What is the explanation for how a modern transmission electron microscope (TEM) can achieve a resolution of about 0.2 nanometers

Answer:

Explanation:

A simple light microscope uses light for imaging of objects where as a transmission electron microscope uses a monochromatic beam of electrons.

This beam is passed by a magnetic field which is very strong and thus act as a lens.

Its resolution of very high which is about 0.2 nanometers because of the separation between two atoms.

Because of this reason its resolution is about 1000 times greater than light microscope.

A truck collides with a car on horizontal ground. At one moment during the collision, the magnitude of the acceleration of the t
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

The magnitude of the acceleration of the car is 35.53 m/s²

Explanation:

Given;

acceleration of the truck, a_t = 12.7 m/s²

mass of the truck, m_t = 2490 kg

mass of the car, m_c = 890 kg

let the acceleration of the car at the moment they collided = a_c

Apply Newton's third law of motion;

Magnitude of force exerted by the truck = Magnitude of force exerted by the car.

The force exerted by the car occurs in the opposite direction.

F_c = -F_t\\\\m_ca_c = -m_t a_t\\\\a_c =- \frac{m_ta_t}{m_c} \\\\a_c = -\frac{2490 \times 12.7}{890} \\\\a_c = - 35.53 \ m/s^2

Therefore, the magnitude of the acceleration of the car is 35.53 m/s²

an input force of 50 Newtons is applied through a distance of 10 meters to machine with mechanical advantage of 3. If the work o
gladu [14]
The output of the machine is

                                      (output work) =  (output force) x (distance)

                                        450 N-m      =  (output force) x (3 meters)

Divide each side
by  3 meters:                Output force = (450 N-m) / (3 m)

                                                           =    150 newtons .

With all the information given about the output work, we don't need
to know anything about the input work, or even the fact that we're
dealing with a machine.

It's comforting, though, to look back and notice that the output work
(450 N-m) is not more than the input work (500 N-m).  So everything
is nice and hunky-dory.
___________________________________

Well, my goodness !
I didn't even need to go through all of that.

Given:

-- The input force to the machine is 50 newtons.

-- The mechanical advantage of the machine is 3 .

That right there tells us that

-- The output force of the machine is 150 newtons.

We don't need any of the other given information.

If the loss of 3500 kcal is equal to a loss of 1.0 lb, how many days will it take charles to lose 5.0 lb
rusak2 [61]
We are missing an important piece of information needed to answer this question: the number of kcal Charles losses per day. However, we can come up with a general equation in which kcal/day is the only independent variable.

We know that it takes 3500 kcal to lose one pound. To lose 5 pounds, Charles needs to lose 5 x 3500 kcal = 17,500 kcal. 

To find how many days it takes Charles to lose 17,500 kcal (5 pounds), we must divide that amount by the number of kcal Charles loses per day. 
Here is the equation to calculate that number

Number of days= 17500 / (kcal per day)

If given calories, remember that 1000 calories = 1 kcal, and .001 kcal = 1 cal

A 0.600-mm diameter wire stretches 0.500% of its length when it is stretched with a tension of 20.0 n. what is the young's modul
Rashid [163]
The Young modulus is given by:
E= \frac{F /A}{\Delta L / L_0}
where
F is the force applied
L_0 is the initial length of the wire
A is the cross-sectional area of the wire
\Delta L is the stretch of the wire

The wire in the problem stretches by 0.5% of its length, this means 
\frac{\Delta L}{L_0}  = 0.005

We can also calculate the area of the wire; its radius is in fact half the diameter:
r= \frac{d}{2}= \frac{0.600 mm}{2}=0.300 mm=0.3 \cdot 10^{-3} m
and so the area is
A=\pi r^2 = \pi (0.3 \cdot 10^{-3} m)^2 = 2.83 \cdot 10^{-7} m^2

We know the force applied to the wire, F=20 N, so now we have everything to calculate the Young modulus:

E=  \frac{F/A}{\Delta L / L_0} = \frac{20 N/(2.83 \cdot 10^{-7} m^2)}{0.005}=1.42 \cdot 10^{10} N/m^2

The equation for the change in the position of a train (measured in units of length) is given by the following expression: x = ½
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

(B) (length)/(time³)

Explanation

The equation x = ½ at² + bt³ has to be dimensionally correct. In other words the term bt³ and ½ at² must have units of change of position = length.

We solve in order to find the dimension of b:

[x]=[b]*[t]³

length=[b]*time³

[b]=length/time³
