Answer:

m = 469.51

Explanation:

Given that,

The diameter of a refracting telescope is 1.48 m

Focal length of the objective lens is 15.4 m

Focal length of an eyepiece is 3.28 cm

We need to find the angular magnification of the telescope. The ratio of focal length of objective lens to the focal length of the eye piece is called angular magnification of the telescope. So,

m=\dfrac{f_o}{f_e}\\\\m=\dfrac{15.4}{3.28\times 10^{-2}}\\\\m=469.51

So, the angular magnification of the telescope is 469.51.

dybincka [34]

Answer:

Answer is explained in the explanation section below.

Explanation:

Solution:

We know from the Coulomb's Law that, Coulomb's force is directly proportional to the product of two charges q1 and q2 and inversely proportional to the square of the radius between them.

So,

F = \frac{Kq1q2}{r^{2} }

Now, we are asked to get the greatest force. So, in order to do that, product of the charges must be greatest because the force and product of charges are directly proportional.

Let's suppose, q1 = q

So,

if q1 = q

then

q2 = Q-q

Product of Charges = q1 x q2

Now, it is:

Product of Charges = q x (Q-q)

So,

Product of Charges = qQ - q^{2}

And the expression qQ - q^{2} is clearly a quadratic expression. And clearly its roots are 0 and Q.

So, the highest value of the quadratic equation will be surely at mid-point between the two roots 0 and Q.

So, the midpoint is:

q = \frac{Q + 0}{2}

q = Q/2 and it is the highest value of each charge in order to get the greatest force.

What is difference between kilowatt and kilowatt hour?
Scrat [10]
Those two units can be compared to a 'mile per hour' and a 'mile per hour - hour'.
One is a rate.  The other is a quantity, after maintaining a rate for some time.

-- 'Joule' is a unit of energy.  It's the amount of work (energy) you do
when you push with a force of 1 newton though a distance of 1 meter.
Lifting 10 pound of beans 3 feet off the floor takes about 40.7 joules of energy.

-- 'Watt' is a <u><em>rate</em></u> of using energy . . . 1 joule per second.
If you lift 10 pounds 3 feet off the floor in 1 second, your <em>power</em> is 40.7 watts.

-- 'Watt-second' is the amount of energy used in one second,
at the rate of 1 joule per second . . . 1 joule.

-- 'Watt-hour' is the amount of energy used in one hour,
at the rate of 1 joule per second . . . 3,600 joules.

-- 'Kilowatt' is a bigger <em>rate</em> of using energy . . . 1,000 joules per second.

-- 'Kilowatt - second' is the amount of energy used in one second,
at the rate of 1,000 joules per second . . . 1,000 joules .

-- 'Kilowatt - hour' is the amount of energy used in one hour,
at the rate of 1,000 joules per second . . . 3,600,000 joules .

Depending on where you live, 3,600,000 joules of energy bought
from the electric company costs something between 5¢ and 25¢.

What's the minimum Out PUT WORK<br> required to raise 14,0m3 of water 26.0m?
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

3.57 MJ

Explanation:

ASSUMING it's fresh water with density of 1000 kg/m³

W = ΔPE = mgΔh = 14.0(1000)(9.81)(26.0) = 3,570,840 J

Salt water would require more.
