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.

<span>The volcanoes of USA are located along the west coast, at the subduction of the Pacific and North American tectonic plates. During the 20th century there were only two eruptions in continental USA; Lassen in 1915, and Mt St Helens in 1980. Alaska and Hawaii contain currently active volcanoes. hope this helps:)</span>

the speed of a train is decreased in a uniform rate from 96 km/h to 48km/h through a distance of 800m. calculate the distance co
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

1066.67 m

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 96 km/h = 26.67 m/s

v = 48 km/h = 13.33 m/s

Δx = 800 m

Find: a

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

(13.33 m/s)² = (26.67 m/s)² + 2a (800 m)

a = -0.333 m/s²

Given:

v₀ = 26.67 m/s

v = 0 m/s

a = -0.333 m/s²

Find: Δx

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

(0 m/s)² = (26.67 m/s)² + 2 (-0.333 m/s²) Δx

Δx = 1066.67 m

Round as needed.

which is heavier, a one ton box or a one metric ton box? How many pounds heavier is one than the other?
arsen [322]

-- 1 ton is defined as 2,000 pounds.
-- 1 metric ton (or tonne) is defined as 1,000 kilograms of mass.

On Earth,1,000 kilograms of mass weigh 2,204.6 pounds ... 204.6 pounds
more than 1 ton.

On, say, the moon, however, 1,000 kilograms of mass weigh
only 364.9 pounds ... about 18% of 1 ton.

You are standing on the bottom of a lake with your torso above water. Which statement is correct?
marishachu [46]

Answer:

c. There is a buoyant force that is proportional to the volume of your body that is below the level of the water.

Explanation:

Buoyancy can be defined as a force which is created by the water displaced by an object.

Simply stated, buoyancy is directly proportional to the amount of water that is being displaced by an object.

Hence, the greater the amount of water an object displaces; the greater is the force of buoyancy pushing the object up.

The buoyancy of an object is given by the formula;

Fb = pgV

But, \; V = Ah

Hence, \; Fb = pgAh

Where;

Fb = buoyant force of a liquid acting on an object.

g = acceleration due to gravity.

p = density of the liquid.

v = volume of the liquid displaced.

h = height of liquid (water) displaced by an object.

A = surface area of the floating object.

The unit of measurement for buoyancy is Newton (N).

In this scenario, you are standing on the bottom of a lake with your torso above water. Thus, there is a buoyant force that is proportional to the volume of your body that is below the level of the water.
