Answer:

The value is y  = 3.097 * 10^{-5} \  m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The diameter of the pupil is d_p  =  4.2 \ mm  =  4.2 *10^{-3} \  m

The distance of the page from the eye d =  29 \  cm  =  0.29 \  m

The wavelength is \lambda  =  500 \ nm =  500 *10^{-9} \  m

The refractive index is n_r =  1.36

Generally the minimum separation of adjacent dots that can be resolved is mathematically represented as

y  = [ \frac{1.22 *  \lambda }{d_p * n_r } ]* d

         y  = [ \frac{1.22 *  500 *10^{-9} }{4.2 *10^{-3} * 1.36} ]* 0.29

         y  = 3.097 * 10^{-5} \  m

RoseWind [281]

With the switch open, there's no current in the circuit, and therefore
no voltage drop across any of the dissipative elements (the resistor
or the battery's internal impedance).  So the entire battery voltage
appears across the switch, and the voltmeter reads 12.0V .

The light from the sun has higher frequencies from one side of the sun than from the other side. What does that tell you about t
morpeh [17]

If the light from the sun has higher frequencies from one side of the sun than from the other side, it is proof that the Sun is rotating.

Doppler effect states that, if a person is standing still and a source ( sound / light ) is moving towards him, the frequency of the wave emitted from the object will increase and if the source ( sound / light ) is away from him, the frequency of the wave emitted from the object will decrease.

So, if the light from the sun has higher frequencies from one side of the sun than from the other side, it means that the Sun is rotating. The higher frequencies points are the points that rotating towards Earth and lower frequencies points are the points that rotating away from Earth.

Therefore, if the light from the sun has higher frequencies from one side of the sun than from the other side, it is proof that the Sun is rotating.

Two uniform, solid cylinders of radius R and total mass M are connected along their common axis by a short, light rod and rest o
sveta [45]

Explanation:

A) To prove the motion of the center of mass of the cylinders is simple harmonic:

System diagram for given situation is shown in attached Fig. 1

We can prove the motion of the center of mass of the cylinders is simple harmonic if

a_{x} = -\omega^{2}  x

where aₓ is acceleration when attached cylinders move in horizontal direction:

<h3>PROOF:</h3>

rotational inertia for cylinders  is given as:

                                  I=\frac{1}{2}MR^{2} -----(1)

Newton's second law for angular motion is:

                                             ∑τ = Iα ------(2)

For linear motion in horizontal direction it is:

                                             ∑Fₓ = Maₓ ------ (3)

By definition of torque:

                                               τ  = RF --------(4)        

Put (4) and (1) in (2)

                                       RF=\frac{1}{2}MR^{2}\alpha

                                       RF=\frac{1}{2}MR^{2}\alpha

from Fig 3 it can be seen that fs is force by which the cylinders roll without slipping as they oscillate

So above equation becomes

                                   f_{s}=\frac{1}{2}MR\alpha------ (5)

As angular acceleration is related to linear by:

                                          a= R\alpha

Eq (5) becomes

                                    f_{s}=\frac{1}{2}Ma_{x}---- (6)

aₓ shows displacement in horizontal direction

From (3)

                                              ∑Fₓ = Maₓ

Fₓ is sum of fs and restoring force that spring exerts:

                                  \sum F_{x} = f_{s} - kx ----(7)

Put (7) in (3)

                                  f_{s} - kx  = Ma_{x}[/tex] -----(8)

Using (6) in (8)

                               \frac{1}{2}Ma_{x} - kx =Ma_{x}

                                     a_{x} = \frac{2k}{3M} x --- (9)

For spring mass system

                                  a= -\omega^{2} x ----- (10)

Equating (9) and (10)

                                  \omega^{2} = \frac{2k}{3M}

\omega = \sqrt{ \frac{2k}{3M}}

then (9) becomes

                                a_{x} = - \omega^{2}x

(The minus sign says that x and  aₓ  have opposite directions as shown in fig 3)

This proves that the motion of the center of mass of the cylinders is simple harmonic.

<h3 /><h3>B) Time Period</h3>

Time period is related to angular frequency as:

                                   T=\frac{2\pi }{\omega}

                                  T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{3M}{2k}
