Which type of telescope focuses star light using mirrors?

1 answer:

Tatiana [17]3 years ago

Coudé telescopes use a convex secondary mirror like a Cassegrain and an angled mirror like a Newtonian reflector to move the light rays to a focal point away from the telescope. This arrangement is useful when optical equipment is being used that is too heavy to mount directly on the telescope.

Determine the amount of torque

malfutka [58]

Answer:

250Nm

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Length of the long pry bar = 1m

Force acting on it = 250N

Angle = 90°

Unknown:

Amount of torque applied = ?

Solution:

Torque is the turning force on a body that causes the rotation of the body.

The formula is given as:

Torque = Force x r Sin Ф

r is the distance

So;

Torque = 250 x 1 x sin 90 = 250Nm

A container of hydrogen gas has a volume of 2.3m³. What is the mass of hydrogen contained? The density of hydrogen = 90kg/m³.

Solnce55 [7]

Mass= volume x density
Mass= 90kg/m^3 x 2.3m^3

Therefore, Mass= 207 kg

A proton is initially moving west at a speed of 1.10 106 m/s in a uniform magnetic field of magnitude 0.281 T directed verticall

kifflom [539]

Answer:

so here it will move in circle with radius 4.06 cm

Explanation:

As we know that proton is moving towards west while the magnetic field is vertically upwards

So here the force on the proton must be perpendicular to the velocity

So here we have

$F = q(\vec v \times \vec B)$

so here we have

$F = qvB sin90$

since force is perpendicular to the velocity so here it must be centripetal force

here we have

$\frac{mv^2}{R} = qvB$

so we have

$R = \frac{mv}{qB}$

$R = \frac{(1.66 \times 10^{-27})(1.10 \times 10^6)}{(1.6 \times 10^{-19})(0.281)}$

$R = 4.06 cm$

so here it will move in circle with radius 4.06 cm
