In this problem, the 2.0 nC charges both act forces of equal magnitude on the 1.0 nC charge. Since there x-components are equal but opposite, they cancel out and only the y-components remain and add up. This can be used then to calculate for the magnitude of the total electrostatic force.

F = 2 * q1 * q2 / 4 / pi / eps_0 / r^2 * sqrt(3) / 2
F = 2 * 1.0e-9 * 2.0e-9 / 4 / pi / 8.854e-12 / (1.0e-2)^2 * sqrt(3) / 2
F = 3.11e-4 N

The faintest sound an ear can hear (20 micro-pascals) is roughly ______ times smaller than atmospheric pressure at sea level.

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer: $5.06\times10^{9}$

At sea level, there is one standard atmospheric pressure which is equal to 101.325 kilopascals.

The pressure of faintest sound that a human ear can hear is 20 micro-pascals.

taking the ratio of two:

$\frac {101.325 kilopascals. }{20 micropascals} = \frac {101.325 \times 10^{3}Pa}{20 \times 10^{-6}Pa}$

$=5.06\times10^{9}$

Hence, the atmospheric pressure at sea level is $5.06\times10^{9}$ times greater than the faintest sound that a human ear can hear.

If two point sources of light are being imaged by this telescope, what is the maximum wavelength λ at which the two can be resol

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

The maximum wavelength is 492 nm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Angular separation $\theta=3.0\times10^{-5}\ rad$

Suppose a telescope with a small circular aperture of diameter 2.0 cm.

We need to calculate the maximum wavelength

Using formula of angular separation

$\sin\theta=\dfrac{1.22\lambda}{d}$

$\lambda=\dfrac{d\sin\theta}{1.22}$

Put the value into the formula

$\lambda=\dfrac{2.0\times\sin(3\times10^{-5})}{1.22}$

For small angle $\sin\theta\approx\theta$

$\lambda=\dfrac{0.02\times3\times10^{-5}}{1.22}$

$\lambda=4.92\times10^{-7}\ m$

$\lambda=492\ nm$

Hence, The maximum wavelength is 492 nm.
