Explanation :

Telescope is an instrument which is used to magnify distant objects bright, consistent and large.

The function of an ideal telescope must be :

Magnification
Resolution
Power of gathering of light

There are many types of Telescope like:

X ray telescope
Optical telescope
Ultraviolet telescope etc

Hence, the correct option is (b) " It magnifies light received from distant objects ".

Suppose the electric field in problems 2 was caused by a point charge. The test charge is moved to a distance twice as far from

mojhsa [17]

Answer:

it is reduced four times.

Explanation:

By definition, the electric field is the force per unit charge created by a charge distribution.

If the charge creating the field is a point charge, the force exerted by it on a test charge, must obey Coulomb´s Law, so, it must be inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the charges.

So, if the distance increases twice, as the force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance, and the square of 2 is 4, this means that the magnitude of the force exerted on the test charge must be 4 times smaller.

It is known that birds can detect the earth's magnetic field, but the mechanism of how they do this is not known. It has been su

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

$EMF = 5.01 \times 10^{-4} Volts$

Explanation:

Here we know that the EMF induced in this Field is given as

$EMF = vBL$

here B = perpendicular component of magnetic field

v = speed of the bird

L = length of the wings

now we have

$B = 5\times 10^{-5} sin40$

$v = 13 m/s$

$L = 1.2 m$

now we have

$EMF = (13)(3.21 \times 10^{-5})(1.2)$

$EMF = 5.01 \times 10^{-4} Volts$

At standard temperature and pressure, carbon dioxide has a density of 1.98 kg/m3. What volume does 1.70 kg of carbon dioxide occ

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

<h2>volume= 0.85m^3</h2>

Explanation:

<em>The density of a substance is defined as the mass per unit volume of the substance, the unit is in kg/m^3 and it is represented by the greek letter rho</em>

Step one:

given data

we are told that the density of Co2= 1.98 kg/m3

and the mass of Co2 is= 1.70 kg

we know the relation between mass, volume and density is

$density=mass/volume$
