glass prism toward air of index, nair = 1. Using
Snell's law:
nglass sin Øc = nair sin 90°, and because nglass =
1.52; sin Øc = 1/1.52 and Øc = 41°.

The objective lens is a projection lens, pro-
ducing an inverted real image. The first image
lies within the focal length of the eyepiece, which
therefore acts as a magnifying glass, forming a
virtual, enlarged image. The eyepiece does not
invert the image.
77.
B.
As the object (primate) moves closer to the
objective, the real image formed by the objective
is further away from the objective, i.e., closer to
the original position of the eyepiece. To see the
image clearly, the eyepiece must be moved
"back" away from the objective in order to focus
the second (virtual) image clearly. (It is the eye-
piece that is adjustable in telescopes and binocu-
lars.) This is similar to holding this printed page
too close to your eyes to see clearly. If you hold
the page still and move your head away you will
be able to see the print clearly.

The pressure is due to the weight of a
column of fluid 75 m tall. P = dgy; where d =
density of the liquid, and y is the depth below the
surface; g is the acceleration of gravity, 9.8

Pressure is force divided by area, or
P = F/A; so F = PA. It is necessary to convert the
area from cm2 to m2 (by multiplying by
10
-4 m2/cm2). Thus F = 6.86

Treating the air as an ideal gas, we see that
P1V1 = P2V2, or V2 = P1V1/P2. Notice that we
must use the absolute pressures in this expression.
Then P1 = 8.36

C.
The work done on charged particles by
electric fields depends on the charge of the parti-
cle and the voltage difference (not on the mass of
the particle). The electric work, W = qV,
increases the kinetic energy of the particles, in
this case from zero to the final KE. Because the
charges for electron and proton are equal, they
have equal final kinetic energies (although the
electron has a greater speed).
84.
C.
We need to know the force (F = qvB sin
)
on a moving charge in a magnetic field and we
need the "right-hand rule" for the vector direc-
tion of the force on a positively charged particle
(knowing the vector velocity and vector magnetic
field, B). For a positive charge moving horizon-
tally north through a magnetic field pointing hor-
izontally west, the magnetic force is vertically
upward. The negative electron is equivalent to a
positive charge moving in the opposite direction
so the force on both electron and proton is
upward.
85.
A.
The magnetic force acts only at right angles
to the velocity of a charged particle. It can
change the direction of the velocity vector but
not its magnitude (speed is the magnitude of
velocity).
86.
C.
The charged particles are now moving par-
allel to the magnetic field direction so that sin
is zero in the magnetic force equation (F = qvB
sin
). The magnetic force on each is zero, and
their paths are not deflected.
87.
B.
The electric force, F = qE, shows that the
direction of the force is parallel to E for positive
charges like protons, and opposite (antiparallel)
for negative charges like electrons.
88.
B.
The speed of any wave is the product of its
frequency and wavelength, v = f
. This is true for
all waves, including sound, light, radio waves,
and so forth. Thus
= v/f.

A.
The angular acceleration is the change in
angular velocity divided by the time taken, or
=
(
f
i)/t. Converting
to rad/sec:
f = 57,300 rev/min

rad/rev
1 min/60sec = 6000 rad/sec
= (6000 rad/sec – 0)/120 sec = 50 rad/sec2

B.
Under the conservation of energy principle,
the initial kinetic energy will be entirely converted
