The angular separation is 4.88 * 10^{-5}  rad

What is angular distance formula?

The formula is θ=s/r, where, θ is Angular Displacement, s is the distance traveled by the body, and. r is the radius of the circle along which it is moving.

What is meant by angular resolution?

The angular resolving power (or resolution) of a telescope is the smallest angle between close objects that can be seen clearly to be separate. Resolution is limited by the wave nature of light.

The angular separation is calculated as given below.

θ = 1.220 λ/d

Where λ  is the wavelength and d is the diameter of the lens aperture.

θ1 = 1.220 * \frac{600 * 10^{-9} }{1.5 * 10^{-2} }

    =  4.88 × 10^{-5} rad

Therefore, The angular separation is 4.88 × 10^{-5} rad.

A constant torque of 26.6 N · m is applied to a grindstone for which the moment of inertia is 0.162 kg · m2 . Find the angular s
ozzi

Answer:

156.1 rad/s = 24.8 rev/s

Explanation:

Torque = Momentum of inertial × radial acceleration = Iα

τ = 26.6 N.m

I = 0.162 kg.m²

26.6 = 0.162 × α

α = 164.2 rad/s²

Using equations of motion,

θ = 11.8 rev = 11.8 × 2π = 74.2 rad

w₀ = 0 rad/s (since the grindstone starts from rest)

w = ?

α = 164.2 rad/s²

w² = w₀² + 2(α)(θ)

w² = 0² + (2×164.2)(74.2)

w = 156.1 rad/s = 24.8 rev/s

Hope this Helps!!!

An appliance with a 20.0-2 resistor has a power rating of 15.0 W. Find the maximum current which can flow safely through the app
Alenkinab [10]

Q: An appliance with a 20 Ω resistor has a power rating of 15.0 W. Find the maximum current which can flow safely through the appliance g

Answer:

0.866 A

Explanation:

From the question,

P = I²R............................. Equation 1

Where P = power, I = maximum current, R = Resistance.

Make I the subject of the equation

I = √(P/R).................... Equation 2

Given: P = 15 W, R = 20 Ω

Substitute these values into equation 2

I = √(15/20)

I = √(0.75)

I = 0.866 A

Hence the maximum current that can flow safely through the appliance = 0.866 A

Velocity of a wave is the. (a) Wavelength x frequency (b) Wave number x frequency (c) Time period x phase (d) None
Elden [556K]

Answer:

option (a)

Explanation:

Wavelength is defined as the distance traveled by the wave in one complete oscillation.

The number of oscillations completed in one second is called frequency.

The relation for the wave velocity is given by

wave velocity = frequency x wavelength

Una persona tiene 45 años de edad y una masa de 78 kg. ¿Cuántas horas ha vivido? ¿Cuál
Pavel [41]

Answer:

I will answer this in English.

He has 45 years.

a year has 365 days.

a day has 24 hours.

So he has:

45*365*24  hours = 394,200 hours.

His mass is 78 kg,

And we know that 1 slug = 1lbf*ft/s^2

Then, the first step is transform the 78 kg into lbf.

1kg = 2.2 lbf.

then 78kg = 78*2.2 lbf = 171.6lbf.

Now, the weight is m*g, where m is the mass and g is the gravitational acceleration, in this case the gravitational acceleration in ft/s^2 is:

g =  32.2 ft/s^2

Then the weight in slugs is:

W = 32.2ft/s^2*171.6lbf = 5,525.5 slugs
