Answer:
Option d
The minimum angular separation between two objects that the Hubble Space Telescope can resolve is
.
Explanation:
The resulting image in a telescope that will be gotten from an object is a diffraction pattern instead of a perfect point (point spread function (PSF)).
That diffraction pattern is gotten because the light encounters different obstacles on its path inside the telescope (interacts with the walls and edges of the instrument).
The diffraction pattern is composed by a central disk, called Airy disk, and diffraction rings.
The angular resolution is defined as the minimal separation at which two sources can be resolved one for another, or in other words, when the distance between the two diffraction pattern maxima is greater than the radius of the Airy disk.
The angular resolution can be determined in analytical way by means of the Rayleigh criterion.
(1)
Where
is the wavelength and D is the diameter of the telescope.
Notice that it is necessary to express the wavelength in the same units than the diameter.
⇒
Finally, equation 1 can be used.
Hence, the minimum angular separation between two objects that the Hubble Space Telescope can resolve is
.
Answer:
<u><em>A.)</em></u> The particles that make up material A have more mass than the
particles that make up material B.
HOPE that helps!!! :)
Steel materials produce less vibrations whilst less dense and more malleable parts produce more vibrations, e.g. the wooden part of the coaster itself.

The situation presented above is possible because the outlets could be operating in a parallel circuit. <span>Electrical outlets in a house maintain a steady voltage, even when the amount of resistance on them changes because it operates with a parallel circuit wherein voltage is constant even if resistance changes.</span>
