Answer:

The ant

Explanation:

we know that the formula to calculate the work is: Fs

even though the elephant does exert force on a big tree, the distance it moved, which is s, is zero. F*s = F*0 = 0. It doesn't do work.

in contrast, the ant does exert force to drag a housefly, and it does move it, so it is doing work.

Why is it necessary to use oil in conjunction with the 100x lens but not the other objectives?
Setler [38]

Because the refractive indexes of the immersion oil and the glass microscope slide are the same; the oil prevents the refraction of the incoming light rays.

An invisible space is present between the slide and the lens that contains air.

When the light rays fall on the slide and lens they might get refracted due to air present between them.

If the rays get refracted then the diameter of the objective lens will expand further.

So in order to prevent the refraction of light, it is very important to lubricate the surface of the lens because without oil the light rays refract from their original path.

what is the focalength of the combination of two thin renses of power -5D and -2D placeci in contact with each other?​
Ghella [55]

Answer:

f = - 0.143 m = - 14.3 cm

Explanation:

First, we will calculate the power of the combination of lenses:

P = P₁ + P₂

where,

P = Power of Combination = ?

P₁ = Power of first lens = - 5D

P₂ = Power of second lens = - 2D

Therefore,

P = - 5D - 2D

P = - 7D

Now, the focal length can be given as:

f = \frac{1}{P} \\\\f = \frac{1}{-\ 7\ D} \\\\

<u>f = - 0.143 m = - 14.3 cm</u>

Negative focal length indicates that combination will act as diverging lens.
