Earth's atmosphere blocks many types of light including gamma, x-rays most ultraviolet and infrared. So optical telescopes that use visible light and ultraviolet telescopes that are used to study very hot stars are much less effective on Earth.

A tortoise can move with a speed of 10.0cm/s, while a rabbit can move 10 times faster. In a race, both of them started at the sa
Xelga [282]

Answer:

C. 199.9 s

Explanation:

3 minutes = 3×60 = 180 seconds.

the turtle moves in that time 180×10 = 1800 cm.

in other words the rabbit gave it that much head-start (it does not matter if that was at the begin of in the middle of the race).

the rabbit moves with 10×10cm/s = 100cm/s.

the rabbit needs therefore 1800/100 = 18 seconds for the

1800 cm.

at that time the turtle has added another 18×10 = 180 cm.

for which the rabbit needs 180/100 = 1.8 seconds.

during that time the turtle has added 1.8×10 = 18 cm.

and so on.

in formal mathematics this looks like this :

1800 + 10x = 100x

after x seconds of the rabbit running both will have run the same distance, and it is a tie.

1800 = 90x

x = 20 seconds

so, at that point, the rabbit was actively running for 20 seconds and raced 20×100 = 2000 cm

and the turtle was actively running for 180 + 20 = 200 seconds, and also covered 200×10 = 2000 cm.

but our question tells us that the turtle won by 10 cm.

so, the race was over a little bit before these 200 seconds (for a tie).

this means, the rabbit could not run the last 10 cm for the tie (because the race was over and the turtle had won).

the rabbit would have needed 10/100 seconds for these 10 cm.

as speed = distance/time

we need to divide distance by speed

distance/1 / distance/time

to get time.

so,

10cm/1 / 100cm/s = 10s/100 = 1/10 s

so, we need to deduct this 1/10 s from the 200 seconds of the turtle (and also from the 20 seconds for the rabbit).

the race lasted of course the whole time the turtle was running (while the rabbit was resting, officially still participating in the race with speed 0 for 3 minutes).

and so, the race was 199.9 s long.

A double-slit interference pattern is created by two narrow slits spaced 0.21 mm apart. The distance between the first and the f
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

\lambda =533.6 nm

Explanation:

the slits spacing, d = 0.21 mm

distance of screen, D = 61 cm

The condition for minima is given as

dsin(\theta) = \left ( n+\frac{1}{2} \right )\lambda

So, first minima, n = 0

dsin(\theta_1) = \frac{1}{2}\lambda

fifth minima, n = 4

dsin(\theta_5) = \frac{9}{2}\lambda

d(sin(\theta_5) -sin(\theta_1))= 4\lambda

For small angle

d(tan(\theta_5) -tan(\theta_1))= 4\lambda

From the figure:

d(\frac{y_5}{D}-\frac{y_1}{D})= 4\lambda

\frac{d}{D} (y_5-y_1) = 4\lambda

\lambda = \frac{d}{4D} (y_5-y_1)

\lambda = \frac{0.021}{4(61)} (6.2 \times 10^{-3})

\lambda =533.6 nm

As an acapulco cliff diver drops to the water from a height of 42.0 m, his gravitational potential energy decreases by 27,500 j.
seraphim [82]

We know that potential energy is simply energy due to position which has the formula:

PE = mass * gravity * height

We know that mass * gravity is weight, therefore:

PE = weight * height

27500 J = weight * 42 m

<span>weight = 654.76 Newtons</span>
