Suppose that a comet that was seen in 563 a.d. by chinese astronomers was spotted again in year 1951. assume the time between observations is the period of the comet and take its eccentricity as 0.986. what are (a) the semimajor axis of the comet's orbit and (b) its greatest distance from the sun?

Antireflective coatings on solar cells are often made by applying a thin film of silicon nitride (sinx), which has an index of refractive of 1.2, on the top of the silicon solar cell, which has a refractive index of about 3.5. however, the sun emits radiation of various wavelengths which the solar cell absorbs, and the antireflective coating can only absolutely minimize the reflection of one of these wavelengths. the coating thickness is chosen to reduce the reflection of green/yellow light (e = 2.2 ev), which is the most intense color in the solar spectrum (shown below). which of the following coatings would minimize reflection of green/yellow light? the answer is 820 nm how? what is the angular width of the central maximum of an electron traveling at 2 x 108 m/s going through a single slit of width 1 mm.

Steelhead trout migrate up stream to spawn.occasionally they need to leap up small waterfalls to continue their journey. fortunately, steelhead are remarkable jumpers, capable of leaving the water at a speed of 8.0 m/s. a. what is the maximum height a steelhead trout can jump? b.leaving the water at 8.0 m/s, the trout lands on top of the water fall 1.8 m high. how long was it in the air?
