Answer:
* Larger mirrors collect more light and therefore fainter and more distant objects can have enough intensity to be detected
* arger mirrors decreases the angle of dispersion giving a better resolution of the bodies
Explanation:
Refracting telescopes get bigger every day for two main reasons.
* Larger mirrors collect more light and therefore fainter and more distant objects can have enough intensity to be detected
* the diffraction process for circular apertures is given by
θ = 1.22 λ / D
where d is the diameter of the mirror, therefore having larger mirrors decreases the angle of dispersion giving a better resolution of the bodies
Answer: 
Explanation:
Given
Wavelength of light 
Screen is 
away
Distance between two adjacent bright fringe is 
When same experiment done in water, wavelength reduce to 
So, the distance between the two adjacent bright fringe is 
Keeping other factor same, distance becomes
Answer:
(b) Yes, the earth gains momentum but the change in momentum of the earth is much lesser compared to that of everyone in the air. The resistance to motion (inertia of the earth), which is a function of its mass is so great that the earth's acceleration is small in the given time frame.
Explanation:
From Newton's second law which can be stated mathematically as
F = m(v-u)/t = ma.
By Newton's law of gravitation, there is a force between the earth and everyone in the air. This force is responsible for the change in momentum of everyone in the air and this force gives them an acceleration equal to g = 9.80m/s². By Newton's law of gravitation and Newton's third law of motion, this force is also equal to the force exerted by everyone on the earth.
For this to be true,
F = M (everyone) ×a (everyone) = M(earth) × a (earth).
And
a (earth) = {M (everyone) ×a (everyone) }/M (earth)
Then
a (earth) must be lesser than a (everyone) since M(earth) >> M(everyone).
a = change in momentum/ time
Therefore the earth will have a much lesser change in momentum which is the reason we won't notice the earth's movement.

When discussing discordant and harmonious sound waves, the
statement that is false is knowing the frequencies of the original waves is
useful in determining if the result will be discordant or harmonious. The
answer is letter B.
Accourding to newtons second law of motion:
Force = mass * acceleration
F = ma
a = F/m
