Given :

A microscope using ultraviolet light is used to study bacteria. If the aperture diameter is 1.5 cm.

Angular size is 0.036 arc seconds.

To Find :

The maximum wavelength that can be used.

Solution :

Converting given angle into radians :

\theta = \dfrac{0.036}{3600}\times \dfrac{\pi}{180}\\\\\theta = 1.745\times 10^{-7}\ radians

Now, we know maximum wavelength is given by :

\lambda = \dfrac{\theta \times D}{1.22}\\\\\lambda = \dfrac{1.745\times 10^{-7} \times 0.015}{1.22}\ m\\\\\lambda =2.145 \times 10^{-7}\ m

Hence, this is the required solution.

A charge alters the space around it. What is this alteration of space called?
iogann1982 [59]

Answer: electric field

Explanation: when a charge is placed in space, it alters the space around it by creating an electric field.

This electric field has the ability to exert a force (f) on any test charge(q) placed within this vicinity.

This is the reason why a charge can either attract or repel another charge.

If you push any floating object down from equilibrium and release it, it bobs up and down. That looks like an oscillation, so le
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

  F_{y} = ( ρ_fluid g A) y

Explanation:

This exercise can be solved in two parts, the first finding the equilibrium force and the second finding the oscillating force

for the first part, let's write Newton's equilibrium equation

        B₀ - W = 0

        B₀ = W

        ρ_fluid g V_fluid = W

the volume of the fluid is the area of ​​the cube times the height it is submerged

      V_fluid = A y  

For the second part, the body introduces a quantity and below this equilibrium point, the equation is

        B - W = m a

        ρ_fluid g A (y₀ + y) - W = m a

        ρ_fluid g A y + (ρ_fluid g A y₀ -W) = m a

       ρ_fluid g A y + (B₀-W) = ma

the part in parentheses is zero since it is the force when it is in equilibrium

      ρ_fluid g A y = m a

      this equation the net force is

      F_{y} = ( ρ_fluid g A) y

we can see that this force varies linearly the distance and measured from the equilibrium position
