Answer:

e. Doubles.

Explanation:

Resolving power is given by the formula as follows :

\dfrac{1}{d\theta}=\dfrac{D}{1.22\lambda}

Here, d\theta is the angle subtended by two distant objects

D is diameter of the telescope

Here, the diameter of a radar dish is doubled, assuming all other factors remain unchanged, then the resolving power gets doubled. Hence, the correct option is (e).

If an electric wire is allowed to produce a magnetic field no larger than that of the Earth (0.55 x 10-4 T) at a distance of 25
antiseptic1488 [7]

we are given in the problem the following dimensions or specifications 
B = 0.000055 T r = 0.25 m constant mu0 = 4*pi*10-7 

The formula that is applicable from physics is 
B = mu0*I/(2*pi*r) I = 2*B*pi*r/mu0 I = 68.75 Amperes

Suppose you want to make a scale model of a hydrogen atom. You choose, for the nucleus, a small ball bearing with a radius of 1.
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

A)  x _electron = 0.66 10² m , B)   x _Eart = 1.13 10² m , C)  d_sphere = 1.37 10⁻² mm

Explanation:

A) Let's use a ball for the nucleus, the electron is at a farther distance the sphere for the electron must be at a distance of

Let's use proportions rule

                x_ electron = 0.529 10⁻¹⁰ /1.2 10⁻¹⁵ 1.5

               x _electron = 0.66 10⁵ mm = 0.66 10² m

B) the radii of the Earth and the sun are

               R_{E} = 6.37 10⁶ m

                tex]R_{Sum}[/tex] = 6.96 10⁸ m

                Distance = 1.5 10¹¹ m

                x_Earth = 1.5 10¹¹ / 6.96 10⁸  1.5

                x _Eart = 1.13 10² m

C) The radius of a sphere that represents the earth, if the sphere that represents the sun is 1.5 mm, let's use another rule of proportions

            d_sphere = 1.5 / 6.96 10⁸  6.37 10⁶

            d_sphere = 1.37 10⁻² mm
