Telescopes are an essential tool for astronomers to study the universe. You plan to build your own telescope that can resolve the Great Red Spot on the surface of Jupiter at a wavelength of
600 nm. The farthest distance between the Earth and Jupiter is 968 x 106 km and the Great Red
Spot has currently a diameter of 16,500 km.
(a) Use the Rayleigh criterion to determine the diameter of the lens' aperture of your telescope
that is needed to resolve the Great Red Spot on Jupiter.
Impacts have formed many craters on the Moon's surface. You would like to study some of the
craters with your new telescope. The distance between Moon and Earth is 384,400 km.
(b) What is the smallest possible size of the craters that your telescope can resolve?​

What is the ultimate purpose of the nuclear reaction in a nuclear power plant? -the reaction is used to create a magnetic field. -the reaction is used to create temperatures high enough to generate steam. -the reaction is used to create a high pressure system used to spin the turbine of the generator. -the reaction is used to prevent chain reactions. in a safety seminar at a nuclear power plant, a technician describes the procedure used if temperatures in the reactor become too high. what procedures should the technician describe? select all that apply. -more coolant will be pumped into the reactor. -the control rods will be taken out of the reactor. -the fuels rods will be lowered into the reactor. -the control rods will be lowered into the reactor. during a lab experiment demonstrating the relationship between pressure and water, mr. demming puts a beaker of water into a vacuum chamber. once the chamber is sealed, mr. demming turns the vacuum on. as the pump starts to take air out of the chamber, the air pressure inside drops relative to the pressure outside the chamber. after a few minutes, there is next to no air pressure in the chamber. what do you expect to observe in the experiment? -the beaker of water will crack. -the boiling point of the water will decrease and begin to boil at room temperature. -the boiling point of the water will increase, and will only boil at temperatures higher than 212 degrees f. -the liquid water will expand and spill out of the beaker since the air pressure no longer compresses the water molecules.
