Electromagnetic waves vary in

1 answer:

5 0

The electromagnetic waves are types of waves which do not require medium for them to pass through to be able to travel from one location to another. The different types of electromagnetic waves therefore vary only in their wavelength and frequency. Thus, the answer is letter B.

"What is the magnifying power of an astronomical telescope using a reflecting mirror whose radius of curvature is 5.9 m and an e

notka56 [123]

Answer:

The Magnifying power of a telescope is $M = 109.26$

Explanation:

Radius of curvature R = 5.9 m = 590 cm

focal length of objective $f_{objective}$ = $\frac{R}{2}$

⇒ $f_{objective}$ = $\frac{590}{2}$

⇒ $f_{objective}$ = 295 cm

Focal length of eyepiece $f_{eyepiece}$ = 2.7 cm

Magnifying power of a telescope is given by,

$M = \frac{f_{objective} }{f_{eyepiece} }$

$M = \frac{295}{2.7}$

$M = 109.26$

therefore the Magnifying power of a telescope is $M = 109.26$

Express the kinetic energy K in terms of the potential energy U. K=GMm/2R

max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

K = -½U

Explanation:

From Newton's law of gravitation, the formula for gravitational potential energy is;

U = -GMm/R

Where,

G is gravitational constant

M and m are the two masses exerting the forces

R is the distance between the two objects

Now, in the question, we are given that kinetic energy is;

K = GMm/2R

Re-rranging, we have;

K = ½(GMm/R)

Comparing the equation of kinetic energy to that of potential energy, we can derive that gravitational kinetic energy can be expressed in terms of potential energy as;

K = -½U

The information on a can of soda indicates that the can contains 355 mL. The mass of a full can of soda is 0.369 kg, while an em

Vilka [71]

Answer:

$\rho=995.50\ kg.m^{-3}$

$\bar w=9765.887\ N.m^{-3}$

$s=0.9955$

Explanation:

Given:

volume of liquid content in the can, $v_l=0.355\ L=3.55\times 10^{-4}\ L$

mass of filled can, $m_f=0.369\ kg$

weight of empty can, $w_c=0.153\ N$

So, mass of the empty can:

$m_c=\frac{w_c}{g}$

$m_c=\frac{0.153}{9.81}$

$m_c=0.015596\ kg$

Hence the mass of liquid(soda):

$m_l=m_f-m_c$

$m_l=0.369-0.015596$

$m_l=0.3534\ kg$

Therefore the density of liquid soda:

$\rho=\frac{m_l}{v_l}$ (as density is given as mass per unit volume of the substance)

$\rho=\frac{0.3534}{3.55\times 10^{-4}}$

$\rho=995.50\ kg.m^{-3}$

Specific weight of the liquid soda:

$\bar w=\frac{m_l.g}{v_l}=\rho.g$

$\bar w=995.5\times 9.81$

$\bar w=9765.887\ N.m^{-3}$

Specific gravity is the density of the substance to the density of water:

$s=\frac{\rho}{\rho_w}$

where:

$\rho_w=$ density of water

$s=\frac{995.5}{1000}$

$s=0.9955$

Brad walks and jogs to schooll every day. He averages 5 km/hr walking and 9 km/hr jogging. The distane from home to shool is 6 k

Vitek1552 [10]

We know that
Distance = speed x time
Let w be the time Brad spent walking. The time spent jogging will be 1 - w
6 = 5w + 9(1 - w)
w = 0.75 hours
Distance walked = 0.75 x 5
= 3.75 km
