Suppose that the angular separation of two stars is 0.1 arcseconds, and you photograph them with a telescope that has an angular

resolution of 1 arcsecond. How will the stars appear in the photograph?

Answer: the photograph will likely show only one star.

Explanation:

Since their angular separation is smaller than the telescope's angular resolution, the picture will apparently show only one star rather than two.

How is the magnetic force on a particle moving in a magnetic field different from gravitational and electric forces.

harina [27]

Answer:

The magnetic force on a free moving charge depends on the velocity of the charge and the magnetic field, direction of the force is given by the right hand rule. While gravitational depends on the mass and distance of the moving particle and electric forces depends on the magnitude of the charge and distance of separation.

Explanation:

The magnetic force on a free moving charge depends on the velocity of the charge and the magnetic field and direction of the force is given by the right hand rule. While gravitational depends on the mass and distance of the moving particle and electric forces depends on the magnitude of the charge and distance of separation.

The magnetic force is given by the charge times the vector product of velocity and magnetic field. While gravitational force is given by the square of the particle mass divided by the square its distance of separation. Also electric forces is given by the square of the charge magnitude divided by the square its distance separation.

At one point in a pipeline, the water's speed is 3.57 m/s and the gauge pressure is 68.7 kPa. Find the gauge pressure at a secon

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

The pressure at point 2 is $P_2 = 254.01 kPa$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The speed at point 1 is $v_1 = 3.57 \ m/s$

The gauge pressure at point 1 is $P_1 = 68.7kPa = 68.7*10^{3}\ Pa$

The density of water is $\rho = 1000 \ kg/m^3$

Let the height at point 1 be $h_1$ then the height at point two will be

$h_2 = h_1 - 18.5$

Let the diameter at point 1 be $d_1$ then the diameter at point two will be

$d_2 = 2 * d_1$

Now the continuity equation is mathematically represented as

$A_1 v_1 = A_2 v_2$

Here $A_1 , A_2$ are the area at point 1 and 2

Now given that the are is directly proportional to the square of the diameter [i.e $A= \frac{\pi d^2}{4}$ ]

which can represent as

$A \ \ \alpha \ \ d^2$

=> $A = c d^2$

where c is a constant

so $\frac{A_1}{d_1^2} = \frac{A_2}{d_2^2}$

=> $\frac{A_1}{d_1^2} = \frac{A_2}{4d_1^2}$

=> $A_2 = 4 A_1$

Now from the continuity equation

$A_1 v_1 = 4 A_1 v_2$

=> $v_2 = \frac{v_1}{4}$

=> $v_2 = \frac{3.57}{4}$

$v_2 = 0.893 \ m/s$

Generally the Bernoulli equation is mathematically represented as

$P_1 + \frac{1}{2} \rho v_1^2 + \rho * g * h_1 = P_2 + \frac{1}{2} \rho v_2^2 + \rho * g * h_2$

So

$P_2 = \rho * g (h_1 -h_2 )+P_1 + \frac{1}{2} * \rho (v_1^2 -v_2 ^2 )$

=> $P_2 = \rho * g (h_1 -(h_1 -18.3) + P_1 + \frac{1}{2} * \rho (v_1^2 -v_2 ^2 )$

substituting values

$P_2 = 1000 * 9.8 (18.3) )+ 68.7*10^{3} + \frac{1}{2} * 1000 ((3.57)^2 -0.893 ^2 )$

$P_2 = 254.01 kPa$

What is the difference between a circuit and a current?

dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

a circuit is a complete loop that carries a current in the form of electrons from negative to positive

Explanation:

The difference between current and circuit is that a circuit is a complete loop that carries a current in the form of electrons from negative to positive .

In a circuit, there are difference elements or components such as the battery, wire, resistor. The goal of a circuit arrangement is to completely carry current from one end to another.

The current is the quantity of charge that flows within the circuit per unit of time.

So, the battery supplies the electromotive force to move the current round the circuit.
