Answer:

Explanation:The main purpose of astronomical telescope is to make objects from outer space appear as bright, contrasty and large as possible. That defines its three main function: light gathering, resolution and magnification. These are the measure of its efficiency.

If the pendulum is brought on the moon where the gravitational acceleration is about g/6, approximately what will its period now
Andru [333]

Answer:

The new period will be √6 *T

Explanation:

period ,T=2π√(L/g)       ................equation 1

where T is the period on earth

gravitational acceleration on the moon is g/6

T1 = 2π√[L/(g/6)]

T1=2π√(6L/g)               ...............equation 2

divide equation 2 by 1

T1/T =2π√(6L/g)÷2π√(L/g)

T1/T =√(6L/L)

T1/T =√6

T1 = √6 *T

A thermos contains m1 = 0.89 kg of tea at T1 = 31° C. Ice (m2 = 0.075 kg, T2 = 0° C) is added to it. The heat capacity of both w
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

a) T = (m1cT1 + m2cT2 - m2Lf)/(m1c + m2c)

b) T = 295.37 K

Explanation:

Given;

Initial temperature of tea T1 = 31 C

Initial temperature of ice T2 = 0 C

Mass of tea m1 = 0.89 kg

Mass of ice m2 = 0.075kg

The heat capacity of both water and tea c = 4186 J/(kg⋅K)

the latent heat of fusion for water is Lf = 33.5 × 10^4 J/kg

And T = the final temperature of the mixture

Heat loss by tea = heat gained by ice

m1c∆T1 = m2c∆T2 + m2Lf

m1c(T1-T) = m2c(T-T2) + m2Lf

m1cT1 - m1cT = m2cT - m2cT2 + m2Lf

m1cT + m2cT = m1cT1 + m2cT2 - m2Lf

T(m1c + m2c) = m1cT1 + m2cT2 - m2Lf

T = (m1cT1 + m2cT2 - m2Lf)/(m1c + m2c)

Substituting the values;

T = (m1cT1 + m2cT2 - m2Lf)/(m1c + m2c)

T = (0.89×4186×31 + 0.075×4186×0 - 0.075×33.5 × 10^4)/(0.89×4186 + 0.075×4186)

T = 22.37 °C

T = 273 + 22.37 K

T = 295.37 K

What are the first three overtones of a bassoon that has a fundamental frequency of 90.0 Hz? It is open at both ends. (The overt
vekshin1

Answer:

f_{2}=180Hz,f_{3}=270Hz,f_{4}=360Hz\\

Explanation:

Given data

Frequency f=90 Hz

To find

First three overtones of bassoon

Solution

The fundamental frequency of bassoon is found by substituting n=1 in below equation

f=v/λ=nv/2L

f_{1}=v/2L

The first overtone of bassoon is found by substituting n=2

So

f_{2}=2v/2L\\f_{2}=2(v/2L)\\as \\f_{1}=v/2L\\So\\f_{2}=2f_{1}\\f_{2}=2(90Hz)\\f_{2}=180Hz

The second overtone of bassoon is found by substituting n=3

So

f_{3}=3v/2L\\f_{3}=3(v/2L)\\as \\f_{1}=v/2L\\So\\f_{3}=3f_{1}\\f_{3}=3(90Hz)\\f_{3}=270Hz

The third overtone of bassoon is found by substituting n=4

So

f_{4}=4v/2L\\f_{4}=4(v/2L)\\as \\f_{1}=v/2L\\So\\f_{4}=4f_{1}\\f_{4}=4(90Hz)\\f_{4}=360Hz
