Answer: the minimum spacing that must be there between two objects on the earth's surface if they are to be resolved as distinct objects by this telescope 6.45 cm
Explanation:
Given that;
diameter of the mirror d = 1.7 m
height h = 180 km = 180 × 10³ m
wavelength λ = 500 nm = 5 × 10⁻⁹ m
Now Angular separation from the peak of the central maximum is expressed as;
sin∅= 1.22 λ / d
sin∅ = (1.22 × 5 × 10⁻⁹) / 1.7
sin∅ = 3.588 × 10⁻⁷
we know that;
sin∅ = object separation / distance from telescope
object separation =
sin∅ × distance from telescope
object separation = 3.588 × 10⁻⁷ × 180 × 10³
object separation =6.45 × 10⁻² m
then we convert to centimeter
object separation = 6.45 cm
Therefore the minimum spacing that must be there between two objects on the earth's surface if they are to be resolved as distinct objects by this telescope 6.45 cm
As per the question the color of laser light is given as red.
If we arrange all the electromagnetic waves in the decreasing order of frequency ,then the electromagnetic spectrum contains gamma ray as the first which is followed by all other electromagnetic waves according to their frequency.
The visible light ranges from 400 nm to 700 nm which contains sunlight i.e white colors with it's constituent colors starting from violet to red. The red color is the longest wavelength part of the visible region.
The wavelength of visible light is longer than ultraviolet wave but smaller than infrared radiation. Except the bisible region,the color of radiation is invisible to eye.
As per the question the color of emiited laser radiation is red .Hence it must lie in the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum.
In the experiment of free fall bob released a bag of mass 1 lb
so here we can say that initial speed of the bag is Zero
time taken by the bag to free fall is given as
t = 1.5 s
also the acceleration of free fall is given as
a = 9.8 m/s^2
now we will use kinematics equation here for finding the distance of free fall




so the bag will fall down by total distance of 11.025 m from its initial released position.
