What do we mean by the diffraction limit of a telescope? What do we mean by the diffraction limit of a telescope? It is the maxi

mum size to which any telescope can be built. It describes the farthest distance to which the telescope can see. It describes the maximum exposure time for images captured with the telescope. It is the best angular resolution the telescope could achieve with perfect optical quality and in the absence of atmospheric distortion.

Answer:

It is the best angular resolution the telescope could achieve with perfect optical quality and in the absence of atmospheric distortion.

Explanation:

When looking through a telescope or microscope due to imperfections of the lenses or misalignment, two sources may appear. The angular space between these two sources can be found by calculating the wavelength of the light observed divided by the diameter of the telescope.

1. A dog of mass 5 kg jumps on a table of mass 30 kg. As the dog walks around on the table, what is the average force that the t
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

50N

The table is managing to keep the dog up, the dog is not moving up or down so the force that the table applies to the dog must be equal to the dogs weight - I draw this conclusion from Newton's 3rd law.

W= mg

W = 5 × 9.8

W = 49N

round to.one significant figure = 50N
