What is the explanation for how a modern transmission electron microscope (TEM) can achieve a resolution of about 0.2 nanometers

, whereas a standard light microscope has a maximum resolution of about 200 nanometers?

IgorC [24]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Explanation:

A simple light microscope uses light for imaging of objects where as a transmission electron microscope uses a monochromatic beam of electrons.

This beam is passed by a magnetic field which is very strong and thus act as a lens.

Its resolution of very high which is about 0.2 nanometers because of the separation between two atoms.

Because of this reason its resolution is about 1000 times greater than light microscope.

Calculate the speed of a gamma ray with a frequency of 3.0 x 10^19 Hz and a wavelength of 1.0 x 10^-11 m.
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

Speed of gamma rays = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Frequency of gamma ray = 3 x 10¹⁹ Hz

Wavelength of gamma rays = 1 x 10⁻¹¹ meter

Find:

Speed of gamma rays

Computation:

Velocity = Frequency x wavelength

Speed of gamma rays = Frequency of gamma ray x Wavelength of gamma rays

Speed of gamma rays = [3 x 10¹⁹][1 x 10⁻¹¹]

Speed of gamma rays = 3 x [10¹⁹⁻¹¹]

Speed of gamma rays = 3 x [10⁸]

Speed of gamma rays = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

How fast can a 4000 kg truck travel around a 70 m radius turn without skidding if its tires share a 0.6 friction coefficient wit
aleksley [76]

Answer:

Velocity of truck will be 20.287 m /sec

Explanation:

We have given mass of the truck m = 4000 kg

Radius of the turn r = 70 m

Coefficient of friction \mu =0.6

Centripetal force is given  F=\frac{mv^2}{r}

And frictional force is equal to F_{frictional}=\mu mg

For body to be move these two forces must be equal

So \frac{mv^2}{r}=\mu mg

v=\sqrt{\mu rg}=\sqrt{0.6\times 70\times 9.8}=20.287m/sec

An 50kg car travels at 2m/s. What is the car's Kinetic energy? <br> 100J<br> 200J<br> 50J
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

The answer is 100J.

Explanation:

In classical mechanics, kinetic energy (KE) is equal to half of an object's mass (1/2*m) multiplied by the velocity squared. In this question, the mass is equals to 50kg and the velocity is 2m/s

Now,

25kg×4m/s^2 = 100kgm/s^2 or 100J

a man exerts 700 newtons of force to move a piece of furniture 4 meters. if it takes him 2 seconds to move the furniture, how mu
dybincka [34]

                               Work = (force) x (distance)

The work he did:    Work = (700 N) x (4m)  =  2,800 joules

The rate at which
he did it (power):    Work/time =  2,800 joules/2 sec

                                                =  1,400  joules/sec

                                                =  1,400 watts

                                                =  1.877... horsepower (rounded)
