Which of the following would be found on a reflecting telescope?
concave mirror |
|
concave lens |
|
convex mirror |
|
convex lens |
A concave (or converging) mirror bulges inward and focuses reflected light on the mirror's focal point where the mirror's angles of incidence converge. In contrast, a convex (or diverging) mirror bulges outward and diffuses the light waves that strike it. A common use of a concave mirror is in a reflecting telescope, a common use of a convex mirror is in the side view mirror of a car.
Elements that belong to the same period in the Periodic Table of the Elements have the same number of:
atomic mass units |
|
protons |
|
electron shells |
|
electrons |
The rows of the Periodic Table are called periods and contain elements that have the same number of electron shells ordered from lower to higher atomic number.
Which of these does not contain oxygenated blood?
left ventricle |
|
pulmonary vein |
|
aorta |
|
right atrium |
To provide oxygen to the body, blood flows through the heart in a path formed by the right atrium → right ventricle → lungs → left atrium → left ventricle → body. When blood enters the right side of the heart it is deoxygenated. It enters the left side of the heart oxygenated after traveling to the lungs.
The pitch of the siren of an approaching ambulance changes as it approaches you. This is an example of which of the following?
