Why are telescopes normally placed at higher elevations?

Acylindrical specimen of a nickel alloy having an elastic modulus of 207 gpa (30 × 106psi) and an original diameter of 10.2 mm (0.40 in.) experiences only elastic deformation when a tensile load of 8900 n (2000 lbf) is applied. compute the maximum length of the specimen before deformation if the maximum allowable elongation is 0.25 mm (0.010 in.)

When a vertical beam of light passes through a transparent medium, the rate at which its intensity i decreases is proportional to i(t), where t represents the thickness of the medium (in feet). in clear seawater, the intensity 3 feet below the surface is 25% of the initial intensity i0 of the incident beam. what is the intensity of the beam "10" feet below the surface? (give your answer in terms of i0. round any constants or coefficients to five decimal places.)

Blood pressure the total amount of blood the heart pumps in one minute 2. cardiac output the number of times your heart beats in a minute 3. dilate the amount of blood that the heart can pump in a single beat 4. heart rate the force exerted on the walls of the blood vessels by the blood that moves through them 5. stroke volume to widen or get larger in size
