8 0

Answer:

B. Earth rotates on its own axis and revolves around the Sun.

Explanation:

The earth moves not only in one way but in two ways. It revolves around its axis and revolves around the Sun.

We do not notice it because we are on Earth and we turn together with it.

When the Earth revolves around its (imagined) axis, we call such a movement a rotation, and when it revolves around the Sun - a revolution.

The given data is Magnification, M = 15

Length of the tube , L = 16 cm

The focal length of the lens can be calculated by:

M = L/F

Substituting the value, we get:

15 = 16/f

f = 16/15

f = 1.067 cm

Using the equation of magnification we get,

M = v/u

Substituting the values we get:

15 = v/u

v = 15 u

With the help of lens formula, calculate the object distance:

1/f = 1/v + 1/u

Substituting the value we get,

1/1.067 = 1/15u + 1/u

0.937 = 1.067/u

u = 1.13 cm or 1.1 cm.

Hence, the object distance is 1.1 cm.

Nuclear energy is a useful source of power but has disadvantages. What is a disadvantage of nuclear energy?
exis [7]

Answer:

Despite a generally high security standard, <u>accidents can still happen.</u> It is technically impossible to build a plant with 100% security. A small probability of failure will always last. The consequences of an <u>accident would be absolutely devastating both for human being as for the nature.</u>

Nuclear power plants as well as nuclear waste could be<u> preferred targets for terrorist attacks. </u>No atomic energy plant in the world could withstand an attack. Such a terrorist act would have <u>catastrophic effects for the whole world.</u>
