Hi, thank you for posting your question here at Brainly.

This problem could be solved using this equation:

Diffraction limit = 1.22*wavelength/diameter

diameter = 0.8 cm = 0.008 m
wavelength = 500E-9 m

Diffraction limit = 1.22(500E-9)/0.008
Diffraction limit = 0.00007625

8.0kg rocket fired horizontally encounters a force of air resistance of 4.9 N. The force supplied by the rocket's engine is 60.9
Gelneren [198K]
60.9 - 4.9= 56
56 is the net force
using the formula F = ma
56= 8a
a = 7
acceleration is 7ms^-2

The feeling of weightlessness occurs because _____________________.
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

The feeling of weight is one of compression.

Explanation:

All your body is being pulled down by gravity yet your feet ( if standing) or your back or something is holding you up.  

Your body is compressed by the PAIR of forces and it is that compression that you feel.  

So when you remove the supporting force then all the body is free to move together and there is no compression within you.  

Hence you perceive no weight.
