An aurora occurs when ____
ASHA 777 [7]

The short answer to how the aurora happens is that energetic electrically charged particles (mostly electrons) accelerate along the magnetic field lines into the upper atmosphere, where they collide with gas atoms, causing the atoms to give off light.

A plate carries a charge of 3.8 UC, while a rod carries a charge of 1.9 C. How many electrons must be transferred from the plate
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

N_{electrons}=Q_{transfered}/q_{electron}=5.94*10^{18}electrons

Explanation:

The total charge is distributed over the two objects:

Q_{total}/2=(3.8*10^{-6}C+1.9C)/2=0.9500019C\\

The plate and the rod must have Q_{total}/2\\. So the charge transferred from the plate to the rod is:

Q_{transfered}=3.8*10^{-6}C-Q_{total}/2=3.8*10^{-6}C-0.9500019C=-0.9499981C\\

Number of electrons:

N_{electrons}=Q_{transfered}/q_{electron}=-0.9499981C/(-1.6*10^{-19}C)=5.94*10^{18}electrons

When dots are placed on a page from a laser printer, they must be close enough so that you do not see the individual dots of ink
Dovator [93]

Answer:

 y <8 10⁻⁶ m

Explanation:

For this exercise, they indicate that we use the Raleigh criterion that establishes that two luminous objects are separated when the maximum diffraction of one of them coincides with the first minimum of the other.

 Therefore the diffraction equation for slits with m = 1 remains

             a sin θ = λ

in general these experiments occur for oblique angles so

             sin θ = θ

             θ = λ / a

in the case of circular openings we must use polar coordinates to solve the problem, the solution includes a numerical constant

           θ = 1.22 λ / a

The angles in these measurements are taken in radians, therefore

          θ = s / R

as the angle is small the arc approaches the distance s = y

          y / R = 1.22 λ / s

          y = 1.22 λ R / a

let's calculate

            y = 1.22 500 10⁻⁹ 0.42 / 0.032

            y = 8 10⁻⁶ m

with this separation the points are resolved according to the Raleigh criterion, so that it is not resolved (separated)

                 y <8 10⁻⁶ m
