Answer: Option a, concave lens.

Explanation: The object that collects the light in a reflecting telescope is "kinda" concave lens that collects the light and directs it to a mirror, that is where the observer can see. So the correct answer is option a.

Concave lens. These are used in making the objectives of reflection telescopes

The ozone layer is found in which layer of the atmosphere

prohojiy [21]

This question is incomplete because the options are missing; here is the complete question

The ozone layer is found in which layer of the atmosphere?

A. Stratosphere

B. Mesosphere

C. Thermosphere

D. Troposphere

The correct answer is A. Stratosphere

Explanation:

The ozone layer as indicated by its name is mainly composed of Ozone (O2), this layer is essential for life because it filters ultraviolet radiation and acts as a greenhouse effect gas by trapping part of the heat from the sun. Additionally, the ozone layer is located in the stratosphere, which is the second layer of the atmosphere and can be found between 20 km to 50 km from Earth's surface. Moreover, the existence of the ozone layer in the stratosphere makes the temperature increase with height due to the radiation of the sun filter by ozone.

What is the smallest radius of an unbanked (flat) track around which a bicyclist can travel if her speed is 22 km/h and the coef

Aleks [24]

First, let's put 22 km/h in m/s:

$22 \frac{km}{h} \times \frac{1000m}{1km} \times \frac{1h}{3600s}=6.11 \frac{m}{s}$

Now the radial force required to keep an object of mass m, moving in circular motion around a radius R, is given by

$F_{rad}=m \frac{v^2}{R}$

The force of friction is given by the normal force (here, just the weight, mg) times the static coefficient of friction:

$F_{fric}= mg \mu_{s}$

Notice we don't use the kinetic coefficient even though the bike is moving. This is because when the tires meet the road they are momentarily stationary with the road surface. Otherwise the bike is skidding.

Now set these equal, since friction is the only thing providing the ability to accelerate (turn) without skidding off the road in a line tangent to the curve:

$m\frac{v^2}{R} = mg \mu_{s} \\ \\ \frac{v^2}{R} = g \mu_{s} \\ \\R= \frac{v^2}{g \mu_{s}} \\ \\ R= \frac{6.11}{9.8 \times 0.37}=1.685m$

A long jumper can jump a distance of 7.4 m when he takes off at an angle of 45° with respect to the horizontal. Assuming he can

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

0.02 m

Explanation:

R₁ = initial distance jumped by jumper = 7.4 m

R₂ = final distance jumped by jumper = ?

θ₁ = initial angle of jump = 45°

θ₂ = final angle of jump = 42.9°

$v$ = speed at which jumper jumps at all time

initial distance jumped is given as

$R_{1}=\frac{v^{2}Sin2\theta _{1} }{g}$

final distance jumped is given as

$R_{2}=\frac{v^{2}Sin2\theta _{2} }{g}$

Dividing final distance by initial distance

$\frac{R_{2}}{R_{1}}=\frac{Sin2\theta _{1}}{Sin2\theta _{2}}$

$\frac{R_{2}}{7.4}=\frac{Sin2(42.9)}{Sin2(45))}$

$R_{2} =7.38$

distance lost is given as

d = $R_{1} - R_{2}$

d = 7.4 - 7.38

d = 0.02 m

Changing the food given to hamsters causes different weight gain. why is this hypothesis bad?

timama [110]

This is a bad hypothesis because it's a statement. It is a description of what occurs, not a question that you will experiment upon to find an answer whether or not something will or will not be true.
