Increasing the telescope diameter beyond the value found in part (a) will increase the light-gathering power of the telescope, allowing more distant and dimmer astronomical objects to be studied, but it will not improve the resolution. In what ways are the Keck telescopes (each of 10-m diameter) atop Mauna Kea in Hawaii superior to the Hale Telescope (5-m diameter) on Palomar Mountain in California

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Ability of the Keck telescope to capture more distant object despite been atop Mauna kea that Hale Telescope may not capture even if it is atop Palomar mountain in California

Explanation:

If increasing the Diameter of a Telescope beyond a given value will increase the ability of the telescope to capture more light and also capture astronomical objects located in a very distant position without improving resolution.

Hence the superiority of Keck telescope atop Mauna Kea over Hale Telescope atop Palomar mountain in California is the ability of the Keck telescope to capture more distant object despite been atop Mauna kea that Hale Telescope may not capture even if it is atop Palomar mountain in California

Answers

Answer:

a) T = 1.69 s, b)  k = 0.825 N / m, c)  v = 1.46 feet/s, d) a = 5.41 ft / s²,

e)   v = - 1,319 ft / s,    a = - 2.70 ft / s², f) K = 4.8 10⁻³ J, U = 1.49 10⁻³ J

Explanation:

In a mass-spring system with simple harmonic motion, the angular velocity is

         w = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }[/tex]

a) find the period

angular velocity, frequency, and period are related

         w = 2π f = 2π / T

          f = 1 / T

          T = 1 / f

           T = 1 / 0.59

           T = 1.69 s

b) the spring constant

         w = 2π f

         w = 2π 0.59

         w = 3.70 rad / s

         w² = k / m

          k = w² m

          k = 3.70² 0.060

          k = 0.825 N / m

c) the maximum speed

simple harmonic movement is described by the expression

          x = A cos (wt + Ф)

speed is defined by

         v =[tex]\frac{dx}{dt}[/tex]

          v = -A w sin (wt + fi)

the speed is maximum when the cosine is ± 1

          v = A w

          v = 0.394 3.70

          v = 1.46 feet/s

d) maximum acceleration

            a = [tex]\frac{dv}{dt}[/tex]

            a = - A w² cos wt + fi

the acceleration is maximum when the cosine is ±1

            a = A w²

            a = 0.394 3.70²

            a = 5.41 ft / s²

e) velocity and acceleration for x = 6 cm

let's reduce the cm to feet

            x = 6 cm (1 foot / 30.48 cm) = 0.1969 foot

Before doing this part we must find the phase angle (Ф), the most common way to start the movement is to move the spring a small distance and release it, so its initial speed is zero for t = 0 s

let's use the expression for the velocity

           v = -A w sin (0 + Фi)

           0 = - A w sin Ф

so sin Ф = 0 which implies that Фi = 0

the equation of motion is

            x = A cos wt

            x = 0.394 cos 3.70t

we substitute

           0.1969 = 0.394 cos 370t

           3.70 t = cos⁻¹ (0.1969 / 0.394)

let's not forget that the angle is in radians

           3.70, t = 1.047

           t = 1.047 / 3.70

           t = 0.2826 s

we substitute this time in the equation for velocity and acceleration

           v = - Aw sin wt

           v = - 0.394 3.70 sin 3.70 0.2826

           v = - 1,319 ft / s

           a = - A w² cos wt

           a = - 0.394 3.70² cos 3.70 0.2826

           a = - 2.70 ft / s²

f) the kinetic and potential energy at this point

           K = ½ m v²

let's slow down to the SI system

           v = 1.319 ft / s (1 m / 3.28 ft) = 0.402 m / s

           

           K = ½ 0.060 0.402²

           K = 4.8 10⁻³ J

           U = ½ k x²

           U = ½ 0.825 0.06²

           U = 1.49 10⁻³ J

Answers

Answer:

[tex]4.12\times 10^{-5}\ J[/tex].

Explanation:

Given that,

Capacitance, [tex]C=1.4\times 10^{-7}\ F[/tex]

Charge stored in the capacitor, [tex]Q=3.4\times 10^{-6}\ C[/tex]

We need to find the electric potential energy stored in the capacitor. The formula for the electric potential energy stored in the capacitor is given by :

[tex]E=\dfrac{Q^2}{2C}[/tex]

Put all the values,

[tex]E=\dfrac{(3.4\times 10^{-6})^2}{2\times 1.4\times 10^{-7}}\\\\=4.12\times 10^{-5}\ J[/tex]

So, the required electric potential eenergy is equal to [tex]4.12\times 10^{-5}\ J[/tex].
