Compare the light gathering power of a 1 meter diameter telescope to that of the human eye ,which has a diameter of roughly 2.5
lesantik [10]

Answer:

The telescope can gather light 1600 times more than the human eyes can!

Explanation:

The light gathering ability of an optical element is directly proportional to its area of opening.

So, in comparing the light gathering abilities for two objects, it is just the ratio of their area of opening.

Let the diameter of the telescope be D = 1 m

And the diameter of the human eyes be d = 2.5 cm = 0.025 m

Light gathering ability of the telescope compared to the eyes = D² ÷ d²

= (D²/d²) = (1²/0.025²) = 1600 times.

The telescope can gather light 1600 times more than the human eyes can!

Hope this Helps!!!

You are conducting an experiment inside a train car that may move along level rail tracks. A load is hung from the ceiling on a
Triss [41]

Here the weight is hung from the thread inside the ceiling of train

now the FBD of train is analysed

We can say

Tcos\theta = mg

Tsin\theta = ma

now by ratio of two equations we have

a = gtan\theta

this shows that train must be in accelerating condition due to which the thread is making an angle with the vertical

now we will have

2 The train is not an inertial frame of reference.

Since train is accelerating so it must be non inertial frame

5 The train may be moving at a constant speed in a circle.

Since its moving in circle so it is in accelerating condition

8 The train must be accelerating.
