________ states that the number of transistors per square inch on an integrated chip doubles every 18 months.

Listed following are the names and mirror diameters for six of the world’s greatest reflecting telescopes used to gather visible

ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

Large binocular telescope, Keck 1 telescope, Hobby-Ebberly telescope, Subaru telescope, Gemini North telescope, Magellan 2 telescope

Explanation:

How much light a telescope can collect depends on its diameter, since in a bigger area more photons will be collected.

Remember that in a circle the area is defined as:

$A = \pi r^{2}$ (1)

Where A is the area and r is its radius.

However, the radius can be determined by means of its diameter.

$d = 2r$

$r = \frac{d}{2}$ (1)

Where d is its diameter.

An example of this is when a person is collecting raindrops with a bucket and with a cup. Since the bucket has a bigger area than the cup, it will collect more raindrops by unit of time. In this scenario the raindrops represent the photons.

To determine the light collecting area of each telescope, equation 2 will be replaced in equation 1.

$A = \pi (\frac{d}{2})^{2}$ (3)

Case for Large binocular telescope:

$A_{mirror1} = \pi (\frac{8.4m}{2})^{2}$

$A_{mirror1} = 55.41m$

For the second mirror will be the same value

$A = A_{mirror1}+A_{mirror2}$

$A = 55.41m+55.41m$

$A= 110.82m$

Case for Keck 1 telescope:

$A = \pi (\frac{10m}{2})^{2}$

$A = 78.53m$

Case for Hobby-Ebberly telescope:

$A = \pi (\frac{9.2m}{2})^{2}$

$A = 66.47m$

Case for Subaru telescope:

$A = \pi (\frac{8.3m}{2})^{2}$

$A = 54.10m$

Case for Gemini North telescope:

$A = \pi (\frac{8m}{2})^{2}$

$A = 50.26m$

Case for Magellan 2 telescope:

$A = \pi (\frac{6.5m}{2})^{2}$

$A = 33.18m$

Hence, they may be rank in the following way:

Large binocular telescope, Keck 1 telescope, Hobby-Ebberly telescope, Subaru telescope, Gemini North telescope, Magellan 2 telescope.

Key term:

Photons: particles that constitute light.

Which kind of road surface is easier to see when driving at night, a pebbled uneven surface or a mirror smooth surface?

pshichka [43]

A pebbled, uneven road would be easier to see at night because it minimizes the reflection of light from car’s light coming in the opposite direction. It is difficult to see when driving on the rainy day because the roadway reflects light from cars coming in the opposite directions.

A 94 g particle undergoes SHM with an amplitude of 8.3 mm, a maximum acceleration of magnitude 7.8 x 103 m/s2, and an unknown ph

Lelechka [254]

Answer:

a) T = 6.49*10^-3 s

b) v = 8 m/s

c) E = 3 J

d) F = 733 N

e) F = 366.5 J

Explanation:

Given

Mass of particle, m = 94 g = 0.094 kg

Amplitude of the particle, A = 8.3 mm = 8.3*10^-3 m

Maximum acceleration of particle, a = 7.8*10^3 m/s²

the equation describing Simple Harmonic Motion is given as

x = A cos (wt +φ)

To fond the acceleration of this relationship, we would have to integrate. Twice, the first would be a Velocity, and the second acceleration that we need.

Velocity = dx/dt = -Aw sin(wt + φ)

Acceleration = d²x/dt = -Aw² cos(wt + φ)

From the question, we were given, magnitude of acceleration to be 7.8*10^3 m/s²

Aw² = 7.8*10^3

w² = 7.8*10^3 / A

w² = 7.8*10^3 / 8.3*10^-3

w² = 939759

w = √939759

w = 969

Recall, T = 2π/w, so that

T = (2 * 3.142) / 969

T = 6.49*10^-3 s

Maximum speed = Aw

Maximum speed = 8.3*10^-3 * 969

Maximum speed = 8.0 m/s

Total mechanical energy oscillator =

mgx + 1/2mx² =

1/2mv(max)² =

1/2 * 0.094 * 8² =

3 J

Maximum displacement

x = A cos(wt + φ)

For x to be maximum here, then cos(wt + φ) Must be equal to 1

Acceleration = d²x/dt² = -Aw²

And force = mass * acceleration

Force = 0.094 * 7.8*10^3

Force = 733 N

x = A cos(wt + φ), where cos(wt + φ) = 1/2

d²x/dt² = -Aw² * 1/2

d²x/dt² = 733 * 0.5

= 366.5 N
