Technological advances are now making it possible to link visible-light telescopes so that they can achieve the same angular res

olution as a single telescope over 300 meters in size. Part A What is the angular resolution (diffraction limit) of such a system of telescopes for observations at a wavelength of 500 nanometers?

Answer: The angle of resolution =47.05°

Explanation:

The angle of resolution represents the resolve power and precision of optical instruments such as the eye, camera and e en a microscope. It is given by the equation:

Sin A = 1.220(W÷D)

Sin A= 1.220(300÷500)

Sin A = 1.220(0.6)

Sin A = 0.732

A= Sin^-1 0.732

A= 47.05°

Answer:

Explanation:

θ = 1.22 × (λ/D)

where,

θ is the angular resolution (radians) λ is the wavelength of light

= 500 nm

= 0.5 × 10^-6 m

D is the diameter of the lens' aperture.

= 300 m

θ = 1.22 × (0.5/300)

= 0.00203 arcsecond.

DiKsa [7]

Answer:

(a) 1.21 m/s² (b) 1.75 m/s²

Explanation:

The initial speed of the car, u = 17.8 m/s

Case 1.

Final speed of the car, v = 23.5 m/s

Time, t = 4.68-s

Acceleration = rate of change of velocity

a=\dfrac{23.5 -17.8 }{4.68}\\\\a=1.21\ m/s^2

Case 2.

Final speed of the car, v = 15.3 m/s

a=\dfrac{23.5 -15.3}{4.68}\\\\a=1.75\ m/s^2

Hence, this is the required solution.

An astronaut floating in space throws a wrench forward with the force of 10 N.
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

10N

Explanation:

1. Every Action has an equal and opposite reAction.

2. If 10N of force is acted upon an wrench, then the wrench will react with an equal amount of force, but in the opposite direction.

Why electrons flow in a wire when connected to a battery?
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

The metal atoms in the wire can't move, but their outer electrons can. The force pushes those electrons and they move to further parts of the wire, trying to reach the other end. As the electrons move away, new electrons flow into the wire through the battery to take their place.

Which choice has more thermal energy?
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

If thermal energy is the motion energy of the particles of a substance, which has more thermal energy—the cup of hot tea or a spoonful of hot tea? It makes sense that the more particles of a substance you have, then the more thermal energy the substance has. The cup of hot tea would have more thermal energy, even if the temperature of the tea is the same in the cup and in the spoon. But which cools down the quickest (has the highest rate of thermal energy transfer)—the tea in the cup or the tea in the spoon? If I have fewer particles of the same substance, then the rate of thermal energy transfer is faster. The tea in the spoon would lose thermal energy more rapidly. So the amount of a substance you have is one factor that affects the rate of thermal energy transfer.

What is the speed of light? What is the speed of sound?
Rasek [7]

Answer:

speed of light simulating traveling at the speed of light. Speed of light, speed at which light waves propagate through different materials. In particular, the value for the speed of light in a vacuum is now defined as exactly 299,792,458 metres per second

The speed of sound is the distance travelled per unit of time by a sound wave as it propagates through an elastic medium
