What are the approximate dimensions of the smallest object on Earth that astronauts can resolve by eye when they are orbiting 27
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

   s_400 = 16.5 m , s_700 = 29.4 m

Explanation:

The limit of the human eye's solution is determined by the diffraction limit that is given by the expression

                   θ = 1.22 λ / D

where you lick the wavelength and D the mediator of the circular aperture.

In our case, the dilated pupil has a diameter of approximately 8 mm = 8 10-3 m and the eye responds to a wavelength between 400 nm and 700 nm.

by introducing these values ​​into the formula

                 

λ = 400 nm      θ = 1.22 400 10⁻⁹ / 8 10⁻³ = 6 10⁻⁵ rad

λ = 700 nm     θ = 1.22 700 10⁻⁹ / 8 10⁻³-3 = 1.07 10⁻⁴ rad

Now we can use the definition radians

          θ= s / R

where s is the supported arc and R is the radius. Let's find the sarcos for each case

λ = 400 nm       s_400 = θ R

                         S_400 = 6 10⁻⁵ 275 10³

                         s_400 = 16.5 m

λ = 700 nm s_ 700 = 1.07 10⁻⁴ 275 10³

                          s_700 = 29.4 m

Rutherford tracked the motion of tiny, positively charged particles shot through a thin sheet of gold foil. Some particles
Anna007 [38]

Question

Rutherford tracked the motion of tiny, positively charged particles shot through a thin sheet of gold foil. Some particles  travelled in a straight line and some were deflected at different angles.

Which statement best describes what Rutherford concluded from the motion of the particles?

A) Some particles travelled through empty spaces between atoms and some particles were deflected by electrons.

B) Some particles travelled through empty parts of the atom and some particles were deflected by electrons.

C) Some particles travelled through empty spaces between atoms and some particles were deflected by small areas of high-density positive charge in atoms.

D) Some particles travelled through empty parts of the atom and some particles were deflected by small areas of high-density positive charge in atoms.    

Answer:

 

The right answer is C)    

Explanation:

In the experiment described above, a piece of gold foil was hit with alpha particles, which have a positive charge. Alpha particles <em>α</em> were used because, if the nucleus was positive, then it would deflect the positive particles. The principles of physics posit that electric charges of the same orientation repel.  

So most as expected some of the alpha particles went right through meaning that the gold atoms comprised mostly empty space except the areas that were with a dense population of positive charges. This area became known as the "nucleus".  

Due to the presence of the positive charges in the nucleus, some particles had their paths bent at large angles others were deflected backwards.

Cheers!

A bicycle wheel with a radius of 0.42 m accelerates uniformly for 6.8 s from an initial angular velocity of 5.5 rad/s to a final
Art [367]

Answer:

The angular acceleration required  is 0.1765 rad/ s^2

Explanation:

The radius of the bicycle wheel has a radius of 0.42 m.

The acceleration is for time, t =  6.8 seconds.

Initial angular velocity is given as  \omega_{0}  = 5.5 rad/s

Final angular velocity is given as \omega_{f} = 6.7 rad/s

Therefore from the formula for angular speed we get

\omega_{f} = \omega_{0} + (\frac{d\omega}{dt} \times t),   where t is the time in seconds.

Therefore we get

6.7 =  5.5 + (6.8 × \frac{d\omega}{dt} )

Therefore we get the angular acceleration, \frac{d\omega}{dt} = \frac{(6.7 - 5.5 }{6.8}  = 0.1765 rad/ s^2

The angular acceleration required  is 0.1765 rad/ s^2
