Answer: (1) 3.83x10^3 J
Explanation:
(1) Fx=(255N)cos60°
dx=30.0m
w=Fx dx =(255)(cos60°)(30.0m)
Complete Question
One day, after pulling down your window shade, you notice that sunlight is passing through a pinhole in the shade and making a small patch of light on the far wall. Having recently studied optics in your physics class, you're not too surprised to see that the patch of light seems to be a circular diffraction pattern. It appears that the central maximum is about 2 cm across, and you estimate that the distance from the window shade to the wall is about 5 m.
Required:
Estimate the diameter of the pinhole.
Answer:
The diameter is 
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The central maxima is 
The distance from the window shade is 
The average wavelength of the sun is mathematically evaluated as

Generally the visible light spectrum has a wavelength range between 400 nm to 700 nm
So the initial wavelength of the sun is 
and the final wavelength is 
Substituting this into the above equation


The diameter is evaluated as

substituting values


Frequency is measured in units of reciprocal time.
Period is measured in units of time.
Phase is a number without units that represents a fraction of a wave.
None of these is measured in meters, so none of them can be the answer.
It must be either amplitude or wavelength.
Amplitude is a quantity that's measured at one or two points in the same wave.
The question is talking about points on consecutive waves.
<em>Wavelength is</em> the only choice left. That must be it.
Answer:
A. Geocentric: This model is Earth Centered
. Retrograde motion is explained by epicycles
.
B. Heliocentric: This model is Sun centered. Retrograde motion is explained by the orbital speeds of planets
C. Both geocentric and heliocentric: Epicycles and deferents help explain planetary motion
. Planets move in circular orbits and with uniform motion
. The brightness of a planet increases when the planet is closest to Earth.
Explanation:
The principle of the Ptolemy's geocentric model was developed on the assumption that the center of the universe is the Earth. On the other hand, the principle of the Copernicus' heliocentric model was based on the assumption that the center of the universe is the sun. However, both models have a common ideology on uniform circular motion and epicycles.
N2 = 3*n1
T2 = 2*T1
V1 = V2
(n2 * T2)/P2 = (n1 * T1)/P1
3 n1 * 2 T1 / P2 = n1 *T1 / P1
P2 = 6*P1
Since P2 is 6P1, it is 6 times greater than original pressure
