7 0

Answer:

The instrument is a microscope

Explanation:

the length of a given instrument is 14cm which is more than the sum of the focal length (0.6 + 4.5) = 5.1cm

however. the length of microscope is more than the sum of focal length of objective and eye pieces

Are the objects described here in static equilibrium, dynamic equilibrium, or not equilibrium at all? Explain.
Alexandra [31]
Let us examine the given situations one at a time.

Case a. A 200-pound barbell is held over your head.
The barbell is in static equilibrium because it is not moving.
Answer: STATIC EQUILIBRIUM

Case b. A girder is being lifted at a constant speed by a crane.
The girder is moving, but not accelerating. It is in dynamic equilibrium.
Answer: DYNAMIC EQUILIBRIUM

Case c: A jet plane has reached its cruising speed at an altitude.
The plane is moving at cruising speed, but not accelerating. It is in dynamic equilibrium.
Answer: DYNAMIC EQUILIBRIUM

Case d: A box in the back of a truck doesn't slide as the truck stops.
The box does not slide because the frictional force between the box and the floor of the truck balances out the inertial force. The box is in static equilibrium.
Answer: STATIC EQUILIBRIUM

An astronaut stands by the rim of a crater on the moon, where the acceleration of gravity is 1.62 m/. To determine the depth of
leva [86]

Answer;

=32.15 meters

Explanation;

Use the formula  

s= ut+ 0.5 a (t)^2 to find out 's'  

where s= distance traveled  

u=initial velocity which is zero in this case  

t= time taken to travel 's' distance  

a=acceleration (due to gravity on moon i.e 1.62 m/s^2 )  

Therefore;

S = 0.5 * 1.62 * 6.3 * 6.3

    = 32.1489 meters

Thus; the crater is 32.15 meters deep.

You are driving a 2400.0-kg car at a constant speed of 14.0 m/s along a wet, but straight, level road. As you approach an inters
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:0.43

Explanation:

Given

mass of car m=2400 kg

Speed of car u=14 m/s

Distance traveled before coming to halt s=23.2 m

Let \muthe coefficient of friction

Maximum deceleration road can provide during motion is

a=\mu g

using v^2-u^2=2 as

0-14^2=2\cdot (-\mu g)\cdot 23.2

\mu =\frac{196}{454.72}

\mu =0.431

A ball that is thrown upwards from the ground will eventually reach its highest point and fall back to the ground. Which of the
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

option (c)

Explanation:

When an object thrown upwards, the value of acceleration acting on the object is acceleration due to gravity which is always acting towards the earth.

As it falls downwards, the acceleration is again equal to the acceleration due to gravity.

So, the ball's acceleration is constant.
