Many young stars in new clusters appear to be surrounded by a blue, nebulous haze. The physical process that produces this blue nebulosity is
a. mission from transitions in hydrogen atoms, predominantly in the blue part of the visible spectrum. b. the preferential scattering of blue starlight by very fine dust grains in the interstellar medium. c. emission from molecular species, particularly methane, CH4, whose emission bands are in the blue part of the visible spectrum. d. thermal (blackbody) emission from interstellar gas heated to 10,000 K by UV radiation from nearby hot, young stars
Thin Lenses: A thin lens projects an image of a man as shown in the figure. Rays marked A, B, and C travel to the lens from the man's ear. Draw the paths of these three rays after they have passed through the lens. Note that A is parallel to the principal axis, B goes through the center of the lens, C goes through the focal point on the left, and the point marked f is the focal point on the right of the lens.
