If gas costs $3.65 per gallon at a local service station, how many cubic feet of gas can a customer buy with $40 ?

1 answer:

3 0

Hi, thank you for posting your question here at Brainly.

For consistency you must convert gallons to cubic foot. The conversions are:

7.481 gal = 1 ft3

Then, $3.65 per gallon becomes $27.3 per ft3. If you buy $40 worth of gas, you get $40/$27.3 = 1.46 ft3 of gas.

If you can travel for 4 miles per ft3, then with the amount of gas you have, you can travel up to 5.85 miles.

(4 miles/ft3)*(1.46 ft3) = 5.85 miles

you should begin viewing a bacteria specimen with what objective lens? view available hint(s)for part g you should begin viewing

Sergio039 [100]

Some people view bacteria specimens with a 100x objective lens in order to see the smallest details.
Others may use a 10x objective lens for more general purposes, such as examining stained slides or pictures.
And still others may use a 40x objective lens to gain maximum resolution when viewing images of thick samples.

It is important to choose the appropriate magnification for your needs so that you can properly examine the specimen under study.

<h3>Why is the 100x objective lens necessary to see bacteria?</h3>

Bacteria must, of course, be viewed at the maximum magnification and resolution possible because to their small size.
Due to optical restrictions, this is approximately 1000x in a light microscope.
To improve resolution, the oil immersion method is performed. This calls for a unique 100x objective.

How does an atom change if all of its electrons are removed?

Alex

The atom becomes positively charged.

When you add electrons to a neutral atom, it is no longer a neutral atom, it has a negative change and is an anion. When you take away electrons from a neutral atom, it is no longer a neutral atom- it becomes a positive atom, and is a cation.

The central star of a planetary nebula emits ultraviolet light with wavelength 104nm. This light passes through a diffraction gr

Gala2k [10]

Answer: 31.33 degrees

Explanation:

The diffraction angles $\theta_{n}$ when we have a slit divided into $n$ parts are obtained by the following equation:

$dsin\theta_{n}=n\lambda$ (1)

Where:

$d$ is the width of the slit

$\lambda$ is the wavelength of the light

$n$ is an integer different from zero.

Now, the first-order diffraction angle is given when $n=1$ , hence equation (1) becomes:

$dsin\theta_{1}=\lambda$ (2)

Now we have to find the value of $\theta_{1}$ :

$sin\theta_{1}=\frac{\lambda}{d}$

$\theta_{1}=arcsin(\frac{\lambda}{d})$ (3)

We know:

$\lambda=104nm=104(10)^{-9}m$

In addition we are told the diffraction grating has 5000 slits per mm, this means:

$d=\frac{1mm}{5000}=\frac{1(10)^{-3}m}{5000}$

Substituting the known values in (3):

$\theta_{1}=arcsin(\frac{104(10)^{-9}m}{\frac{1(10)^{-3}m}{5000}})$

$\theta_{1}=arcsin(0.52)$

Finally:

$\theta_{1}=31.33\º$ >>>This is the first-order diffraction angle

Viewed through a spectroscope, the spectral profile of a yellow street lamp has a narrow line in the yellow region of the visibl

muminat

Answer:

discrete lines are observed by the spectroscope, the emission of the lamp is of the ATOMIC source

Explanation:

Bulbs can emit light in several ways:

* When the emission is carried out by the heating of its filament, the bulb is called incandescent, in general its spectrum is similar to that of a black body, this is a continuous spectrum with a maximum dependent on the fourth power of the temperature of the filament.

* The emission can be by atomic transitions, in this case there is a discrete spectrum formed by the spectral lines of the material that forms the gas of the lamp, in general for the yellow emission the most used materials are mercury and sodium or a mixture of they.

Consequently, as discrete lines are observed by the spectroscope, the emission of the lamp is of the ATOMIC type
