What are the approximate dimensions of the smallest object on Earth that astronauts can resolve by eye when they are orbiting 275 km above the Earth

   s_400 = 16.5 m , s_700 = 29.4 m

Explanation:

The limit of the human eye's solution is determined by the diffraction limit that is given by the expression

                   θ = 1.22 λ / D

where you lick the wavelength and D the mediator of the circular aperture.

In our case, the dilated pupil has a diameter of approximately 8 mm = 8 10-3 m and the eye responds to a wavelength between 400 nm and 700 nm.

by introducing these values into the formula

λ = 400 nm      θ = 1.22 400 10⁻⁹ / 8 10⁻³ = 6 10⁻⁵ rad

λ = 700 nm     θ = 1.22 700 10⁻⁹ / 8 10⁻³-3 = 1.07 10⁻⁴ rad

Now we can use the definition radians

          θ= s / R

where s is the supported arc and R is the radius. Let's find the sarcos for each case

λ = 400 nm       s_400 = θ R

                         S_400 = 6 10⁻⁵ 275 10³

                         s_400 = 16.5 m

λ = 700 nm s_ 700 = 1.07 10⁻⁴ 275 10³

                          s_700 = 29.4 m

increasing transnational kinetic energy. because the transnational kinetic energy formula consists of only two variables, mass and velocity, increasing one of those properties is the only way to increase an object's transnational kinetic energy. increases to mass and velocity, however, do not have the same impact.
