A 20. cm telescope collects how many times the light collected by a 5.0 cm telescope?

The light collected by a telescope is proportional to the area of the telescope.

The area of a telescope is π * (Diameter / 2) ^2 = π * (Diameter)^2 / 4.

So, for the 20.0 cm telescope, area = π * (20.0cm)^2 / 4.

And for the 5.0 cm telescope, area = π * (5.0 cm)^2 / 4

So, divide both expressions to find the ratio of collection of light of one telescope to the other:=> (20.0)^2 / (5.0)^2 = (20.0 / 5.0)^2 = 4^2 = 16

Then, the 20.0 cm telescope collects 16 times the ligth that the 5.0 cm telescope collect.    <--- answer

Sidana [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Initial angular velocity ω₁ = 0 , final angular velocity ω₂ = 75.9 rad /s

angle rotated =  θ

= 37 x 2π

= 74 π

The formula for angular velocity

ω₂² =  ω₁² + 2αθ , α is angular acceleration

75.9² = 0 + 2 α x 74 π

α = 75.9² / 2  x 74 π

= 12.396 rad / s²

Is this true or false ethics deals with morals and values and can be measured and tested using the scientific method.
sammy [17]

This is false. Even though the first part is true, the second isn't because morals and values are simply widely accepted opinions that most humans have, and you can't test opinions with the scientific method, only facts!

GalinKa [24]

Answer:

a = 52s²

Explanation:

<u>How to find acceleration</u>

Acceleration (a) is the change in velocity (Δv) over the change in time (Δt), represented by the equation a = Δv/Δt. This allows you to measure how fast velocity changes in meters per second squared (m/s^2). Acceleration is also a vector quantity, so it includes both magnitude and direction.

<u>Solve</u>

We know initial velocity (u = 16), velocity (v = 120) and acceleration (a = ?)

We first need to solve the velocity equation for time (t):

v = u + at

v - u = at

(v - u)/a = t

Plugging in the known values we get,

t = (v - u)/a

t = (16 m/s - 120 m/s) -2/s2

t = -104 m/s / -2 m/s2

t = 52 s
