A.

secondary mirror

B.

primary mirror

C.

magnifying lens

D.

eyepiece

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2)primary mirror

Explanation:

A reflecting telescope contains mirrors and a refracting telescope contains lenses. There are two mirrors in basic reflecting telescope. The primary mirror gathers the light from the bodies at distance and reflects it towards the secondary mirror. The secondary mirror is placed at such an angle that it then reflects the light towards the eye piece and we can observe the faraway body.

Radar consists of electromagnetic waves. A warplane is rendered invisible to enemy radar by applying an antireflective polymer coating. If radar waves have a frequency of 10 GHz (Giga = 1E9), and the index of refraction of the polymer for these waves is 1.50, what is the minimum thickness of the antireflective coating? (c = 3E8 m/s. The index of refraction of air is ~1, and that of the fuselage is larger than for the polymer coating)

Answers

Answer:

d = 0.015m

Explanation:

To find the thickness of the antireflective coating you take into account that waves must reflect and interfere destructively between them. A wave travels twice the thickness d of the coating, and for the destructive interference it is necessary that the reflected wave is (m+1/2) factor of the incident wave. Thus, you have:

[tex]2d=(m+\frac{1}{2})\lambda_n[/tex]

d: thickness of the coating

m: order of the interference (m=1 for the minimum thickness)

λn: wavelength of light inside the coating

You first calculate the wavelength of the wave:

[tex]\lambda=\frac{c}{f}=\frac{3*10^8m/s}{10*10^9Hz}=0.03m[/tex]

[tex]\lambda_{coating}=\lambda_n=\frac{n_{air}}{n_{coating}}\lambda_{air}\\\\\lambda_n=\frac{1}{1.50}(0.03m)=0.06m[/tex]

Then, you replace the values of m and λn in order to calculate d:

[tex]d=\frac{1}{2}(m+\frac{1}{2})\lambda_n[/tex]

[tex]d=\frac{1}{2}(0+\frac{1}{2})(0.06m)=0.015m=1.5cm[/tex]

hence, the thickness of the antireflective coating must be 0.015m

A wave with a frequency of 30 Hz has a wavelength of 40.5 m. How fast is the wave traveling?

Answers

Answer:

Speed of wave = 1,215 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Frequency of wave = 30 Hz

Wavelength = 40.5 m

Find:

Speed of wave = ?

Computation:

⇔ Speed of wave = Frequency of wave × Wavelength

⇔ Speed of wave = 30 Hz × 40.5 m

Speed of wave = 1,215 m/s

Therefore, speed of wave is 1,215 meter per second.

Many automatic processes use circuits to accomplish a task. Thermostats, automatic light switches, motors, and home security systems all use circuits. Besides common electronic devices such as stereos, iPods, computers, cell phones, video games, TVs, DVD players, what other things in our world use circuits?

Answers

Answer:

homes and cars

Explanation:

There are many devices in our day to day lives that use circuits in order to function. Aside from all those that are listed in the question some others include, our entire homes and cars, with the main difference being the amount of voltage that is being used. Just like tv's and computers, houses and cars use electrical circuits on a much larger scale in order to provide electricity to different parts of the system.

Answers

Answer:

Polygenic because a trait is controlled by three different  genes

Explanation:

In the given question, the diagram of the question is not found anywhere therefore the question has been answered based on previous knowledge.

The traits of an organism are determined by the sequences of nucleotide present on the DNA called genes. One gene-one protein hypothesis suggests that usually one trait is determined by 2 alleles of a gene but there are few traits which are either determined or influenced by more than one gene.

These traits are known as the polygenic trait as the traits are controlled by more than one or "poly (many) genes" like human eye color, height, and others.

Thus, the selected option is the correct answer.

Answer:

Polygenic because a trait is controlled by three different  genes

At t= 0, a particle moving in the xy plane with constant acceleration has a velocity of Vi= (3.00i -2.00j) m/s and is at the origin. At t= 3.00 s, the particle's velocity is V = (9.00i + 7.00j) m/s . Find (a) the acceleration of the particle and (b) its coordinates at any time t.

Answers

Answer:

(a) a = (2i + 4.5j) m/s^2

(b) r = ro + vot + (1/2)at^2

Explanation:

(a) The acceleration of the particle is given by:

[tex]\vec{a}=\frac{\vec{v}-\vec{v_o}}{t}\\\\[/tex]

vo: initial velocity = (3.00i -2.00j) m/s

v: final velocity = (9.00i + 7.00j) m/s

t = 3s

by replacing the values of the vectors and time you obtain:

[tex]\vec{a}=\frac{1}{3s}[(9.00-3.00)\hat{i}+(7.00-(-2.00))\hat{j}]\\\\\vec{a}=(2\hat{i}+4.5\hat{j})m/s^2[/tex]

(b) The position vector is given by:

[tex]\vec{r}=\vec{r_o}+\vec{v_o}t+\frac{1}{2}\vec{a}t^2[/tex]

where vo = (3.00i -2.00j) m/s and a = (2.00i + 4.50j)m/s^2

where;

p = momentum

m = mass = 3000kg

v = velocity = 25m/s

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The first thing we need to do is convert 90km/h to m/s. Our conversion factors here are: 1km = 1000m and 1h = 3600s

[tex]90km/h(\frac{1000m}{1km})(\frac{1h}{3600s} )=25m/s[/tex]

Rachel is looking at a swamp. She sees sandhill cranes swooping by, algae on a pond, small snails, fungi, and some fish. Explain how the organisms Rachel sees are connected and how they all help the swamp ecosystem thrive.

Answers

Answer:

The organisms Rachel see are all inter dependent on one another to survive in the form of a food chain. This relationship helps the swamp ecosystem thrive.

Explanation:

In this swamp ecosystem, the Sandhill crane relies on the fishes for food, Some of the fishes rely on the algae or the snail for food and the snail also rely on the algae for food. This relationship not only serves to nourish the organism above the food chain but serves a general purpose of controlling the ecosystem. The absence of one or more of these organisms, say the algae can offset the ecosystem in a chain reaction that might go as far as affecting the cranes. Also, the absence of algae feeders can lead to an algae boom which might overpower the oxygen concentration in the pond further killing other organisms in the pond that need oxygen for respiration.

Explanation

wave is a disturbance which travels through a medium carrying energy from one point to another without causing any permanent displacement in that medium. So energy is carried by a wave.

Which statement is true about the loudness of a sound?

A.) it is directly proportional to the distance of the listener from the source.

B.) it is inversely proportional to the square of the distance of the listener from the source.

C.) it is directly proportional to the square of the distance between the listener from the source.

D.) it is inversely proportional to the distance between the listener from the source.

Answers

Answer:

The Answer is B

Explanation: The loudness is shared among the listener and source

Answer : The correct option is, (B)

Explanation :

There is a direct relation between the loudness of sound and the intensity of sound.

[tex]L=10 log \frac{I}{Ia} }[/tex]  ..........(1)

where,

L = loudness of sound

I = intensity of sound

= intensity of reference

From this we conclude that the loudness is directly proportional to the intensity of the sound.

There is an indirect relation between the intensity of sound and the distance of the listener from the source.

[tex]\frac{I_1 }{I_2 } = (\frac{d_1}{d_2} )^{2}[/tex]   ...................(2)

From this we conclude that the intensity of sound is inversely proportional to the square of the distance of the listener from the source.

From equation (1) and (2) we conclude that the loudness of sound is inversely proportional to the square of the distance of the listener from the source.

Hence, the correct option is, (B)
