Two light bulbs are 2.0 m apart. From what distance can these light bulbs be marginally resolved by a small telescope with a 4.5
andrezito [222]

Answer:

R = 1.2295 10⁵  m

Explanation:

After reading your problem they give us the diameter of the lens d = 4.50 cm = 0.0450 m, therefore if we use the Rayleigh criterion for the resolution in the diffraction phenomenon, we have that the minimum separation occurs in the first minimum of diffraction of one of the bodies m = 1 coincides with the central maximum of the other body

            θ = 1.22 λ / D

where the constant 1.22 leaves the resolution in polar coordinates and D is the lens aperture

             

how angles are measured in radians

          θ = y / R

where y is the separation of the two bodies (bulbs) y = 2 m and R the distance from the bulbs to the lens

            \frac{y}{R} = 1.22 \frac{ \lambda}{D}

            R = \frac{ y \ D}{1.22 \lambda}

let's calculate

            R = \frac{ 2 \ 0.045}{ 1.22 \ 600 \ 10^{-9}}

            R = 1.2295 10⁵  m

3. How is using a model to study cells helpful?
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

Yes, it is very helpful.

Explanation:

It's helpful since in a cell, plant or animal, there are a lot of different things. It's hard to memorize everything and know what they look like. Using a model can help you memorize everything better and even understand it better. If someone asked me where or what something was in a cell I think I would be able to recognize it better.

I hope this helps!

A parked car's horn (belonging to a musician) emits a concert A of frequency 440 on a day when the speed of sound is 342 m/s. Yo
julsineya [31]

Answer:

19.08 m/s

Explanation:

f = actual frequency emitted by the parked car's horn = 440 Hz

V = speed of sound = 342 m/s

f' = frequency of the horn observed by you = 466 Hz

v = speed of your car moving towards the parked car = ?

frequency of the horn observed by you is given as

f' = \frac{Vf}{V - v}

466 = \frac{(342)(440)}{342 - v}

v = 19.08 m/s

Show how the alternative definition of power, found in your book, can be derived by substituting the definitions of work and spe
Harman [31]

Let us consider body moves a distance S due to the force F.

Hence the work by the body W = FS

If the force is not along the direction of displacement,then the work by a body for travelling a distance S will be -

                                       W=[ Fcos\theta]*S  where    Fcos\theta is the component of the force along the direction of displacement.

                                  Hence\ W= FScos\theta

                                                        = F.S

As per the question the power P is given as -

                                                  P=\frac{W}{\delta t}

                                                         =\frac{F.S}{\delta t}

                                                         = F.\frac{S}{\delta t}

                                                         = \ F.V

Hence alternative definition of power P = F.V
