Cold air. This is because there is more water in hot air due to its capacity for humidity and the water particles are actually less massive than the particles in cold air.

A low orbit satellite at 100 km altitude had a camera that resolved a car location to within 0.3 meter. Find the minimum diamete
NeX [460]

Answer:

Minimum diameter of the camera lens is 22.4 cm

The focal length of the camera's lens is 300cm

Explanation:

y = Resolve distance = 0.3 m

h = Height of satellite = 100 km

λ = Wavelength = 550 nm

Angular resolution

tan\theta\approx \theta =\frac{y}{h}\\\Rightarrow \theta=\frac{0.3}{100\times 10^3}=3\times 10^{-6}

From Rayleigh criteria

sin\theta=1.22\frac{\lambda}{D}\\\Rightarrow D=1.22\frac{\lambda}{sin\theta}\\\Rightarrow D=1.22\frac{550\times 10^{-9}}{sin3\times 10^{-6}}=0.2236\ m=22.4\ cm

Minimum diameter of the camera lens is 22.4 cm

Relation between resolvable feature, focal length and angular resolution

d=f\Delta \theta\\\Rightarrow f=\frac{d}{\Delta \theta}\\\Rightarrow f=\frac{9\times 10^{-6}}{3\times 10^{-6}}=3\ m=300\ cm

The focal length of the camera's lens is 300cm

Minority group
Margarita [4]

Answer:

Minority group - People who are singled  out for unequal treatment  and who regard  themselves as objects of  collective discrimination.

Ethnicity - A shared identity based on  cultural elements such as  heritage, language, and  religion.

Majority group - A group's subset that  consists of more than half  of the entire group's  members.

Race - A socially constructed  group of people who share  physical characteristics  that are considered  significant by a society  and that are used to  distinguish them from  other groups.

Explanation:

To better understand the above-mentioned definitions we would use some examples:

Elder people can be considered as a minority group in the United States because of their reduced status as a consequence of popular discrimination and prejudice against them. In contrast to them, young men consisting of more than half the population in the age category is an example of the majority group.

Groups of people like Hispanic Americans, Jews, Italian America, Irish are some examples of people belonging to different ethnic backgrounds residing in the U.S.

African Americans who are distinguished based on their skin color is an example of race.

Two wooden crates rest on top of one another. The smaller top crate has a mass of m1 = 24 kg and the larger bottom crate has a m
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

The sum of all forces for the two objects with force of friction F and tension T are:

(i) m₁a₁ = F

(ii) m₂a₂ = T - F

1) no sliding infers: a₁ = a₂= a

The two equations become:

m₂a = T - m₁a

Solving for a:

a = T / (m₁+m₂) = 2.1 m/s²

2) Using equation(i):

F = m₁a = 51.1 N

3) The maximum friction is given by:

F = μsm₁g

Using equation(i) to find a₁ = a₂ = a:

a₁ = μs*g

Using equation(ii)

T = m₁μsg + m₂μsg = (m₁ + m₂)μsg = 851.6 N

4) The kinetic friction is given by: F = μkm₁g

Using equation (i) and the kinetic friction:

a₁ = μkg = 6.1 m/s²

5) Using equation(ii) and the kinetic friction:

m₂a₂ = T - μkm₁g

a₂ = (T - μkm₁g)/m₂ = 12.1 m/s²
