A. Calculate the diffraction limit of the human eye, assuming a wide-open pupil so that your eye acts like a lens with diameter
myrzilka [38]

A. The Dawes limit tells us that the resolving power is equal to 11.6 / d, where d is the diameter of the eye’s pupil in units of centimeters. The eye's pupil can dialate to approximately 7 mm, or 0.7 cm. So 11.6 / .7 = 16.5 arc seconds, or about a quarter arc minute ~ 17 arc seconds<span>

Although, the standard answer for what people can really see is about 1 arc minute.

B. It is considered as linear, so given a 10 meter telescope (10,000 mm): </span>

10000 / 7 = 1428 times better for the 10 meter scope ~ 1400 times better (in 2 significant figures)

yarga [219]

Answer:

197.263157895 m/s

169.491525424 m/s

Explanation:

x Denotes position

t Denotes time

Average velocity is given by

v_a=\dfrac{x_2-x_1}{t_2}\\\Rightarrow v_a=\dfrac{1000-63}{4.75}\\\Rightarrow v_a=197.263157895\ m/s

The average velocity is 197.263157895 m/s

v_a=\dfrac{x_2-x_1}{t_2}\\\Rightarrow v_a=\dfrac{1000-0}{5.9}\\\Rightarrow v_a=169.491525424\ m/s

The average velocity is 169.491525424 m/s
