The objective lens of a certain refracting telescope has a diameter of 63.5 cm. The telescope is mounted in a satellite that orbits the Earth at an altitude of 265 km to view objects on the Earth's surface. Assuming an average wavelength of 500 nm, find the minimum distance between two objects on the ground if their images are to be resolved by this lens.

The temperature at a point (x, y) is t(x, y), measured in degrees celsius. a bug crawls so that its position after t seconds is given by x = 6 + t , y = 8 + 1 3 t, where x and y are measured in centimeters. the temperature function satisfies tx(3, 9) = 5 and ty(3, 9) = 4. how fast is the temperature rising on the bug's path after 3 seconds? (round your answer to two decimal places.)
