A wildlife photographer uses a moderate telephoto lens of focal length 135 mm and maximum aperture f/4.00 to photograph a bear t

hat is 12.0m away. Assume the wavelength is 550 nm.
A). What is the width of the smallest feature on the bear that this lens can resolve if it is opened to its maximum aperture?
B).If, to gain depth of field, the photographer stops the lens down to f /22.0, what would be the width of the smallest resolvable feature on the bear?

Answer:

<h3>(A) The width x = 0.24 \times 10^{-3} m</h3><h3>(B) The new width is 1.32 \times 10^{-3} m</h3>

Explanation:

Given :

Focal length f =   135 \times 10^{-3}  m

Maximum aperture D = \frac{f}{4}

Wavelength \lambda = 550 \times 10^{-9} m

(A)

From rayleigh criterion,

  \theta = \frac{1.22 \lambda }{D}

  \theta =\frac{ 1.22 \times 550 \times 10^{-9}  }{33.75 \times 10^{-3} }

  \theta = 1.98 \times 10^{-5} rad

From angle formula,

  x = R\theta

Where R = 12 m ( given in example )

x = 12 \times 1.98 \times 10^{-5} m

x = 23.76 \times 10^{-5}

x = 0.24 \times 10^{-3} m

(B)

We know that \theta is proportional to the x and inversely proportional to the D

so we write the new width, here x is 5.5 times larger than above case

   x = 0.24 \times  10^{-3}  \times \frac{22}{4}

   x = 1.32 \times 10^{-3} m

A 10 kg mass car initially at rest on a horizontal track is pushed by a horizontal force of 10 N magnitude. If we neglect the fr
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

50 m

Explanation:

F = ma

10 N = (10 kg) a

a = 1 m/s²

Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 1 m/s²

t = 10 s

Find: Δx

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (0 m/s) (10 s) + ½ (1 m/s²) (10 s)²

Δx = 50 m

The ideal mechanical advantage of a pulley system is equal to the?
marishachu [46]

Answer: The correct answer is "Number of rope segments supporting the load".

Explanation:

Mechanical advantage: It is defined as the ratio of the force produced by a machine to the force applied on the machine. The ideal mechanical advantage of a machines is mechanical advantage in the absence of friction.

The ideal mechanical advantage of a pulley system is equal to the number of rope segments which is supporting the load. More the rope segments, It is more helpful to do the lifting the work.

It means that less force is needed for this task to complete.

Therefore, the correct option is (C).
