A geneticist looks through a microscope to determine the phenotype of a fruit fly. The microscope is set to an overall magnifica

tion of 400x with an objective lens that has a focal length of 0.40 cm. The distance between the eyepiece and objective lenses is 12 cm. 1) Find the focal length of the eyepiece lens assuming a near point of 25 cm (the closest an object can be and still be seen in focus). Do not neglect any values in your calculation. (Express your answer to two significant figures.)

Answer:

f_{e}  = 1.9 cm

Explanation:

The magnification of a microscope is the product of the magnification of the eyepiece by the magnifier with the objective

    M = M₀ m_{e}

Where M₀ is the magnification of the objective and  m_{e} is the magnification of the eyepiece.

The eyepiece is focused to the near vision point (d = 25 cm)

       m_{e} = 25 /  f_{e}

The objective is focused on the distances of the tube (L)

     M₀ = -L / f₀

Substituting

     M = - L/f₀    25/f_{e}  

1) Let's look for the focal length of the eyepiece (faith)

     f_{e}  = - L 25 / f₀ M

     M = 400X = -400

     f_{e}  = - 12 25 /0.40 (-400)

     f_{e}  = 1.875 cm

Let's approximate two significant figures

    f_{e}  = 1.9 cm

The horse on a carousel is 3.5m from the central axis.A. If the carousel rotates at 0.13 rev/s , how long does it take the horse
Kitty [74]

Answer:

a. 15.4 seconds

b. 0.455 m/s

Explanation:

a. The carousel rotates at 0.13 rev/s.

This means that it takes the carousel 1 sec to make 0.13 of an entire revolution.

This means that time it will take to make a complete revolution is:

1 / 0.13 = 7.7 seconds

Therefore, the time it will take to make 2 revolutions is:

2 * 7.7 = 15.4 seconds

b. Let us calculate the linear velocity. Angular velocity is given as:

\omega = v / r

where v = linear velocity and r = radius

The radius of the circle is 3.5 m and the angular velocity is 0.13 rev/s, therefore:

0.13 = v / 3.5

v = 3.5 * 0.13 = 0.455 m/s

Linear velocity is 0.455 m/s

Movies and TV shows sometimes portray a person being thrown backwards a sizable distance as a result of being struck by a bullet
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

 R = 4.24 x 10⁻⁴ m

Explanation:

given,

mass of the person = 60.3-kg

mass of the bullet = 10 gram = 0.01 Kg

velocity of bullet = 389 m/s

angle made with the horizontal = 45°

using conservation of momentum.

M v  + m u  = ( M + m ) V

60.3 x 0 + 0.01 x 389 = (60.3 + 0.01) V

V = \dfrac{3.89}{60.31}

V = \dfrac{3.89}{60.31}

V = 0.0645 m/s

for calculation of range

R = \dfrac{V^2sin 2 \theta}{g}

R = \dfrac{0.0645^2sin 2 (45^0)}{9.8}

     R = 4.24 x 10⁻⁴ m

the distance actor fall is  R = 4.24 x 10⁻⁴ m

Two samples of water are mixed together.
horrorfan [7]

Let the cold water go up x degrees.

Let the hot water go down 100 - x degrees.

The formula for heat exchange is m*c*delta t

Givens

Ice

deltat = x

m = 0.50 kg

c = 4.18

Hot water

deltat = 100 - x

m = 1.5 kg

c = 4.18

Formula

The heat up = heat down

0.50 * c * x = 1.5 * c * (100 - x)            Divide both sides by c

Solution

0.50 *x = 1.5*(100 - x)                          Remove the brackets.

0.5x = 150 - 1.5x                                  Add 1.5x to both sides.

0.5x + 1.5x = 150 - 1.5x + 1.5x             Combine like terms  

2x = 150                                               Divide by 2

x = 75

Answer

A
