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

Help quick physics area question
zlopas [31]

Answer: The area of brick in contact with the floor is 1539 cm^{3}.

Explanation:

Given: Length = 19 cm

Width = 9 cm

Height = 9 cm

As the brick is rectangular in shape. Hence, its area will be calculated as follows.

Area = length \times width  \times height

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

Area = length \times width  \times height\\= 19 cm \times 9 cm \times 9 cm\\= 1539 cm^{3}

Thus, we can conclude that area of brick in contact with the floor is 1539 cm^{3}.

Which of the following describes the relationship of conductance to a conductor?
Brilliant_brown [7]
<span>The answer is The conductance of a conductor is inversely proportional to the cross-sectional area of the conductor.</span>  <span>Conductance is directly related to the ease offered by any material to the passage of electric current. Conductance is the opposite of resistance. The higher the conductance, the lower the resistance and vice versa, the greater the resistance, the less conductance, so both are inversely proportional</span>

Discuss why Wolpert says we have a brain.
ycow [4]

Answer:

“We have a brain for one reason and one reason only, and that's to produce adaptable and complex movements,” stated Wolpert, Director of the Computational and Biological Learning Lab at the University of Cambridge. ... The evidence for this is in how well we've learned to mimic our movements using computers and robots.
