A series of optical telescopes produced an image that has a resolution of about 0.00350 arc second.
Mila [183]

Answer:

The smallest diameter is D =122 \ m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

       The resolution of the telescope is \theta  =  0.00350 \ arc \ second

           The wavelength is  \lambda = 1.70 \mu m = 1.70 *10^{-6} \ m

From the question we are told that

        1 arc \ sec = \frac{1}{3600^o}

So      0.00350 \ arc \ second = x

Therefore

             x =  0.00350  *  \frac{1}{3600 }

              x = ( 9.722*10^{-7} )^o

Now  1^o  =  \frac{\pi}{180}

   So  (9.722*10^{-7})^o =  \theta

  =>    \theta  =  (9.722*10^{-7}) * \frac{\pi}{180}

           \theta  =  1.69*10^{-8} rad

The smallest diameter is mathematically represented  as

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

substituting values

           D = \frac{1.22 * 1.7 *10^{-6}} {1.69 *10^{-8}  }

           D =122 \ m

During a race, a runner runs at a speed of 6 m/s. 2 seconds later, she is running at a speed of 10 m/s. What is the runner’s acc
Lapatulllka [165]
Let's calculate the average acceleration. It is the rate of changing speeds. Hence, we need to calculate the difference of speeds. 10-6=4 m/s. The rate is now \frac{4m/s}{2s} =2m/s^2.
In general, the formula for the mean acceleration between two times 1 and 2 is given by:
\frac{u_2-u_1}{T} where v1 and v2 are the speeds at the respective points and T is the time interval between them.

A complete circuit is often referred to as a(n) _______ circuit
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

Complete Circuit

Explanation:

A circuit is defined as a completed path for voltage to flow from a source of voltage through a load and back to the source. A complete circuit or path is often referred to as a(n) ? circuit. Before current can flow in a circuit, the circuit must be closed. 100% right

two teams are playing tug of war. team a pulls to the right with a force of 450n .team b pulls to the left with a force of 415 n
Alex_Xolod [135]

Explanation:

It is given that, two teams are playing tug of war.

Force applied by Team A, F_A=450\ N

Force applied by Team B, F_B=415\ N

We need to find the net force acting on the rope. It is equal to :

F_{net}=F_A-F_B

F_{net}=450-415

F_{net}=35\ N

So, the net force acting on the rope is 35 N and it is acting toward right. Hence, this is the required solution.

What has been gravity's apparent role in our solar system so far? Focus on the formation of planets, individual orbits, alignmen
masya89 [10]

Gravity is one of the significant forces of the universe. It is the force that draws other objects closer to the center of another object. The bigger the object, the higher its force of gravity and nearby objects are accelerated towards the big mass.

It is this force of gravity that keeps the planets in the solar system orbiting around the sun. The suns gravitational pull is stronger than those of the planets hence pulls the planets on their orbits around the star. Gravity also played a part in the formation of the planets. Gravity caused the condensation of dust and rocks into a mass that continually attracted more matter as it gained mass (due to gaining more associated gravitational pull).
