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 .

Compare the relationship between kinetic energy and mass with that of kinetic energy and speed.
Sveta_85 [38]
Kinetic energy is when something is moving if a car for example is going very fast it is giving off lots of kinetic energy the faster it goes the more energy is given off but say the car is parked it is giving off no kinetic energy at all it is giving off potential energy which is when something is still or not moving

Current Attempt in Progress The atomic radii of a divalent cation and a monovalent anion are 0.52 nm and 0.125 nm, respectively.
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

a)   F = 1.70 10⁻⁹N,   F = 1.47 10⁻⁸ N,

b) * the electronegative repulsion, from the repulsion by quantum effects

Explanation:

a) The atraicione force comes from the electric force given by Coulomb's law,

           F = k \frac{ q_1 q_2}{r^2}

divalent atoms

In this case q = 2q₀ where qo is the charge of the electron -1,6 10⁻¹⁹ C and the separation is given

           F = k q² / r²

           F = 2 \ 10^9 \  \frac{2 (1.6 \  10^{-19} )^2}{ (0.52 10^{-9} )^2 }

           F = 1.70 10⁻⁹N

monovalent atoms

in this case the load is q = q₀

           F = 2 \ 10^9 \  \frac{ (1.6 \  10^{-19} )^2}{ (0.125 10^{-9} )^2 }

           F = 1.47 10⁻⁸ N

b) repulsive forces come from various sources

* the electronegative repulsion of positive nuclei

* the electrostatic repulsion of the electrons when it comes to bringing the electron clouds closer together

* from the repulsion of electron clouds, by quantum effects

What it means to view something from a frame of reference. Give an example to illustrate your explanation
maks197457 [2]
Frame of reference refers to something that is not moving with respect to an observer that can be used to detect motion. For the children on the bus, if they use other children riding the bus as their frame of reference, they do not appear to be moving. But if they use objects outside the bus as their frame of reference, they can tell they are moving.
