Crest is that point of the wave which has maximum positive amplitude. Therefore, C represents the crest. Trough is that point of the wave which has maximum negative amplitude. The distance between successive crests or troughs is said to be wavelength. Therefore, A represents the wavelength. B represents trough.

The Hubble Space Telescope in orbit above the Earth has a 2.4 m circular aperture. The telescope has equipment for detecting ult

strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

Option d

The minimum angular separation between two objects that the Hubble Space Telescope can resolve is $4.8x10^{-8}rad$ .

Explanation:

The resulting image in a telescope that will be gotten from an object is a diffraction pattern instead of a perfect point (point spread function (PSF)).

That diffraction pattern is gotten because the light encounters different obstacles on its path inside the telescope (interacts 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 pattern maxima is greater than the radius of the Airy disk.

The angular resolution can be determined in 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.

$\lambda = 95nm \cdot \frac{1x10^{-9}m}{1nm}$ ⇒ $9.5x10^{-8}m$

Finally, equation 1 can be used.

$\theta = 1.22(\frac{9.5x10^{-8}m}{2.4m})$

$\theta = 4.8x10^{-8}rad$

Hence, the minimum angular separation between two objects that the Hubble Space Telescope can resolve is $4.8x10^{-8}rad$ .

How many electrons are in an electrically neutral atom of boron? A) 3 B) 5 C) 6 D) 8

Hoochie [10]

B. five electrons

If you want an explanation, here it is.

The atomic number gives the number of protons. Protons which have a positive charge are balanced by an equal number of electrons in a neutral atom. Boron number 5 has five protons and therefore as a neutral atom also has five electrons.

6. A warehouse employee is pushing a 15.0 kg desk across a floor at a constant speed of 0.50 m/s. How much work must the employe

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

7.5 J

Explanation:

To answer the question given above, we need to determine the energy that will bring about the speed of 1 m/s. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) = 15 Kg

Velocity (v) = 1 m/s

Energy (E) =?

E = ½mv²

E = ½ × 15 × 1²

E = ½ × 15 × 1

E = ½ × 15

E = 7.5 J

Therefore, to change the speed to 1 m/s, the employee must do a work of 7.5 J.
