Answer:
h=15.27m
Explanation:
Since at maximum height the vertical velocity must be null it's better to use the formula:
We will use this formula for the vertical direction, choosing the upward direction as the positive one, so we have:
or
which for our values is:
Answer:
Because the light reflects multiple times until it gets to the Cassegrain focus.
Explanation:
The Cassegrain design can be seen in a reflecting telescope. In this type of design the light is collected by a concave mirror, and then intercepted by a secondary convex mirror, and sends it down to a central opening in the primary mirror (concave mirror), in which a detector is placed (Cassegrain focus)
Since, the light is reflected many times due to Cassegrain design, that leads to shorter telescopes.
