Answer:

Gran Telescopio Canarias

Explanation:

There are numerous giant telescopes all over the world which give us amazingly details data of the Universe. These work in various wavelengths. Talking about the telescopes which operates in visible wavelengths, the largest operational telescope will be Gran Telescopio Canarias.  This telescope has an aperture of 10.4m. It is situated in Canary Island, Spain.

In future larger telescopes such as Thirty Meter Telescope and EELT will will make it look like a small telescope.

What causes convection currents, and what do they do?
frez [133]

Answer:

Convection currents are the result of different heating. Lighter material (warm) rises while heavier (cold) material sinks. This movement of the materials is what causes convection currents! (BTW, it happens in water, in the atmosphere, and in the mantle of Earth!

In proof testing of circuit boards, the probability that any particular diode will fail is 0.01. Suppose a circuit board contain
Sergio039 [100]

Answer: 2 diodes

Explanation:

Given : In proof testing of circuit boards, the probability that any particular diode will fail is 0.01.

The number of diodes contained by circuit board = 200

Then , the expected number of diodes to fail is given by :-

0.01\times200=2

Therefore, there are 2 diodes that we will expect to fail.

Linh builds a circuit from the diagram shown. Which bulb could Linh remove from the circuit to make all of the other bulbs stop
LenKa [72]

Answer:

4

Explanation:

In order for the current to continue flowing through the circuit (and for the bulbs to continue shining), there must be a closed path containing the battery where current can flow. Let's see the effect of removing each bulb on the circuit:

- 1: when removing bulb 1 only, the current can still flow through the path battery-bulb 3- bulb 4

- 2: when removing bulb 2 only, the current can still flow through the path battery-bulb 3- bulb 4

- 3: when removing bulb 3 only, the current can still flow through the path battery-bulb 1-bulb 2- bulb 4

- 4: when removing bulb 4 only, the current can no longer flow. In fact, there is no closed path that contains the battery now, so the current will not flow and all the bulbs will stop shining.
