A geneticist looks through a microscope to determine the phenotype of a fruit fly. The microscope is set to an overall magnifica

tion of 400x with an objective lens that has a focal length of 0.60 cm. The distance between the eyepiece and objective lenses is 16 cm.
1) Find the focal length of the eyepiece lens assuming a near point of 25 cm (the closest an object can be and still be seen in focus). Do not neglect any values in your calculation. (Express your answer to two significant figures.)

Answer:

f_{e} = 1.7 cm

Explanation:

The magnification of the compound microscope is given by the product of the magnification of each lens

        M = M₀ m_{e}

        M = - L/f₀  25/f_{e}

Where f₀ and f_{e} are the focal lengths of the lens and eyepiece, respectively, all values ​​in centimeters

In this exercise they give us the magnification (M = 400X), the focal length of the lens (f₀ = 0.6 cm), the distance of the tube (L = 16 cm), let's look for the focal length of the eyepiece (f_{e})

         f_{e} = - L / f₀ 25 / M

Let's calculate

        f_{e} = - 16 / 0.6 25 / (-400)

        f_{e} = 1.67 cm

The minus sign in the magnification is because the image is inverted.

          f_{e} = 1.7 cm

Two forces (4N and 3N) pull your the left, while a 12N force pulls to the right. What is the net force
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

The answer is 11N to the right

Explanation:

Because 4N-3N= 1N

Therefore, 12N-1N=11N

The netforce is 11N to the right, because the greatest force is 12N to the right so it is more likely that the object is being pulled to the right.

What connects the upper motor neurons to lower motor neurons?
skad [1K]

Answer:

The upper motor neurons synapse in the spinal cord connect with anterior horn cells of lower motor neurons, usually via interneurons. The anterior horn cells are the cell bodies of the lower motor neurons and are located in the grey matter of the spinal cord.

Explanation:

Interneurons are the central nodes of neural circuits, enabling communication between the upper motor neurons, sensory or motor neurons located in the brain and spinal cord and they send signals to lower motor neurons or central nervous system (CNS) in the brain stem and spinal cord . When they get a signal from the upper motor neurons, they send another signal to your muscles to make them contract. They play vital roles in reflexes, neuronal oscillations, and neurogenesis in the adult mammalian brain.

Renshaw cells are among the very first identified interneurons. They are excited by the axon collaterals of the motor neurons. In addition, Renshaw cells make inhibitory connections to several groups of motor neurons.

I'm trying to find the potential energy of a planet using formula G M(sun) x m(planet) / r. I have given G - newton's graviation
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

-5.39\times10^{33} J

Explanation:

Potential energy =

-\frac{GMm}{r}\\=-\frac{6.67\times10^{-11}\times1.99\times10^{30}\times5.97\times10^{24}}{147/1\times10^{9}}\\=-5.39\times10^{33} J

What is a materials ability to be dissolved in a solvent
weeeeeb [17]
Answer: Solubility

Solubility is the ability to be dissolved. Saturation is when the concentration is too high(more than solubility) that when you add another material it won't dissolve. Solute is the material that dissolved. Solvent is the material that used for dissolving

suppose that you had an ohmmeter and a mystery component that could be either an inductor or a capacitor. How could you use the
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

To determine the mystery component we will connect the mystery component to a DC voltage source, then I will measure the resistance of the component with the use of Ohmmeter, the value of the resistance of the mystery component will determine what the mystery component is

if the resistance > 1( very high )   then component is a capacitor

if the resistance = 0 then component is an inductor
