The indicated data are of clear understanding for the development of Airy's theory. In optics this phenomenon is described as an optical phenomenon in which The Light, due to its undulatory nature, tends to diffract when it passes through a circular opening.
The formula used for the radius of the Airy disk is given by,

Where,
Range of the radius
wavelength
f= focal length
Our values are given by,
State 1:



State 2:



Replacing in the first equation we have:


And also for,


Therefor, the airy disk radius ranges from
to 
Answer:
They can be seen from a distance of 4.372 kilometers.
Explanation:
Using the Reyligh creterion for diffraction through a circular aperture we have
where symbol's have their usual meaning
thus applying values we get


Answer:
The magnitude of the external electric field at P will reduce to 2.26 x 10⁶ N/C, but the direction is still to the right.
Explanation:
From coulomb's law, F = Eq
Thus,
F = E₁q₁
F = E₂q₂
Then
E₂q₂ = E₁q₁

where;
E₂ is the external electric field due to second test charge = ?
E₁ is the external electric field due to first test charge = 4 x 10⁶ N/C
q₁ is the first test charge = 13 mC
q₂ is the second test charge = 23 mC
Substitute in these values in the equation above and calculate E₂.

The magnitude of the external electric field at P will reduce to 2.26 x 10⁶ N/C when 13 mC test charge is replaced with another test charge of 23 mC.
However, the direction of the external field is still to the right.
Answer:
v = 2.82 m/s
Explanation:
For this exercise we can use the conservation of energy relations.
We place our reference system at the point where block 1 of m₁ = 4 kg
starting point. With the spring compressed
Em₀ = K_e + U₂ = ½ k x² + m₂ g y₂
final point. When block 1 has descended y = - 0.400 m
Em_f = K₂ + U₂ + U₁ = ½ m₂ v² + m₂ g y₂ + m₁ g y
as there is no friction, the energy is conserved
Em₀ = Em_f
½ k x² + m₂ g y₂ = ½ m₂ v² + m₂ g y₂ + m₁ g y
½ k x² - m₁ g y = ½ m₂ v²
v² =
let's calculate
v² =
v² = 2.7 + 5.23
v = √7.927
v = 2,815 m / s
using of significant figures
v = 2.82 m/s
The particle discovered in cathode rays was the electron
