1. Virtual, 135 from the lens

The distance of the image from the lens can be calculated by using the lens equation:

\frac{1}{q}=\frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{p}

where

q is the distance of the image from the lens

f is the focal length

p is the distance of the mole from the lens

In this problem, we have

f = 15.0 cm is the focal length (positive for a convex lens, as the one in a magnifying glass)

p = 13.5 cm is the distance of the mole from the lens

Solving the equation for q,

q=\frac{1}{\frac{1}{15.0 cm}-\frac{1}{13.5 cm}}=-135 cm

The negative sign tells that the image is virtual (on the opposite side of the lens with respect to the image), and located 135 cm from the lens.

2. 10

The magnification M of the image is given by

M=-\frac{q}{p}

where

q = -135 cm is the distance of the image from the lens

p = 13.5 cm is the distance of the mole from the lens

Solving the equation for M, we find

M=-\frac{-135 cm}{13.5 cm}=10

3. 50 mm

The magnification equation can also be written as

M=\frac{h_i}{h_o}=-\frac{q}{p}

where

h_i is the size of the image

h_o is the size of the object

Since here we have

h_o = 5.00 mm diameter of the real mole

M = 10

We find

h_i = M h_o = (10)(5.00 mm)=50 mm

Jeff's body contains about 5.46 L of blood that has a density of 1060 kg/m3. Approximately 45.0% (by mass) of the blood is cells
barxatty [35]

Answer:

a

The mass of blood is m= 5.7876kg

b

The number of blood cells is  N_t=1.04*10^{13}

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

         The volume of blood  is  V_b = 5.46 \ L = \frac{5.46}{1000} = 0.00546m^3

         The density of the blood is  \rho_b = 1060 kg/m^3

         % of blood  that is  cell is  = 45.0%

        % of the blood that is  plasma is  = 55.0%

        density of blood cell is  \rho_d = 1125kg/m^3

        % of cell that are white is  = 1%

        % of cell that is red is  = 99%

        The diameter of the red blood cell is  = 7.5 \mu m = 7.5*10^{-6}m

         The radius of the red blood cell is  = \frac{7.5*10^{-6}}{2} = 3.75*10^{-6}m

Generally the mass is mathematically  represented as

               m = \rho_b * V_b

Substituting value

            m = 1060 * 0.00546

               m= 5.7876kg

Mass of cell is m_c = 45% of m

                         = 0.45 * 5,7876

                         = 2.60442 kg

The volume of cells is V_c = \frac{m_c}{\rho_d}

                                      = \frac{2.60442}{1125}

                                      = 2.315 *10^{-3} m^3

The volume of white blood cell is V_w = 1% of volume of cells

                                                         = \frac{1}{100} * 2.315*10^{-3}

                                                       = 2.315*10^{-5}m^3

The volume of a single cell is V_s = 4 \pi r^3

                                                                        = 4*(3.142) * (3.75*10^{-6})^3

                                                                        = 2.21*10^{-16}m^3

The volume of red blood cells is V_r = V_c - V_w

                                                           =2.315*10^{-3} - 2.315*10^{-5}

                                                           = 2.29*10^{-3}m^3

The number of red blood cell is  = \frac{V_r}{V_s}

                                                     = \frac{2.29 *10^{-3}}{2.21*10^{-16}}

                                                    = 1.037*10^{13}

The Number of white blood cell is   =\frac{V_w}{V_s}

                                                          = \frac{2.315 * 10^{-5}}{2.21*10^{-16}}

                                                          = 1.04*10^{11}

The total number of blood cells is  N_t= 1.037*10^{13} + 1.04*10^{11}

                                                        N_t=1.04*10^{13}

Which type of mountain is created when rock layers are pushed up by forces inside the Earth?
skad [1K]

Correct answer choice is :


B) Upwarped


Explanation:


An upwarped mountain is a mountain consisting of a large area of the Earth's coat that has led smoothly upward without much visible deformation and normally including sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic rocks. Sedimentary rocks are set down in layers called beds or layers. A bed is described as a layer of rock that has a similar lithology and character. Beds form by the removal of layers of sand on top of each other.

svetlana [45]
<span>The cation is positively charged and has a charge twice that of the anion, for example +2. The anion is negatively charged and in our example where the cation has a +2 charge, it must have a -1 charge. In order for the charges to equal zero, there must be two anions: -1 x 2 = -2 So the answer is D. AX2</span>

The sun is 150,000,000 km from the earth.
aniked [119]

Answer:

<h3>What is the angular speed of the earth around the sun? </h3>

It takes the Earth approximately 23 hours, 56 minutes and 4.09 seconds to make one complete revolution (360 degrees). This length of time is known as a sidereal day. The Earth rotates at a moderate angular velocity of

7.2921159 × 10 {}^{ - 5}  \:  \:  \frac{radians}{second}

<h3>What is the tangential speed of the earth? </h3>

The earth rotates once every 23 hours, 56 minutes and 4.09053 seconds, called the sidereal period, and its circumference is roughly 40,075 kilometers. Thus, the surface of the earth at the equator moves at a speed of 460 meters per second--or roughly 1,000 miles per hour.
