It's hard to tell exactly what's happening in that 110 cm that you marked over the wave. What is under the ends of the long arrow ? How many complete waves ? I counted 4.5 complete waves ... maybe ?

If there are 4.5 complete waves in 110cm, then the length of 1 wave is (110/4.5)=24.44cm.

Frequency = speed/wavelength

Frequency = 2m/s /0.2444m

Frequency = 8.18 Hz

A low orbit satellite at 100 km altitude had a camera that resolved a car location to within 0.3 meter. Find the minimum diamete

NeX [460]

Answer:

Minimum diameter of the camera lens is 22.4 cm

The focal length of the camera's lens is 300cm

Explanation:

y = Resolve distance = 0.3 m

h = Height of satellite = 100 km

λ = Wavelength = 550 nm

Angular resolution

$tan\theta\approx \theta =\frac{y}{h}\\\Rightarrow \theta=\frac{0.3}{100\times 10^3}=3\times 10^{-6}$

From Rayleigh criteria

$sin\theta=1.22\frac{\lambda}{D}\\\Rightarrow D=1.22\frac{\lambda}{sin\theta}\\\Rightarrow D=1.22\frac{550\times 10^{-9}}{sin3\times 10^{-6}}=0.2236\ m=22.4\ cm$

Minimum diameter of the camera lens is 22.4 cm

Relation between resolvable feature, focal length and angular resolution

$d=f\Delta \theta\\\Rightarrow f=\frac{d}{\Delta \theta}\\\Rightarrow f=\frac{9\times 10^{-6}}{3\times 10^{-6}}=3\ m=300\ cm$

The focal length of the camera's lens is 300cm

How often do spring and neap tides occur

iragen [17]

Answer:

Without thought to the season, Spring tides happen [two times] every [lunar] month the whole year. When the Sun and the Moon are quadratic, Neap tides also happen two times during a month.

Here is a picture to help show you:

(With the Spring tide, the moon is toward the "left" or "right" of the Earth. With the Neap tide, the moon is "above" or "below/under" the Earth. It's kind of hard to explain).
