Can anyone help me with this question?

Listed following are the names and mirror diameters for six of the world’s greatest reflecting telescopes used to gather visible

ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

Large binocular telescope, Keck 1 telescope, Hobby-Ebberly telescope, Subaru telescope, Gemini North telescope, Magellan 2 telescope

Explanation:

How much light a telescope can collect depends on its diameter, since in a bigger area more photons will be collected.

Remember that in a circle the area is defined as:

$A = \pi r^{2}$ (1)

Where A is the area and r is its radius.

However, the radius can be determined by means of its diameter.

$d = 2r$

$r = \frac{d}{2}$ (1)

Where d is its diameter.

An example of this is when a person is collecting raindrops with a bucket and with a cup. Since the bucket has a bigger area than the cup, it will collect more raindrops by unit of time. In this scenario the raindrops represent the photons.

To determine the light collecting area of each telescope, equation 2 will be replaced in equation 1.

$A = \pi (\frac{d}{2})^{2}$ (3)

Case for Large binocular telescope:

$A_{mirror1} = \pi (\frac{8.4m}{2})^{2}$

$A_{mirror1} = 55.41m$

For the second mirror will be the same value

$A = A_{mirror1}+A_{mirror2}$

$A = 55.41m+55.41m$

$A= 110.82m$

Case for Keck 1 telescope:

$A = \pi (\frac{10m}{2})^{2}$

$A = 78.53m$

Case for Hobby-Ebberly telescope:

$A = \pi (\frac{9.2m}{2})^{2}$

$A = 66.47m$

Case for Subaru telescope:

$A = \pi (\frac{8.3m}{2})^{2}$

$A = 54.10m$

Case for Gemini North telescope:

$A = \pi (\frac{8m}{2})^{2}$

$A = 50.26m$

Case for Magellan 2 telescope:

$A = \pi (\frac{6.5m}{2})^{2}$

$A = 33.18m$

Hence, they may be rank in the following way:

Large binocular telescope, Keck 1 telescope, Hobby-Ebberly telescope, Subaru telescope, Gemini North telescope, Magellan 2 telescope.

If the mass of the ladder is 12.0 kgkg, the mass of the painter is 55.0 kgkg, and the ladder begins to slip at its base when her

Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

μ = 0.336

Explanation:

We will work on this exercise with the expressions of transactional and rotational equilibrium.

Let's start with rotational balance, for this we set a reference system at the top of the ladder, where it touches the wall and we will assign as positive the anti-clockwise direction of rotation

fr L sin θ - W L / 2 cos θ - W_painter 0.3 L cos θ = 0

fr sin θ - cos θ (W / 2 + 0,3 W_painter) = 0

fr = cotan θ (W / 2 + 0,3 W_painter)

Now let's write the equilibrium translation equation

X axis

F1 - fr = 0

F1 = fr

the friction force has the expression

fr = μ N

Y Axis

N - W - W_painter = 0

N = W + W_painter

we substitute

fr = μ (W + W_painter)

we substitute in the endowment equilibrium equation

μ (W + W_painter) = cotan θ (W / 2 + 0,3 W_painter)

μ = cotan θ (W / 2 + 0,3 W_painter) / (W + W_painter)

we substitute the values they give

μ = cotan θ (12/2 + 0.3 55) / (12 + 55)

μ = cotan θ (22.5 / 67)

μ = cotan tea (0.336)

To finish the problem, we must indicate the angle of the staircase or catcher data to find the angle, if we assume that the angle is tea = 45

cotan 45 = 1 / tan 45 = 1

the result is

μ = 0.336

A man runs 1200m on a straight line in 4 min . find his velocity.

luda_lava [24]

Answer:

5m/sec^2

Explanation:

Distance=1200m

Time=4 min

1=60sec

4=4 x 60

=240sec

Velocity=Distance/Time

Velocity=1200/240

Velocity=5m/sec^2

Two marbles, one twice as heavy as the other, are dropped to the ground from the roof of a building. Just before hitting the gro

Andreyy89

Answer:

B. twice as much kinetic energy

Explanation:

Lets take the mass of the first marble =2 m

the mass of the second marble = m

We know that velocity of particle does not depends on their mass that is the velocity of both mass will be same after dropping from the roof.

We know that kinetic energy of a mass is given as

$KE=\dfrac{1}{2}Mv^2$

Kinetic energy for heavier mass

$KE=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2m\times V^2$

Kinetic energy for light mass

$KE'=\dfrac{1}{2}\times m\times V^2$

KE=2 KE '

Form above two equation we can say that ,the kinetic energy for the heavier mass is twice the lighter mass.

Therefore the answer will be B.
