The Hubble Space Telescope has an aperture of 2.4 m and focuses visible light (400-700 nm). The Arecibo radio telescope in Puert

o Rico is 305 m (1000 ft) in diameter (it is built in a mountain valley) and focuses radio waves of wavelength 75 cm.
Under optimal viewing conditions, what is the smallest crater that each of these telescopes could resolve on our moon?

Answer:

y_{hubble} = 77\ \ m

y_{aceribo} = 1.1*10^6 \ \ m

Explanation:

what is the smallest crater that each of these telescopes could resolve on our moon?

For moon ;

s = 3.8 × 10 ⁸ m

y = 1.22 λs/D

where;

λ = 400 nm = 400× 10 ⁻⁹

D = 2.4 m

The smallest crater for the hubble space is calculated as follows:

y_{hubble} = 1.22*400*10^{-9}*3.8*10^8/2.4

y_{hubble} = 77\ \ m

For Aceribo ;

y = 1.22 λs/D

where :

λ = 75 cm = 0.75 m

D = 305 m

y_{acerbo} = 1.22*0.75 *3.8*10^8/305

y_{aceribo} = 1.1*10^6 \ \ m

The world’s longest organ pipe, in the boardwalk hall auditorium in atlantic city, is 64 feet long. what is the fundamental freq
zepelin [54]

The fundamental frequency of this open-open pipe is 8.82 Hz

The quantity of waves that pass a set location in a predetermined period of time is known as frequency. Frequency is the number of full cycles per second in the alternating current direction for an oscillating or fluctuating current. The hertz, also known as Hz, is the accepted unit of frequency.

The temporal rate of change observed in oscillatory and periodic phenomena, such as mechanical vibrations, audio signals (sound), radio waves, and light, is specified by the frequency, an essential parameter in science and engineering.

Assume vs = 344 m/s

f1 = vs/2L

   = 344 m/s/ 2∙64 ft/(3.281 ft/m)

   = 8.82 Hz

A proton is accelerated from rest through a potential difference V0 and gains a speed v0. If it were accelerated instead through
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the charge on proton be q .

energy gain by proton in a field having potential difference of V₀

= V₀ q

Due to gain of energy , its kinetic energy becomes 1/2 m v₀²

where m is mass and v₀ is velocity of proton

V₀ q = 1/2 m v₀²

In the second case , gain of energy in electrical field

= 2 V₀q , if v be the velocity gained in the second case

2 V₀q = 1/2 m v²

1/2 m v² = 2 V₀q = 2 x 1/2 m v₀²

mv² = 2  m v₀²

v = √2 v₀

The electric field strength in the space between two closely spaced parallel disks is 1.0 10^5 N/C. This field is the result of
alex41 [277]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the capacitance in the disks, the difference of the potential and the load in the disc.

The capacitance can be expressed in terms of the Area, the permeability constant and the diameter:

C = \frac{\epsilon_0 A}{d}

Where,

\epsilon_0 = Permeability constant

A = Cross-sectional Area

d = Diameter

Potential difference between the two disks,

V = Ed

Where,

E = Electric field

d = diameter

Q = Charge on the disk equal to \rightarrow Q=ne=(3.9*10^9)(1.6*10^{-19})= 6.24*10^{-10}C

Through the value found and the expression given for capacitance and potential, we can define the electric charge as

Q = CV

Q = \frac{\epsilon A}{d}(Ed)

Q = \epsilon_0 AE

Q = \epsilon_0 \pi(\frac{d}{2})^2E

Q = \frac{\epsilon \pi d^2E}{4}

Re-arranging the equation to find the diameter of the disks, the equation will be:

d = \sqrt{\frac{4D}{\epsilon_0 \pi E}}

Replacing,

d = \sqrt{\frac{4(6.24*10^{-10})}{(8.85*10^{-12})\pi(1*10^{5})}}

d = 0.0299m

Therefore the diameter of the disks is 0.03m
