Astronomers use a special kind of instrument called a spectrometer to analyze stars. Spectrometers can determine what stars are

made of even if the stars are very far away. How is it possible for spectrometers to do this?

1. You place an object 63 cm in front of a converging lens, with a 40 cm focal length.

NikAS [45]

Answer:

1.

109.6 cm , - 1.74 , real

2.

1.5

Explanation:

1.

d₀ = object distance = 63 cm

f = focal length of the lens = 40 cm

d = image distance = ?

using the lens equation

$\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{d_{o}} + \frac{1}{d}$

$\frac{1}{40} = \frac{1}{63} + \frac{1}{d}$

d = 109.6 cm

magnification is given as

$m = \frac{-d}{d_{o}}$

$m = \frac{-109.6}{63}$

m = - 1.74

The image is real

2

d₀ = object distance = a

d = image distance = - (a + 5)

f = focal length of lens = 30 cm

using the lens equation

$\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{d_{o}} + \frac{1}{d}$

$\frac{1}{30} = \frac{1}{a} + \frac{1}{- (a + 5)}$

a = 10

magnification is given as

$m = \frac{-d}{d_{o}}$

$m = \frac{- (- (a +5))}{a}$

$m = \frac{(5 + 10)}{10}$

m = 1.5

gavmur [86]

Answer:

a. ρ $_\beta=1.996J/m^3$

b. $U_E=9.445x10^{-15} J/m^3$

Explanation:

a. To find the density of magnetic field given use the gauss law and the equation:

$i=14A$ , $d=2.5mm$ , $R=3.3$ Ω, $l=1 km$ , $E_o=8.85x10^{-12}F/m$ , $u_o=4*x10^{-7}H/m$

ρ $_\beta=\frac{\beta^2}{2*u_o}$

ρ $_\beta=\frac{1}{2*u_o}*(\frac{u_o*i^2}{2\pi *r})^2$

ρ $_\beta=\frac{u_o*i^2}{8\pi*r}=\frac{4\pi *10^{-7}H/m*(14A)^2}{8\pi*(1.25x10^{-3}m)^2}$

ρ $_\beta=1.996J/m^3$

b. The electric field can be find using the equation:

$U_E=\frac{1}{2}*E_o*E^2$

$E=(\frac{i*R}{l})^2$

$U_E=\frac{1}{2}*8.85x10^{-12}*(\frac{14A*3.3}{1000m})^2$

$U_E=9.445x10^{-15} J/m^3$
