<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Large mirrors are easier to build than large lenses.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>Reflector telescopes have a number of advantages as compared to refracting telescopes and other types of telescopes. </u></em>
  • <em><u>Reflector telescopes do not suffer from chromatic aberration because all wavelengths will reflect off the mirror in the same way. The support for the objective mirror is all along the back side so they can be made very large.</u></em>
  • Additionally, reflector telescopes are cheaper to make than refractors of the same size. Also since in reflector telescopes light is reflecting off the objective, rather than passing through it, only one side of the reflector telescope's objective needs to be perfect.

Suppose that you needed to make a pen for some small animals. You have 12 m of fencing. You decide to make a circular pen, becau
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

1.909 m

Explanation:

Length of fence = 12 m

r = Radius of circle made by the provided fence

Cirumference of a circle is given by

C=2\pi r

The circumference of the circle will be equal to the length of the fence

2\pi r=12

\\\Rightarrow r=\dfrac{12}{2\pi}

\\\Rightarrow r=1.909\ m

The radius of the fence is 1.909 m

Imagine you are riding on a yacht in the ocean and traveling at 20 mph. You then hit a golf ball at 100 mph from the deck of the
Whitepunk [10]

Before solving this question, first we have to understand the special theory of relative.

As per classical mechanics, the velocity of light will be different in different frame of reference. The light moves in the ether medium which exists every where in the entire universe.

Let us consider a body which moves with a velocity v. Let light is coming along the direction of the body. As per classical mechanics,the velocity of light with respect to the body will be [ c-v].

Let us consider that light is coming from opposite direction. Hence, the velocity of light with respect to the observer will be c+v.

From above we see that velocity of light is different in both the cases which is wrong.

As per Einstein's special theory of relativity, the velocity of light will be same in every frame of reference i.e c=300000 km/s.

As per the question ,the space craft is moving with a velocity 0.1 c.

We are asked to calculate the velocity of the light with respect to an observer present in Mars.

Considering Einstein's theory of relativity, the velocity of light will be c [300000 km/s] with respect to the person in Mars.
