Complete Question
One day, after pulling down your window shade, you notice that sunlight is passing through a pinhole in the shade and making a small patch of light on the far wall. Having recently studied optics in your physics class, you're not too surprised to see that the patch of light seems to be a circular diffraction pattern. It appears that the central maximum is about 2 cm across, and you estimate that the distance from the window shade to the wall is about 5 m.
Required:
Estimate the diameter of the pinhole.
Answer:
The diameter is 
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The central maxima is 
The distance from the window shade is 
The average wavelength of the sun is mathematically evaluated as
Generally the visible light spectrum has a wavelength range between 400 nm to 700 nm
So the initial wavelength of the sun is 
and the final wavelength is 
Substituting this into the above equation
The diameter is evaluated as
substituting values

The object D is made up of material Lead. The correct option is D.
<h3>What is specific heat?</h3>
The specific heat is the amount of heat required to change the temperature by 1°C. It is denoted by C.
Two 1-kg objects, C and D, increase in temperature by the same amount, but the thermal energy transfer of object C is greater than the thermal energy transfer of object D. The object C has a specific heat of 235 J/kg-K.
Q = m C ΔT
Qc > Qd
The energy transfer is proportional to specific heat.
Specific heat of D must be less. The possible material with specific heat less than the given value is for Lead material.
Thus, the correct option is D.

<span>Diamond slowdown light more than Quartz , because diamonds have a greater index of refraction. Light will bend when its move from one medium to another. The Index of Refraction of Material is found by comparing the speed of light in their respective mediums.</span>
Answer:
Multiply the air pressure by the area of the tabletop.
Explanation:
The relationship between pressure, force and area is given by:
where in this case, p is the air pressure, F is the force exerted and A the area of the tabletop. By re-arranging the equation, we can solve for F, the force exerted:
So, the correct answer is:
The force exerted on the tabletop can be found by multiplying the air pressure by the area of the tabletop.
