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.

Does the refraction of light make a swimming pool seem deeper or shallower? explain your answer.
larisa [96]

The refraction of light makes a swimming pool seem <u>shallower</u>.

The swimming pool seems shallower because the rays of light coming from the bottom of the pool do not come with a straight path. The path of light is straight as long as it is in the water.

When lights come out of the water into the air it bents downwards. This bending is called refraction.

Refraction forms a virtual image of the pool and it seems shallower than it actually is to the observer. This only happens when light travels from one transparent medium into another having lower density.

3. A fighter jet covers a distance of 895m while accelerating from 22m/s to 35m/s. How long (in
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

31.404 seconds

Explanation:

To answer this equation, SUVAT is your best option utilizing and rearranging the known values to solve for the unknown.

here we have the values for

s=895

u=22

v=35

t= the unknown value

in this instant the equation s=0.5 x (u+v)t is the best equation to use

so we sub in the known values

895=0.5 x (22+35)t

rearrange to solve for t

895=28.5t

895/28.5=t

t=31.404 seconds (rounded to 3 decimal places)
