If you stand up in a big room and echo, your voice will echo from the walls. As long as the room is empty. Since the speed of sound is constant, depending on air density, the more humid the air the faster and farther sound travels. The speed of sound is constant, you could measure the time it takes for your voice to echo off the walls. The same thing happens with Doppler radar, but it’s not voice, it has higher frequency signals.<span> </span>

Doppler Radar uses Doppler Effect as a principle to measure velocities, detect the presence of objects, identify meteorological phenomena and their intensity levels. This radar emits a continuous radio signal that allows the radar to differentiate between objects that are stationary and those in motion. This radar can be used, for example, to measure the speed of a particular object and to indicate its location, so that it is widely used in traffic surveillance.

Doppler radar is the most widely used type of weather radar that is currently of utmost importance for atmospheric monitoring. It is also employed for example in agriculture, air traffic and weather forecasting. Information gathered by radar assists meteorologists in early diagnosis of natural disasters.

Doppler effect, used by these radas, is a physical phenomenon observed in waves emitted or reflected by a source. It is perceived, for example, when listening to the sound of an ambulance passing by an observer. As the ambulance approaches, the tone becomes more and more acute, and as it moves away it becomes more serious. What happens is that we perceive a relative frequency, which is not the same frequency as the wave was emitted.

The Event Horizon Telescope needs a 22 micro-arcsecond resolution to view the event horizon regions around black holes. If the a
likoan [24]

Answer:

14869817.395 m

Explanation:

\theta=22 microarcsecond

λ = Wavelength = 1.3 mm

Converting to radians we get

22\times 10^{-6}\frac{\pi}{180\times 3600}\ radians

From Rayleigh Criterion

\theta=1.22\frac{\lambda}{D}\\\Rightarrow D=1.22\frac{\lambda}{\theta}\\\Rightarrow D=1.22\frac{1.3\times 10^{-3}}{22\times 10^{-6}\frac{\pi}{180\times 3600}}\\\Rightarrow D=14869817.395\ m

Diameter of the effective primary objective is 14869817.395 m

It is not possible to build one telescope with a diameter of 14869817.395 m. But, we need this type of telescope. So, astronomers use an array of radio telescopes to achieve a virtual diameter in order to observe objects that are the size of supermassive black hole's event horizon.

24 POINTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TEA [102]
Potential Energy (Initial one) = m * g * h
P.E. = 60 * 9.8 * 10
P.E. = 5880

Kinetic Energy (Final One) = 1/2 mv²
K.E. = 1/2 * 60 * (10)²
K.E. = 6000/2
K.E. = 3000

Lost Energy = 5880 - 3000 = 2880 J

In short, Your Answer would be 2880 Joules

Hope this helps!
