A reflection telescope is build with a 20cmdiameter mirror having a 1.00mfocal length. it is used with a 10Xeyepiece. what are

(a) the magnification and

(b) the f-numberof the telescope?

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) 42km/s,

(b)1800km/s.

Step by step solution

01

part (a) Step 1: Given information

reflection telescope = 20cm

focallength=1.00m

using with a 10x eyepiece we need to find magnification

02

part (a) Step 2: simplify

Since the energy is conserved, all the energy due to the potential drop will be converted to kinetic energy

This means that

qV=mv22

from this, we can find the speed of the particles to be

ν=2qVm

The absolute value of the charges will be the same, e. Also, the product eVwill not change the sign since to accelerate two opposite charges we will have to apply opposite polarity accelerating potential differences. having said that we will numerically have

for the case of the portion

ν=2.1.6.10-19.9.1.67.10-27=4.2.104m/s

03

part (b) Step 3: Given information

reflection telescope = 20cm

focallength=1.00m

using with a10Xeyepiece we need to find f-numberof the telescope

04

Calculation

For the case of the electrons

ν=2.1.6.10-19.99.1.10-31=1.8.106m/s

A standardized biological microscope has an 8.0mmfocal length objective. what focal-length eyepiece should be used to achieve a total magnification of100x?

A microscope has a 20cmtube length. What focal-length objective will give total magnification localid="1649845070556" 500×when used with an eyepiece having a focal length 5.0cm?

High-power lasers are used to cut and weld materials by focusing the laser beam to a very small spot. This is like using a magnifying lens to focus the sun light to a small spot that can burn things. As an engineer you have designed a laser cutting device in which the material to be cut is placed 5.0cmbehind the lens. you have selected a high-power laser with a wavelength of

your calculation indicates that the laser must be focused to a 5.0-μm-diameterspot in order to have sufficient power to make the cut. what is the minimum diameter of lens you must install?

The Hubble Space Telescope has a mirror diameter of 2.4 m. Suppose the telescope is used to photograph stars near the center of our galaxy, 30,000 light years away, using red light with a wavelength of 650 nm.

a. What’s the distance (in km) between two stars that are marginally resolved? The resolution of a reflecting telescope is calculated exactly the same as for a refracting telescope.

b. For comparison, what is this distance as a multiple of the distance of Jupiter from the sun?

Modern microscopes are more likely to use a camera than human viewing. This is accomplished by replacing the eyepiece in Figure 35.14 with a photo-ocular that focuses the image of the objective to a real image on the sensor of a digital camera. A typical sensor is 22.5 mm wide and consists of 5625 4.0@mm@ wide pixels. Suppose a microscopist pairs a 40* objective with a 2.5* photo-ocular.

a. What is the field of view? That is, what width on the microscope stage, in mm, fills the sensor?

b. The photo of a cell is 120 pixels in diameter. What is the cell’s actual diameter, in mm?
