heat

Put the value into the formula

Q=5\times10^{-3}\times334000

Q=1670\ J

Hence, The needed energy to melt of ice is 1670 J.

A 75.0-kg person climbs stairs, gaining 2.50 m in height. Find the work done to accomplish this task.
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

W=1837.5J

Explanation:

A force exerts work when there is a displacement of its point of application in the direction of that force. Therefore, the work done by a system is defined as the inner product between the applied force and the displacement:

W=\vec{F}\cdot \vec{d}\\W=Fcos\theta d

In this case, we have:

F=mg\\h=dcos\theta

So, replacing this:

W=mgh\\W=75kg*9.8\frac{m}{s^2}*2.5m\\W=1837.5J
