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
B) The amount of work done
Answer:
λ = 5.2 x 10⁻⁷ m = 520 nm
Explanation:
From Young's Double Slit Experiment, we know the following formula for the distance between consecutive bright fringes:
Δx = λL/d
where,
Δx = fringe spacing = distance of 1st bright fringe from center = 0.00322 m
L = Distance between slits and screen = 3.1 m
d = Separation between slits = 0.0005 m
λ = wavelength of light = ?
Therefore,
0.00322 m = λ(3.1 m)/(0.0005 m)
λ = (0.00322 m)(0.0005 m)/(3.1 m)
<u>λ = 5.2 x 10⁻⁷ m = 520 nm</u>
