became social and so humans have for centuries needed to know who to trust. And since it is impossible to categorize every single person we interact with‚ we make snap judgements. We prefer people like us and that means that there is an unconscious bias that exists all the time‚ whether we like it or not‚ and whether we acknowledge it or not. This has been proven by rigorous scientific studies‚ again

EXPERIMENT 7 EXPERIMENT 7 EXP 7: THE FOCAL LENGTH OF A CONVEX LENS BY GRAPHICAL METHOD EXP 7: THE FOCAL LENGTH OF A CONVEX LENS BY GRAPHICAL METHOD ABSTRACT The report is about the focal length of a convex lens using the graphical method. The aim of the report is to determine the focal length of a convex lens using the graphical method. The focal length of an optical system is a measure of how strongly the system converges or diverges light. The method that was used was experimentation

Lecturer’s name : Mr. Zikri Introduction An optical lens is made of transparent material such as glass or clear plastic. One or both surface usually has a spherical curve. There are two types of lenses‚ converging and diverging lens. A converging lens is called a convex lens. It is thicker at the centre than at the edges. A diverging lens is called a concave lens. It is thinner at the centre than at the edges. For a convex lens‚ light rays parallel and close to the principal axis are refracted

ocular micrometer constant‚ the objective lens constant can be known from the product of the ocular micrometer constant and the eyepiece magnification. The magnification of the illustration can be derived using the monocot root slide. Finally‚ when these constants are obtained‚ the magnification of the drawing is obtained. After calibration and computations‚ the following findings have been derived: Ocular micrometer constant 0.01 mm Objective lens calibration 1 mm Size of metaxylem 11
