When making maps of the large-scale universe, astronomers estimate distances to the vast majority of galaxies by using:

Vesnalui [34]3 years ago

Answer:

<em>The comoving distance and the proper distance scale</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

The comoving distance scale removes the effects of the expansion of the universe, which leaves us with a distance that does not change in time due to the expansion of space (since space is constantly expanding). The comoving distance and proper distance are defined to be equal at the present time; therefore, the ratio of proper distance to comoving distance now is 1. The scale factor is sometimes not equal to 1. The distance between masses in the universe may change due to other, local factors like the motion of a galaxy within a cluster.  Finally, we note that the expansion of the Universe results in the proper distance changing, but the comoving distance is unchanged by an expanding universe.

A small, positively charged ball is moved close to a large, positively charged ball. which describes how the small ball likely r
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer;

-it will move away from the large ball because like charges repel.

Explanation;

-Electric force is the force that pushes apart two like charges, or that pulls together two unlike charges. The basic law of electrostatics Like charges of electricity repel each other, whereas unlike charges attract each other.

When small, positively charged ball is moved close to a large, positively charged ball it would be pushed away from the large positively charged ball since they are both positively charged. One has to put in energy to try to move the small ball closer to the large ball. The closer one try to move it to the large ball, the more energy one has to put in, so the more electrical potential energy the small ball would have.

A spy camera is said to be able to read the numbers on a car's license plate. If the numbers on the plate are 4.30 cm apart, and
Maslowich

Answer:

D = 2.38 m

Explanation:

This exercise is a diffraction problem where we must be able to separate the license plate numbers, so we must use a criterion to know when two light sources are separated, let's use the Rayleigh criterion, according to this criterion two light sources are separated if The maximum diffraction of a point coincides with the first minimum of the second point, so we can use the diffraction equation for a slit

         a sin θ  = m λ

Where the first minimum occurs for m = 1, as in these experiments the angle is very small, we can approximate the sine to the angle

           θ = λ / a

Also when we use a circular aperture instead of slits, we must use polar coordinates, which introduce a numerical constant

           θ = 1.22 λ / D

Where D is the circular tightness

       

Let's apply this equation to our case

         D = 1.22 λ /  θ

To calculate the angles let's use trigonometry

         tan  θ = y / x

          θ = tan⁻¹  y / x

          θ = tan⁻¹ (4.30 10⁻² / 140 10³)

          θ = tan⁻¹ (3.07 10⁻⁷)

          θ = 3.07 10⁻⁷ rad

Let's calculate

        D = 1.22 600 10⁻⁹ / 3.07 10⁻⁷

        D = 2.38 m
