When distances were carefully measured from the Earth to globular clusters above and below the Milky Way plane (where our view of them is not obscured by interstellar dust and gas), their distribution was found to be A) spherically symmetric about a point in the constellation Sagittarius and concentrated in that direction.
B) in a relatively flat disk almost perpendicular to the plane of the Galaxy, with a relatively higher density of clusters toward its center.
C) concentrated in the plane of the Milky Way and clustered around the Sun's position, indicating that the Sun is close to the Galaxy's center.
D) uniformly distributed throughout space, with no concentration in any area of the Milky Way.

There is a theory that indicates that dinosaurs became extinct when about 65 million years ago, a large asteroid hit the earth surface. dust caused by this collision blocked the sunlight reaching the earth's surface and many forms of life became extinct due to the cold. fearing this threat, how large the radius of an asteroid should you be looking for if the dangerous asteroid size is approximately the same as the one that killed the dinosaurs? available data suggests that about 18% of that asteroid's mass ended up as a dust spread evenly over earth after eventually settling out of the upper atmosphere. about 0.0180 g/cm^2 of dust, which is chemically different than the earth's rock, covered the earth's surface. typical asteroids have a density of about 1.9 g/cm^3. now that we know the size of the asteroid, how much energy was released during impact, assuming all of it was just the kinetic energy of the asteroid right before the impact?
