An astronomer is studying galaxies of stars that are very far away and thus look extremely faint (using visible light). What kind of telescope should she and her graduate students apply for time on?
A. any telescope will show faint galaxies well; they should just use the one closest to their campus
B. a telescope with a small aperture but with eyepieces that have good magnification
C. a telescope built before 1948
D. the telescope with the biggest aperture possible

There is a theory that indicates that dinosaurs became extinct when about 65 million years ago, a large asteroid hit the earth surface. dust caused by this collision blocked the sunlight reaching the earth's surface and many forms of life became extinct due to the cold. fearing this threat, how large the radius of an asteroid should you be looking for if the dangerous asteroid size is approximately the same as the one that killed the dinosaurs? available data suggests that about 18% of that asteroid's mass ended up as a dust spread evenly over earth after eventually settling out of the upper atmosphere. about 0.0180 g/cm^2 of dust, which is chemically different than the earth's rock, covered the earth's surface. typical asteroids have a density of about 1.9 g/cm^3. now that we know the size of the asteroid, how much energy was released during impact, assuming all of it was just the kinetic energy of the asteroid right before the impact?

Did the proton move into a region of higher potential or lower potential? did the proton move into a region of higher potential or lower potential? because the proton is a negative charge and it accelerates as it travels, it must be moving from a region of higher potential to a region of lower potential.because the proton is a negative charge and it accelerates as it travels, it must be moving from a region of lower potential to a region of higher potential.because the proton is a positive charge and it slows down as it travels, it must be moving from a region of higher potential to a region of lower potential.because the proton is a positive charge and it slows down as it travels, it must be moving from a region of lower potential to a region of higher potential.request answerpart bwhat was the potential difference that stopped the proton? express your answer with the appropriate units.î”v î” v = nothingnothingrequest answerpart cwhat was the initial kinetic energy of the proton, in electron volts? express your answer in electron volts.ki k i = nothing ev request answerprovide feedback
