a. 3.6 A
c. 1000 A
b. 1.0 A

Resolution: The world's largest refracting telescope is operated at the Yerkes Observatory in Wisconsin. It has an objective lens of diameter of 1.02 m. Suppose such an instrument were mounted on a satellite at an elevation of 300 km above the ground and used to map surface details. If the telescope is forming images with light of wavelength 550 nm, what is the minimum separation of two objects on the ground whose separation could be clearly resolved by this lens?

An alloy of 73.9 atomic % tin (Sn) and 26.1 atomic % lead (Pb) is mixed and heated to 250°C. See the lead tin phase diagram in Figure 5.11a.
(a) At 250°C what phases are present, what are their chemical compositions, and what is the atom fraction of each phase?
(b) This Pb-Sn mixture is then cooled to room temperature (25°C). What phases are present, what are their chemical compositions, and what is the atom fraction of each phase present?
