Answer:

The magnifying power of this telescope is (-60).

Explanation:

Given that,

The focal length of the objective lens of an astronomical telescope, f_o=30\ cm

The focal length of the eyepiece lens of an astronomical telescope, f_e=5\ mm=0.5\ cm

To find,

The magnifying power of this telescope.

Solution,

The ratio of focal length of the objective lens to the focal length of the eyepiece lens is called magnifying of the lens. It is given by :

m=\dfrac{-f_o}{f_e}

m=\dfrac{-30}{0.5}

m = -60

So, the magnifying power of this telescope is 60. Therefore, this is the required solution.

Which of the following statements describe the steps you need to take to delete a file?
Doss [256]
In order to delete a file, it is required to first select the file which you want to delete and then select 'delete' from the file menu. It will then ask you to confirm the deletion which will be required in order to complete the file deletion process.

It isn't required to click on the X at the top right of the screen or to open the file you want to delete as these steps aren't relevant to the deletion process.

Hence, the statements which describe the steps you need to take in order to delete a file are as follows:

- Confirm the deletion.
- Select Delete from the File menu.
- Select the file you want to delete.

Three resistors of resistances, R1=10Ω, R2=5Ω, R3=20Ω are connected in a circuit in such way that same amount of current flows t
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer

Explanation:

As the three resistors are connected in series, the expression to be used for the  

calculation of RT equivalent resistance

is:  

RT = R1 + R2 + R3

We replace the data of the statement in the previous expression and it remains:  

5 10 15 RT + R1 + R2 + R3 + +

We perform the mathematical operations that lead us to the result we are looking for:  

RT - 30Ω

A bus moving along a level road increases its speed from 20 m/s to 35 m/s in 15.0s. What is the car's acceleration?​
Ksju [112]

Explanation:

initial velocity U = 20m/s

Final velocity V = 35m/s

time = 15.0 secs

change in velocity = 35 - 15

= 20m/s

acceleration a = change in velocity/time V/t

a = (35-20)/15

a= 15/15

Hence, your acceleration is 1m/s^2
