Angular resolution is given by:

Ф = 1.22(y/D) radians

Where y = wavelength, D = Aperture diameter

Substituting for the values given in the current scenario;

Ф = 1.22*(4.80*10^-7)/2.40 = 2.44*10^-7 Radians

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

the answer is D

Explanation:

Since the velocity of the object is the derivative of the position graph, the area under the line in the velocity vs. time graph is the displacement of the object.

A hockey puck is sliding across a frozen pond with an initial speed of 9.5 m/s. It comes to rest after sliding a distance of 37.
Bond [772]

Answer:

<h3>The coefficient of kinetic friction between the puck and the ice is \mu _{k} = 0.12</h3>

Explanation:

Given :

Initial speed  v_{o} = 9.5 \frac{m}{s}

Displacement x = 37.4 m

From the kinematics equation,

  v^{2} - v^{2} _{o}  = 2ax

Where v^{2}   = final velocity, in our example it is zero (v =0), a = acceleration.

   a =- \frac{90.25}{ 2 \times 37.4}

   a =- 1.21 \frac{m}{s^{2} }

From the formula of friction,

  F =- \mu _{k } N

Minus sign represent friction is oppose the motion

Where N = mg ( normal reaction force )

 ma = -\mu _{k}  m g                                                  ( ∵ g = 9.8 \frac{m}{s^{2} } )

So coefficient of friction,

 \mu_{k} = \frac{1.21}{9.8}

 \mu_{k} = 0.12

Therefore, the coefficient of kinetic friction between the puck and the ice is  \mu _{k} = 0.12 .
