As you'll learn in the next module, astronomers use lots of different kinds of telescopes that work at different wavelengths across the EM spectrum. We have optical telescopes, like the Hubble, but also radio telescopes, infrared telescopes, UV telescopes, X-ray telescopes, etc. Say you wanted to study brown dwarfs - stellar-like objects that are a bit smaller and cooler than "regular" stars (we'll learn more about these later on in the course). Brown dwarf surface temperatures average around 1000K. What type of telescope should you use? i. e. what wavelength range should it operate at to have the best chance of detecting these types of stars? Explain your reasoning clearly and show your work.

The pressure, volume, and temperature of a mole of an ideal gas are related by the equation pv = 8.31t, where p is measured in kilopascals, v in liters, and t in kelvins. use differentials to find the approximate change in the pressure if the volume increases from 14 l to 14.6 l and the temperature decreases from 375 k to 370 k. (round the answer to two decimal places.)

Imagine you work as a consultant, and your daily job involves listening to the constructive criticism of others. as part of your job, you must listen to opposing viewpoints to make important decisions. in this activity, you are a consulting dam engineer. you must make a decision about four different dams; should they be repaired, taken down, or left alone? you will listen to contrasting opinions about what should be done with the dams before you make the final decision. as the consulting dam engineer, what do you decide to do with this dam? explain your reasoning. by making your decision, did you support the opinions of the mayor and/or the dam safety official? why or why not?
