Answer:

C. A Tsunami

Explanation:

When there are earthquakes, volcanic eruptions or some underwater disturbances, a hue amount of water is displaced in the form of huge waves in a sea. This is known as tsunami.

In 2004 a major tsunami was caused by an undersea earthquake, in Indian Ocean, resulting in waves as high as 30 meters and affected 15 countries. Indonesia, Sri Lanka, and India were the worst affected countries.

A geneticist looks through a microscope to determine the phenotype of a fruit fly. The microscope is set to an overall magnifica

Ugo [173]

Answer:

$f_{e}$ = 1.9 cm

Explanation:

The magnification of a microscope is the product of the magnification of the eyepiece by the magnifier with the objective

M = M₀ $m_{e}$

Where M₀ is the magnification of the objective and $m_{e}$ is the magnification of the eyepiece.

The eyepiece is focused to the near vision point (d = 25 cm)

$m_{e}$ = 25 / $f_{e}$

The objective is focused on the distances of the tube (L)

M₀ = -L / f₀

Substituting

M = - L/f₀ 25/ $f_{e}$

1) Let's look for the focal length of the eyepiece (faith)

$f_{e}$ = - L 25 / f₀ M

M = 400X = -400

$f_{e}$ = - 12 25 /0.40 (-400)

$f_{e}$ = 1.875 cm

Let's approximate two significant figures

$f_{e}$ = 1.9 cm

Superman is flying 54.5 m/s when he sees

Nady [450]

348.34 m/s. When Superman reaches the train, his final velocity will be 348.34 m/s.

To solve this problem, we are going to use the kinematics equations for constant aceleration. The key for this problem are the equations $d=v_{0} t+\frac{at^{2} }{2}$ and $v_{f} =v_{0} +at$ where $d$ is distance, $v_{0}$ is the initial velocity, $v_{f}$ is the final velocity, $t$ is time, and $a$ is aceleration.

Superman's initial velocity is $v_{0}=54.5\frac{m}{s}$ , and he will have to cover a distance d = 850m in a time t = 4.22s. Since we know $d$ , $v_{0}$ and $t$ , we have to find the aceleration $a$ in order to find $v_{f}$ .

From the equation $d=v_{0} t+\frac{at^{2} }{2}$ we have to clear $a$ , getting the equation as follows: $a=\frac{2(d-v_{0}t) }{t^{2} }$ .

Substituting the values:

$a=\frac{2(850m-54.5\frac{m}{s}.4.22s) }{(4.22s)^{2}}=69.63\frac{m}{s^{2}}$

To find $v_{f}$ we use the equation $v_{f} =v_{0} +at$ .

Substituting the values:

$v_{f} =54.5\frac{m}{s} +(69.63\frac{m}{s^{2}}.4.22s)=348.34\frac{m}{s}$

Suppose the sphere is electrically neutral. Is it attracted to

Elden [556K]

Answer:

No, it is not attracted.

Explanation:

If any sphere is electrically neutral it is not attracted. The materials which are attracted by magnet are called magnetic material whereas which are not attracted are called non magnetic material. Sphere made up of non magnetic materials such as glass, wood, paper will not attracted weather is kept near north pole or near south pole.

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

The World Series

Explanation:

The Super Bowl is the championship American Football game, and the World Cup is the Soccer/Football game.

American Football and Football are different things. The first is what Americans call football, while the other is what Americans call soccer. It is confusing.
