How much more light can the james webb space telescope (with its 6-m diameter mirror) gather than the hubble space telescope (with a diameter of 2.4 m)?

James Webb Space Telescope has 6.25 times the light collecting area than the mirror of Hubble Space Telescope.

Explanation:

Radius of Hubble Space Telescope mirror = 2.4/2 = 1.2 m

Radius of James Webb Space Telescope mirror = 6/2 = 3 m

Area of mirror of Hubble Space Telescope= πr² = π × 1.2² = 4.52 m²

Area of mirror of James Webb Space Telescope = π × 3² = 28.27 m²

Ratio of mirror area

[tex]\frac{A_J}{A_H}=\frac{28.27}{4.52}\\\Rightarrow A_J=6.25A_H[\tex]

mirror of James Webb Space Telescope has 6.25 times the area of mirror of Hubble Space Telescope.

Which means the James Webb Space Telescope has 6.25 times the light collecting area than the mirror of Hubble Space Telescope.

"i have always loved contemporary art and made it a general goal to work within the field. after a few nonprofit internships at museums and galleries, i decided to try the for-profit art world and was offered a job as the ad assistant at the magazine. i much prefer the pace of the for-profit art community and have stayed with the company for three years, with a promotion to an account manager last spring."

i just did this and got a 100.
