Answer:

The distance that you marginally able to discern that there are two headlights rather than a single light source is 6.084 km

Explanation:

Given:

d = distance = 0.679 m

λ = wavelength of the light = 537 nm = 537x10⁻⁹m

dp = pupil diameter = 4.81 mm = 0.00481 m

Question: What distance, in kilometers, are you marginally able to discern that there are two headlights rather than a single light source, dx = ?

For the separation of the peak from the central maximum it is:

sin\theta =\frac{\lambda }{d_{p} } =\frac{537x10^{-9} }{0.00481} =1.116x10^{-4}

In this case, the two small sources of the headlights have the same angle as the images that form inside the eye

d_{x} =\frac{d}{sin\theta } =\frac{0.679}{1.116x10^{-4} } =6.084x10^{3} m=6.084km

AleksandrR [38]
<span>Lifting an object increases the gravitational potential energy of the system. If you release the object, that potential energy will be transformed into the energy of an object in motion which is termed as the kinetic energy as it falls toward earth. Hope this helps.</span>

A plane flies 600 kilometers away from its bad at 400 meters per second then flies back to its base at 600 meters per second. Wh
tester [92]
Seems to me that it flies 400 m/s there and 600 m/s back the same distance.
therefore the average of 400 and 600 is 500 m/s.  The distance is the same so the normal formula of (d2-d1)/(t2-t1) is applicable.

Sergio [31]
Question 8
Silicon is a semi-conductor that are mostly used in electronic devices. From the choices give, silicon is applicable in t<span>ransistor, integrated circuit and diode. But the best answer that suits this question is (B) integrated circuit. 

Question 9
Power is the rate of doing work. It is calculated as,

Power = workdone/time taken to do that work.

In electricity, power = current </span>×voltage
From ohm's law, V=IR
Where I⇒current and 
           R⇒ resistance. 

∴Power = I²R
             = 6²×5
             = 180 Watts
