A thin lens with a focal length of 6.0 cm is used as a simple magnifier by (a) what angular magnification is obtainable with the

lens if the object is at the focal point? (b) when an object is examined through the lens, how close can it be brought to the lens? assume that the image viewed by the eye is at the near point, 25.0 cm from eye, and that the lens is very close to the eye.

Answer:

4.167

4.83871 cm

Explanation:

u = Object distance

v = Image distance = 25 cm

f = Focal length = 6 cm

Angular magnification is given by

m=\frac{25}{f}\\\Rightarrow m=\frac{25}{6}\\\Rightarrow m=4.167

The angular magnification of the lens is 4.167

Lens equation

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{v}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{6}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{-25}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{25}=\frac{1}{u}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{u}=\frac{31}{150}\\\Rightarrow u=4.83871\ cm

The closest distance by which the object can be examined is 4.83871 cm

The higher the value of the coefficient of friction, the _______ the resistance to sliding.
Tom [10]
<span>The higher the value of the coefficient of friction, the more the resistance to sliding.  The answer is the more the resistance to sliding.  The</span> coefficient of friction<span> is a measure of how easily one object moves over another object. It is a ratio of: Force to move the object / weight of the object (or Normal Force)</span>

Why does Earth's moon have no atmosphere?
Margaret [11]
You can eliminate the answer A because the moon is super cold
For answer B, atmosphere is contained of gasses, not just oxygen alone
Definitely not C 
The answer is D because the moon's gravity isn't strong enough to hold the gasses, as a result, only a small amount of gasses has an attraction to it ( the moon has a little atmosphere though) but not enough to be considered
