Answer:

14°C

Explanation:

Temperature is the degree of hotness or coldness of an object. It is measured using an instrument called THERMOMETER. There are different units of measuring temperature which are interconvertible. The units are Fahrenheit (°F), Celsius (°C), Kelvin (K) etc.

In this question, the thermometer reads 57°F. To convert this temperature reading to °C, we use the formula:

[°C] = ([°F] − 32) × 5/9

Hence,

[°C] = (57− 32) × 5/9

[°C] = (25) × 5/9

[°C] = 125/9

= 13.888888

Hence, 57°F approximated to the nearest whole number will be 14°C.

The Hubble Space Telescope in orbit above the Earth has a 2.4 m circular aperture. The telescope has equipment for detecting ult
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

Option d

The minimum angular separation between two objects that the Hubble Space Telescope can resolve is 4.8x10^{-8}rad.  

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.          

\theta = 1.22\frac{\lambda}{D}  (1)

Where \lambda 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.

\lambda = 95nm \cdot \frac{1x10^{-9}m}{1nm} ⇒ 9.5x10^{-8}m

Finally, equation 1 can be used.

\theta = 1.22(\frac{9.5x10^{-8}m}{2.4m})

\theta = 4.8x10^{-8}rad              

Hence, the minimum angular separation between two objects that the Hubble Space Telescope can resolve is 4.8x10^{-8}rad.

If you increase the size of the resistor and keep the voltage the same, what will happen to the current
Grace [21]

Answer:

If voltage is kept constant across the resistor itself, it' current will reduce. If the resistance is part of oscillator circuit, frequency response will change. If it is in series with capacitor or inductor, it will change the damping effect.
