Answer:

Yes it is possible to have total internal reflection for light incident from air on water.

Explanation:

  • The objective of total Internal Reflection is giving the full reflection of a ray of light within a medium.Rainbow is the best example for this question.
  • It can be explained by the example of a rainbow in which light from the sun is travelling in the medium if air and goes through total internal reflection in the tiny water droplet resulting in splitting of the white light into its 7 components and thus forming a rainbow.

gayaneshka [121]

1. a) In order to sharpen the objective with a 40x objective (400x total magnification), the objective must be closer to the sample than with a 10x objective (100x total magnification), so the sample is out of focus.

b) At 400x total magnification, the field of view is narrower than at 100x total magnification.

c) A 40x objective (i.e. 400x total magnification) has a higher numerical aperture than a 10x objective (i.e. 100x total magnification) and therefore provides better resolution.

d) Shallow depth of field.

e) The amount of light is reduced.

f) Shorter working distance.

2. The best objective for observing bacteria is the 100x objective, which is the immersion objective.

3. Without the addition of immersion oil, the sample will look blurry and will not give maximum resolution.

Oil having a specific gravity of 0.9 is pumped as illustrated with a water jet pump. The water volume flowrate is 1 m3 /s. The w
love history [14]

Answer:

The rate at which the pump moves oil is 1 m³/s

Explanation:

Assumptions:

  • there is steady-state flow
  • oil and water are incompressible
  • first fluid is water, second fluid is oil and third fluid is the mixture of oil and water.

\rho_1Q_1 + \rho_2Q_2 = \rho_3Q_3 -------equation (i)

where;

ρ is the fluid density

Q is the volumetric flow rate

Q_1 + Q_2 = Q_3--------equation (ii)

Substitute in Q₃ in equation i

\rho_1Q_1 + \rho_2Q_2 = \rho_3(Q_1 +Q_2)

divide through by ρ₁

\frac{\rho_1Q_1}{\rho_1}+ \frac{\rho_2Q_2}{\rho_1} =\frac{ \rho_3(Q_1 +Q_2)}{\rho_1}\\\\Note; \frac{\rho_2}{\rho_1} = \gamma_2 \ and \ \frac{\rho_3}{\rho_1} = \gamma_3\\\\Q_1 + \gamma_2Q_2 = \gamma_3(Q_1+Q_2)

Make Q₂ the subject of the formula

Q_2 = \frac{Q_1(1- \gamma_3)}{\gamma_3-\gamma_2} = \frac{1 (\frac{m^3}{s}) (1-0.95)}{0.95-0.9} = 1 \ \frac{m^3}{s}

Therefore, the rate at which the pump moves oil is 1 m³/s

Gravity accelerates any object falling at 9.8 m/s2. What is the force that will be applied to the ground if an 88 kg box falls f
saw5 [17]

Answer:

The force is of the weight <u>862,4 Newtons.</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

We have the formula:

w = m * g

Data:

w = weight = ¿?

m = mass = 88 kg

g = gravity = 9,8 m/s

Replacing according formula:

w = 88 kg * 9,8 m/s

Resolving:

w = 862,4 N
