Post-Impressionist Georges Seurat is famous for a painting technique known as pointillism. His paintings are made up of differen

t-colored dots, and each dot is roughly 2 mm in diameter. When viewed from far enough away, the dots blend together and only large-scale images are seen. Assuming that the human pupil is about 2.9 mm in diameter, determine an approximate minimum distance you need to stand from one of Seurat's paintings to see the dots blended together. (Assume two dots touch, such that their center-to-center distance is equal to one diameter. Also assume light with a wavelength of 563 nm.)

Answer:

84 cm

Explanation:

The resolving power of the eye = 1.22 λ / D where λ is wavelength of light and D is diameter of the eye .

Putting the values in the formula

The resolving power of the eye = 1.22 λ / 2.9 x 10⁻³

Let the minimum distance you need to stand from one of Seurat's paintings to see the dots blended together  be D .

d = distance between two dots = diameter of dot = 2 x 10⁻³ m .

Given ,

λ D / d =  1.22 λ / 2.9 x 10⁻³

D /2 x 10⁻³   =  1.22  / 2.9 x 10⁻³

D = 2 x 1.22 / 2.9 m

= .84 m

= 84 cm .

minimum distance you need to stand from one of Seurat's paintings to see the dots blended together is 84 cm .

Microwave ovens emit microwave energy with a wavelength of 12.2 cm. What is the energy of exactly one photon of this microwave r
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

1.63\cdot 10^{-24} J

Explanation:

The energy of a photon is given by:

E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}

where

h is the Planck constant

c is the speed of light

\lambda is the wavelength of the photon

In this problem, we have a microwave photon with wavelength

\lambda=12.2 cm=0.122 m

Substituting into the equation, we find its energy:

E=\frac{(6.63\cdot 10^{-34} Js)(3\cdot 10^8 m/s)}{0.122 m}=1.63\cdot 10^{-24} J

To determine the height of a tall building such as Sears Tower in Chicago, Illinois a ball was dropped from the top of the build
Darya [45]

Answer:

The height of Sears Tower is 1448.5 feet.

Explanation:

<h3>We apply the free fall formula to the ball: </h3><h3>y=v_{o} *t+\frac{1}{2} *g*t^{2}</h3><h3>y: The vertical distance the ball moves at time t  </h3><h3>v_{o}i: Initial speed </h3><h3>g=Gravity acceleration=9.8*(\frac{\frac{1ft}{0.305m} }{s^{2} } )</h3>

Known information

We know that the vertical distance (y) that the ball moves in 9,5s  is equal to height of Sears Tower (h).  

Too we know that the ball is released from rest, then,v_{0}=0

Height of Sears Tower calculation:

We replace  in the equation 1 the data following;

y=h

v_{o} =0

g=32,1\frac{ft}{s^{2} }

t= 9,5s

h=0*9.5+\frac{1}{2} *32.1*9.5^{2}

h=1448.5 ft

Answer: The height of Sears Tower is 1448.5 ft
