Answer:

The answer is B. it magnifies light recieved from distant objects.

Explanation:

The telescope is an optical instrument that allows distant objects to be observed in much more detail than the naked eye when capturing electromagnetic radiation, such as light, that is, it is an instrument that works according to the optical principles of physics, taking light which enters through its lens and focusing it on a certain point.

If Earth was with no tilt, would we still have seasons at all? If so, how would they be different?
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

If earth had no tilt, we would have no seasons.

Explanation:

As stated in the answer, if the earth had no tilt we wouldn't have seasons. The earth all around the globe would maintain the same temperature,

And due to the no tilt it would also change our orbit to a bit larger slant, in January when we are at our closest to the sun we WOULD have a mini summer. For the North and South Pole, they would remain cold.

A mass m at the end of a spring oscillates with a frequency of 0.89 hz. when an additional 603 g mass is added to m, the frequen
MrMuchimi

The solution for this problem:

Given:

f1 = 0.89 Hz

f2 = 0.63 Hz

Δm = m2 - m1 = 0.603 kg 


The frequency of mass-spring oscillation is: 
f = (1/2π)√(k/m) 
k = m(2πf)² 

Then we know that k is constant for both trials, we have: 
k = k 


m1(2πf1)² = m2(2πf2)² 

m1 = m2(f2/f1)² 


m1 = (m1+Δm)(f2/f1)² 


m1 = Δm/((f1/f2)²-1)

 m 1 = 0.603/ (0.89/0.63)^2 – 1

= 0.609 kg or 0.61kg or 610 g

In a physics lab, light with a wavelength of 530 nm travels in air from a laser to a photocell in a time of 16.7 ns . When a sla
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

\lambda'=78.086\ nm

Explanation:

Given:

  • wavelength of light in the air, \lambda=530\times 10^{-9}\ m
  • time taken to travel from the source to the photocell via air, t=16.7\ s
  • time taken to reach the photocell via air and glass slab, t'=21.3\times 10^{-9}\ s
  • thickness of the glass slab, x=0.87\ m

<u>Now we have the relation for time:</u>

\rm time=\frac{distance}{speed}

hence,

t=\frac{d}{c}

c= speed of light in air

16.7\times 10^{-9}=\frac{d}{3\times 10^8}

d=16.7\times 10^{-9}\times 3\times 10^8

d=5.01\ m

For the case when glass slab is inserted between the path of light:

\frac{(d-x)}{c} +\frac{x}{v} =t' (since light travel with the speed c only in the air)

here:

v = speed of light in the glass

\frac{(5.01-0.87)}{3\times 10^8} +\frac{0.87}{v} =21.3\times 10^{-9}

v=4.42\times 10^7\ m.s^{-1}

Using Snell's law:

\frac{\lambda}{\lambda'} =\frac{c}{v}

\frac{530}{\lambda'} =\frac{3\times 10^8}{4.42\times 10^7}

\lambda'=78.086\ nm

Which of the following statements best explains why elements in the same family of the periodic table have similar bonding prope
slava [35]

Answer: D. The elements have the same number of valence electrons

Explanation: The chemical reactivity of elements is governed by the valence electrons present in the element.

The elements present in the same group or vertical column have similar valence configurations and thus behave similarly in chemical reactions or have similar bonding properties.

For Example: Both fluorine and chlorine belong to same family or group and both have 7 electrons in their valence shell and thus accept single electron to attain noble gas configuration.

F:9:1s^22s^22p^5

F^-:10: 1s^22s^22p^6

Cl:17:1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^5

Cl^-:18:1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^6

thus both would bond with a cation bearing a single positive charge.
