Answer:
D) the bending of a wave as it moves around an obstacle or passes through a narrow opening
Explanation:
Even though light travels in straight line, it will bend around objects if their size is comparative to its wavelength. This phenomenon is called diffraction.
Light will also bend if the light travels from one medium to another medium at an angle, but that is called refraction.
Diffraction occurs in one medium. Refraction occurs when light travels from one medium to another.
Given Information:
Magnetic field = B = 1×10⁻³ T
Frequency = f = 72.5 Hz
Diameter of cell = d = 7.60 µm = 7.60×10⁻⁶ m
Required Information:
Maximum Emf = ?
Answer:
Maximum Emf = 20.66×10⁻¹² volts
Explanation:
The maximum emf generated around the perimeter of a cell in a field is given by
Emf = BAωcos(ωt)
Where A is the area, B is the magnetic field and ω is frequency in rad/sec
For maximum emf cos(ωt) = 1
Emf = BAω
Area is given by
A = πr²
A = π(d/2)²
A = π(7.60×10⁻⁶/2)²
A = 45.36×10⁻¹² m²
We know that,
ω = 2πf
ω = 2π(72.5)
ω = 455.53 rad/sec
Finally, the emf is,
Emf = BAω
Emf = 1×10⁻³*45.36×10⁻¹²*455.53
Emf = 20.66×10⁻¹² volts
Therefore, the maximum emf generated around the perimeter of the cell is 20.66×10⁻¹² volts
Explanation:
As per Rayleigh criterion, the angular resolution is given as follows:

From this expression larger the size of aperture, smaller will be the value of angular resolution and hence, better will be the device i.e. precision for distinguishing two points at very high angular difference is higher.
