Answer: Light could be thought of as a stream of tiny particles discharged by luminous objects that travel in straight paths.

Explanation:

We can define "radiation" as the transmision of energy trough waves or particles.

Particularly, light is a form of electromagnetic radiation, so the "tiny particles" of light are discharged by a radiating object, particularly we can be more explicit and call it a luminous object, in this way we are being specific about the nature of the radiation of the object.

The girl makes a microscope with a 3.0 cm focal length objective and a 5.0 cm eyepiece. The microscope tube length is 10 cm. Use
saul85 [17]

To solve this problem we will use the concepts related to Magnification. Magnification is the process of enlarging the apparent size, not physical size, of something. This enlargement is quantified by a calculated number also called "magnification".

The overall magnification of microscope is

M = \frac{Nl}{f_ef_0}

Where

N = Near point

l = distance between the object lens and eye lens

f_0= Focal length

f_e= Focal of eyepiece

Given that the minimum distance at which the eye is able to focus is about 25cm we have that N = 25cm

Replacing,

M = \frac{25*10}{3*5}

M = 16.67\approx 17\\

Therefore the correct answer is C.

A rock of mass m is thrown straight up into the air with initial speed |v0 | and initial position y = 0 and it rises up to a max
REY [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Case 1:

mass = m

initial velocity = vo

final velocity = 0

height = y

Use third equation of motion

v² = u² - 2as

0 = vo² - 2 g y

y = vo² / 2g       ... (1)

Case 2:

mass = 2m

initial velocity = 2vo

final velocity = 0

height = y '

Use third equation of motion

v² = u² - 2as

0 = 4vo² - 2 g y'

y ' = 4vo² / 2g

y' = 4 y

Thus, the second rock reaches the 4 times the distance traveled by the first rock.

Which best explains why the shape of a liquid can change?
topjm [15]
The particles in a liquid are extremely fast, not faster than a gas, but faster than a solid. The way the particles move allow you to get volume but not area for it doesn't have a defiant shape

How are electromagnetic waves able to travel without a medium?
vazorg [7]
Electromagnetic waves differ from mechanical waves in that they do not require a medium to propagate. this means that electromagnetic waves can travel not only trough air and solid materials, but also trough the vacuum of space.
