During the summer of 2015, the New Horizon space probe provided the first fly by images of the dwarf planet Pluto. The NASA engineers were amazed to see mountains as high as 3,500 meters displayed across the icy surface. They also observed a canyon that is 7 to 9 kilometers deep. One of the most amazing things about the entire massion was the ability of a space probe, about the size of a piano to travel the enormous distance to the Kuiper Belt object. Which of the following distances best reflects the distance the New Horizon traveled from Earth to Pluto?

A= 32.63 astronomical units

B= 4.67 Light years

C= 7 million kilometers

D= 600,000 miles

Calculate the minimum energy required to remove one proton from the nucleus 126c. this is called the proton-removal energy. (hint: find the difference between the mass of a 126c nucleus and the mass of a proton plus the mass of the nucleus formed when a proton is removed from 126c.) express your answer with the appropriate units. emin e m i n = nothing nothing request answer part b how does the proton-removal energy for 126c compare to the binding energy per nucleon for 126c, calculated using eb=(zmh+nmn−azm)c2?
