Complete Question
Due to blurring caused by atmospheric distortion, the best resolution that can be obtained by a normal, earth-based, visible-light telescope is about 0.3 arcsecond (there are 60 arcminutes in a degree and 60 arcseconds in an arcminute).Using Rayleigh's criterion, calculate the diameter of an earth-based telescope that gives this resolution with 700 nm light
Answer:
The diameter is
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The best resolution is 
The wavelength is 
Generally the
1 arcminute = > 60 arcseconds
=> x arcminute => 0.3 arcsecond
So

=> 
Now
60 arcminutes => 1 degree
0.005 arcminutes = > z degrees
=> 
=> 
Converting to radian

Generally the resolution is mathematically represented as

=> 
=>
=>
The answer is D using the work formula
W= F•d but if it was against gravity, it would be 0 if gravity is exerting the same amount, I would pick D using the formula, but I'm not so sure sorry
now you justhave to solve the last numbers because...Iam sooo Lazy right now
Answer:
a. mechanical; require a medium to travel through
Explanation:
Longitudinal, transverse and surface waves are types of mechanical waves. For example, within the longitudinal waves are the sound waves, which needs a medium to propagate like the air. This is why sound does not travel in a vacuum.
And an example of a transverse wave is the waves that form in the water when a rock is thrown (ripples), these waves need a medium (the water) to propagate.
On the other hand, electromagnetic waves such as light waves do not need a medium to propagate, this is why we can see the light of distant stars because their light travels through the vacuum until it reaches us.
So, the answer is:
Transverse, surface, and longitudinal waves are all mechanical waves because they require a medium to travel through .
