An experiment is set up to test the angular resolution of an optical device when red light (wavelength ????r ) shines on an aper
Neko [114]

Explanation:

As per Rayleigh criterion, the angular resolution is given as follows:

\theta=\frac{1.22 \lambda}{D}

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.

Given a particle that has the velocity v(t) = 3 cos(mt) = 3 cos (0.5t) meters, a. Find the acceleration at 3 seconds. b. Find th
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )  V = 3 cos(0.5t)

differentiating with respect to t

dv /dt = -3 x .5 sin0.5t

= -1.5 sin0.5t.

acceleration = - 1.5 sin 0.5t

when t = 3 s

acceleration = - 1.5 sin 1.5

= - 1.496 ms⁻²

v = 3 cos.5t

b )  dx/dt = 3 cos 0.5 t

dx = 3 cos 0.5 t dt

integrating on both sides

x = 3 sin .5t / .5

x = 6 sin0.5t

At t = 2 s

x = 6 sin 1

x = 5.05 m

In physics, why would an equation like y=mx+b be plotted as a straight line rather than as a parabola, as is done in math?
notka56 [123]

Answer:

Explanation:

In Both Physics and Math

y=mx+b is plotted as straight line where

m=slope of line

b=intercept on Y-axis

whereas Equation of parabola is something like this

y^2=4ax

or

x^2=4ay

Math is a tool to solve Physics problems so equations are same in math and physics
