Answer:

polystyrene is a good insulater so less heat will escape from the cup and it will keep it warm.

the cup helps it become more insulated

The diffraction limit is a limit on: The diffraction limit is a limit on: A telescope's size. A telescope's angular resolution.

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

A telescope's angular resolution.

Explanation:

Diffraction limit is a minimum angular separation of two sources and it can be distinguished by the telescope. This angle is known as the diffraction limit. It is proportional to the wavelength of light and it has an inverse relation with the diameter of the telescope. Mathematically it is defined as

θ = 1.22λ/d

where θ is the angle, λ wavelength and d is the diameter of the objective mirror (lenz).

Two astronauts, each with a mass of 50 kg, are connected by a 7 m massless rope. Initially they are rotating around their center

kiruha [24]

Answer:

The angular velocity is $w_f = 1.531 \ rad/ s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of each astronauts is $m = 50 \ kg$

The initial distance between the two astronauts $d_i = 7 \ m$

Generally the radius is mathematically represented as $r_i = \frac{d_i}{2} = \frac{7}{2} = 3.5 \ m$

The initial angular velocity is $w_1 = 0.5 \ rad /s$

The distance between the two astronauts after the rope is pulled is $d_f = 4 \ m$

Generally the radius is mathematically represented as $r_f = \frac{d_f}{2} = \frac{4}{2} = 2\ m$

Generally from the law of angular momentum conservation we have that

$I_{k_1} w_{k_1}+ I_{p_1} w_{p_1} = I_{k_2} w_{k_2}+ I_{p_2} w_{p_2}$

Here $I_{k_1 }$ is the initial moment of inertia of the first astronauts which is equal to $I_{p_1}$ the initial moment of inertia of the second astronauts So

$I_{k_1} = I_{p_1 } = m * r_i^2$

Also $w_{k_1 }$ is the initial angular velocity of the first astronauts which is equal to $w_{p_1}$ the initial angular velocity of the second astronauts So

$w_{k_1} =w_{p_1 } = w_1$

Here $I_{k_2 }$ is the final moment of inertia of the first astronauts which is equal to $I_{p_2}$ the final moment of inertia of the second astronauts So

$I_{k_2} = I_{p_2} = m * r_f^2$

Also $w_{k_2 }$ is the final angular velocity of the first astronauts which is equal to $w_{p_2}$ the final angular velocity of the second astronauts So
