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

Force F acts between two charges, q1 and q2, separated by a distance d. If q1 is increased to twice its original value and the d
Step2247 [10]
Okay, haven't done physics in years, let's see if I remember this.

So Coulomb's Law states that F = k \frac{Q_1Q_2}{d^2} so if we double the charge on Q_1 and double the distance to (2d) we plug these into the equation to find

<span>F_{new} = k \frac{2Q_1Q_2}{(2d)^2}=k \frac{2Q_1Q_2}{4d^2} = \frac{2}{4} \cdot k \frac{Q_1Q_2}{d^2} = \frac{1}{2} \cdot F_{old}</span>

So we see the new force is exactly 1/2 of the old force so your answer should be \frac{1}{2}F if I can remember my physics correctly.

Consider steady heat transfer between two large parallel plates at constant temperatures of T1 = 210 K and T2 = 150 K that are L
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

Q=81.56\ W/m^2

Explanation:

Given that

T_1= 210 K

T_2= 150 K

Emissivity of surfaces(∈) = 1

We know that heat transfer between two surfaces due to radiation ,when both surfaces are black bodies

Q=\sigma (T_1^4-T_2^4)\ W/m^2

So now by putting the values

Q=\sigma (T_1^4-T_2^4)\ W/m^2

Q=5.67\times 10^{-8}(210^4-150^4)\ W/m^2

Q=81.56\ W/m^2

So rate of heat transfer per unit area

Q=81.56\ W/m^2

If Light is travels from air into pure water with an incident angle of 30°. What is the angle of refraction?
Orlov [11]

Explanation:

For air, n1 = 1.00003; for water, n2 = 1.3330

Given: θ2 = 30 degrees, then

θ1 = arcsin [(n2/n1) sin θ2]

= arcsin [(1.3330/1.0003) sin (40)]

= 58.93 degrees

Note that since, in this example, light is traveling from a medium of higher density (water; n2 = 1.3330) to a medium of lower density (air; n1 = 1.0003), then n2 > n1, and the angle of refraction (θ1) is larger than the angle of incidence (θ2), thus the light bends away from the normal (in this example, the vertical) as it leaves the water and enters the air.
