Refracting telescope: The objective and the eyepiece of a refracting astronomical telescope have focal lengths of 320 cm and 4.0 cm, respectively. The telescope is used to view Neptune and the final image is set at infinity. The diameter of Neptune is 4.96 × 107 m and the distance from the earth at the time of observation is 4.4 × 1012 m. What is the angle (in mrad) subtended by the final telescopic image of Neptune?

Maria owns a small convenience store, and unfortunately very small, shoplifting related losses occur at her store quite frequently (at least once per week). For the past year she has hired a security guard to attempt to minimize the likelihood of shoplifting occurring. However, after her own analysis she believes she is paying too much for the security guard’s services. Instead of paying for risk prevention technique, Maria has made the decision to set aside money each month to pay for these very low severity and rather predictable shoplifting losses. Which method of risk financing is Maria practicing?

The magnetic field in the figure is decreasing at the rate 0.45 T/s. (e = 1.60 x10-19 C, mproton = 1.67×10-27 kg) a) What is the magnitude of the acceleration of a proton at rest at point a? What is the direction of acceleration of point a? b) What is the magnitude of the acceleration of a proton at rest at point d? What is the direction of acceleration of point d?
