Please give answer. Describe, with the aid of suitable diagrams, the basic structure and components of the ATLAS detector at the LHC.
In a globular cluster, astronomers (someday) discover a star with the same mass as our Sun, but consisting entirely of hydrogen and helium. Is this star a good place to point our SETI antennas and search for radio signals from an advanced civilization? Group of answer choices   No, because such a star (and any planets around it) would not have the heavier elements (carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, etc.) that we believe are necessary to start life as we know it.   Yes, because globular clusters are among the closest star clusters to us, so that they would be easy to search for radio signals.   Yes, because we have already found radio signals from another civilization living near a star in a globular cluster.   No, because such a star would most likely not have a stable (main-sequence) stage that is long enough for a technological civilization to develop.   Yes, because such a star is probably old and a technological civilization will have had a long time to evolve and develop there.
Please answer the question and its subquestions entirely! This is one question with two subquestions. According to the official Bartleby guidelines, I am alowed to have up to two subquestion!   1) Astronauts orbiting the earth in the space shuttle experience a force of gravity that is     several times greater than the Fgrav experienced on Earth's surface.     several times smaller than the Fgrav experienced on Earth's surface.     a fraction greater than the Fgrav experienced on Earth's surface.     a fraction smaller than the Fgrav experienced on Earth's surface .     ... nonsense! Orbiting astronauts do not experience any gravitational pull from the earth. a) A space shuttle is in orbit about the earth at an altitude where the acceleration due to gravity is 8.70 m/s 2. What is the shuttle's speed at this altitude?     2.65 × 10 3 m/s     7.45 × 10 3 m/s     7.68 × 10 3 m/s     7.91 × 10 3 m/s b) A 9 × 10 3 kg satellite with an…
