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

True [87]
The water cycle starts with evaporation. It is a process where water at the surface turns into water vapors. Water absorbs heat energy from the sun and turns into vapors. Water bodies like the oceans, the seas, the lakes, and the river bodies are the main source of evaporation. Through evaporation water  moves from hydrosphere to atmosphere.

A wave of amplitude 20mm has intensity Ix. Another wave of the same frequency but of amplitude 5mm has an intensity Iy.
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

(C) 16

Explanation:

Given:

The amplitude of first wave (s₁) = 20 mm

The amplitude of second wave (s₂) = 5 mm

Intensity of first wave = Iₓ

Intensity of second wave = I_y

The intensity associated with a wave depends on the amplitude of the wave.

The intensity (I) is directly proportional to the square of the amplitude (s) of the wave and is expressed as:

I=ks^2\\Where\ k\to constant\ of\ proportionality

Now, the intensities of the two waves are given as:

I_x=ks_1^2=k(20)^2\\\\I_y=ks_2^2=k(5)^2

Dividing both the intensities, we get:

\frac{I_x}{I_y}=\frac{k(20)^2}{k(5)^2}\\\\\frac{I_x}{I_y}=\frac{400}{25}\\\\\frac{I_x}{I_y}=16

Therefore, the option (C) is correct.

What is the magnetic force on a proton that is moving at 4.5 x 10^7 m/s to the right through a magnetic field that is 1.6 T and
Agata [3.3K]
The magnetic force on a charged particle is given as: F = qvBsinФ
B is the magnetic field.
q is the charge on the particle.
v is the velocity of the charged particle.
 Ф is the angle between magnetic field (B) & the velocity of charge (v).


⇒ F = qvb sin Ф

Here, Ф = 90 degree.
and sin 90 = 1
Putting the values in the equation, we get,

F = 1.6 x 10^-19 C × 4.5 × 10^7 m/s × 1.6 T
= 11.52 × 10^-12N
= 1.2 x 10^-11 N up
