Answer:

Gran Telescopio Canarias

Explanation:

There are numerous giant telescopes all over the world which give us amazingly details data of the Universe. These work in various wavelengths. Talking about the telescopes which operates in visible wavelengths, the largest operational telescope will be Gran Telescopio Canarias.  This telescope has an aperture of 10.4m. It is situated in Canary Island, Spain.

In future larger telescopes such as Thirty Meter Telescope and EELT will will make it look like a small telescope.

A 4 kg billiard ball moving on a horizontal surface has a speed of 16 m/s when it strikes a horizontal coiled spring is brought
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

spring constant of the spring is 1820.44 N/m

Explanation:

given data

ball mass = 4 kg

speed = 16 m/s

distance = 0.75 m

to find out

spring constant of the spring

solution

we know that kinetic energy of ball = energy store in spring as compression

so we can express it as

0.5 × m × v² = 0.5 × k × x²    ....................1

so put here value we get spring constant k

m × v² =  k × x²

4 × 16² =  k × 0.75²

solve it we get

k  =  1820.44 N/m

so spring constant of the spring is 1820.44 N/m

A 9.0 volt battery is connected to four resistors in a parallel circuit. The resistors have 7.0 Ω, 5.0 Ω, 4.0 Ω, and 2.0 Ω respe
Lynna [10]
The total resistance is the reciprocal of (1/7+1/5+1/4+1/2) = 0.915 ohm. The battery voltage makes no difference. It would be 0.915 ohm even if the resistors were connected in parallel and just laying in the drawer.

A vector B , with a magnitude of 8.0 m, is added to a vector A , which lies along an x axis. The sum of these two vectors is a t
Paul [167]

Answer:

the magnitude of A is 3.577

Explanation:

According to the question it is given that there is a magnitude of 8.0 m that added to the vector A that lies on x axis also the sum of two vectors would be third vector by considering the y axis and the magnitude is the twice of the magnitude B

The computation of the magnitude of A is shown below:

A \hat{i} +  B  = 2A \hat{j}\\\\A \hat{i} +  8  = 2A \hat{j}\\\\8 = 2A \hat{j} - A \hat{i}\\\\\mid8\mid = \sqrt{(2A \hat{j})^2 + (- A \hat{i})^2} \\\\8 = \sqrt{5A} \\\\A = \frac{8}{\sqrt{5} }

A = 3.577

Hence, the magnitude of A is 3.577
