The Earth and Moon are separated by about 4.0 10^6 m. Suppose Mars is [{MathJax fullWidth='false' 2.9 \times 10^{11} }] m from E

arth and forms a right triangle with Earth and the Moon. Assume a pupil diameter of 6 mm and the wavelength is 550 nm. Determine the following. a. angular separation of Earth and Moon as seen from Mars b. angular resolution of the eye c. Could a person standing on Mars resolve the Earth and its Moon as two separate objects without a telescope?

Answer:

a) α=7.9x10^-4 rad

b) θ=1.12x10^-4 rad

c) The Earth and the Moon cannot be seen without a telescope.

Explanation:

In this exercise we will use the concepts of angular resolution, which depends on both the wavelength of the rays and the diameter of the eye or lens on the meter. Its unit of measure is the radian. The attached image shows the solution step by step.

A ball is thrown downward with an initial speed of 7 m / s. The ball's velocity after 3 seconds is m / s. (g = -9.8m / s²)
yan [13]

Answer:

-36.4 m/s

Explanation:

final velocity= initial velocity + acceleration x time

7 + (-9.8)(3)= -36.4 m/s

Over a span of 6.0 seconds, a car changes it's speed from 89 km/h to 37 km/h. What is its average acceleration in meters per sec
scoundrel [369]

Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

change in speed = (speed at the end) - (speed at the beginning)

change in speed = (37 km/hr) - (89 km/hr) = -52 km/hr

Acceleration = (-52 km/hr) / (6 sec)

Acceleration = (-26/3) km/(hr·sec)

Units: (1/hr·sec) · (hr/3600 sec) = 1 / 3600 sec²

(-26/3) km/(hr·sec) = (-26/3) km/(3600 sec²)

= -26,000/(3 · 3600) m/s²

<em>Acceleration = -2.41 m/s²</em>
