You own a high speed digital camera that can take a picture every 0.5 seconds. You decide to take a picture every 0.5 seconds of

your physics teacher as she drops a watermelon off the top of the school. After you develop and analyze the pictures, you realize that the distance the watermelon falls from the teacher in each new picture is

Answer:

here distance covered by drop in each picture is increasing

Explanation:

here as we know that drop is falling from certain height and we started to took the picture after every 0.5 seconds of time

now from the beginning it will fall by distance

d = \frac{1}{2}gt^2

here we have

d = \frac{1}{2}(9.8)(0.5^2) = 1.225 m

now distance covered in next picture will be given as

d = \frac{1]{2}(9.8)(1^2) = 4.9 m

then in next 5 second interval the distance will be

d = \frac{1}{2}(9.8)(1.5^2) = 11.025 m

so here the distance is continuously increasing with time in each interval of 0.5 s

The distance it falls in each picture is greater than in the last picture.

Light rays bend as they pass from air into
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

4

Explanation:

Refraction is the bending of light when it moves from one medium to another.

In the situation described:

  • The average speed of light changes when it goes to another medium. The speed of light in water is less than in air.
  • When velocity/speed changes, the index of refraction changes as well. Water's index is greater than in air.
  • Since, speed changes, wavelength changes too.
  • Only the frequency remains the same. The rates of vibration stays the same.

Correct choice is #4.

The 300 m diameter Arecibo radio telescope is observing the Andromeda galaxy at a wavelength of 29 cm. show answer No Attempt 50
jekas [21]

Answer:

The angle between two just-resolvable stars for the Arecibo telescope is 1.179x10^{-3}rad.

Explanation:

The resulting image in a telescope obtained from an object is a diffraction pattern.

That diffraction pattern is obtained because the light encounters different obstacles on its path inside the telescope (interact with the walls and edges of the instrument).

The diffraction pattern is composed by a central disk, called Airy disk, and diffraction rings.    

 

The angular resolution is defined as the minimal separation at which two sources can be resolved one for another, or in other words, when the distance between the two diffraction patterns maxima is greater than the radius of the Airy disk.

The angular resolution can be determined in an analytical way by means of the Rayleigh criterion.          

\theta = 1.22\frac{\lambda}{D}   (1)

Where \lambda is the wavelength and D is the diameter of the telescope.

Notice that it is necessary to express the wavelength in the same units than the diameter.

\lambda = 29cm \cdot \frac{1m}{100cm} ⇒ 0.29m

Finally, equation 1 can be used.

\theta = 1.22(\frac{0.29m}{300m})

\theta = 1.179x10^{-3}rad              

Hence, the angle between two just-resolvable stars for the Arecibo telescope is 1.179x10^{-3}rad
