<p>@Hawkace‌ a lot of schools require you to send all subject tests</p>

<p>“Quasars live only in galaxies with supermassive black holes — black holes that contain billions of times the mass of the sun.” @ space.com.
it does say
"Most quasars have been found billions of light-years away. Because it takes light time to travel, studying objects in space functions much like a time machine; we see the object as it was when light left it, billions of years ago. Thus, the farther away scientists look, the farther back in time they can see. Most of the more than 2,000 known quasars existed in the early life of the galaxy. "
however its worth pointing out that galaxy formation is usually classified after the early universe.
I am 90% confident the answer is black holes</p>

<p>It is likely that more than one of the statements was true. However, it asks for which can be concluded from the information and I’m still not seeing how you can conclude anything about black holes DIRECTLY from the fact a quasar was observed 5 billion light years away, unless of course I’m not remembering the whole question. Quasars were abundant in the early universe(I googled this since I admittedly know little about them) so whether that’s true or not isn’t the question. It comes down to which is the best conclusion based on what is given in the question.</p>

<p>I used both PR and Kaplan for practice tests (mostly PR though), but found this test much harder. </p>

<p><a href=“Chronology of the universe - Wikipedia”>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronology_of_the_universe&lt;/a&gt;
control find Quasars, they are not categorized to to have formed during the early universe</p>

<p>The third phase started after a short dark age with a universe whose fundamental particles and forces were as we know them, and witnessed the emergence of large scale stable structures, such as the earliest stars, quasars, galaxies, clusters of galaxies and superclusters, and the development of these to create the kind of universe we see today. </p>

<p>Quasars were found at the beginning of OUR universe.</p>

<p>That question was BS though.</p>

<p>Anyone want to make a google doc?</p>

<p>What was the answer to the question about light entering a prism underwater?</p>

<p>@Aarol123‌ I got “same width”, not sure if correct though</p>

<p>What was the answer to which is the functionality of the following based on; I think there was a speakerphone, electric motor or something</p>

<p>answer is smaller width of arc</p>

<p>To joppaa’s question, I said that opposites repel. I had no idea though.</p>

<p>Here’s the doc- please add stuff guys, I put everything I know</p>

<p>What do you guys predict the curve to be?</p>

<p>58 is 800 I think, test was harder than the one in the blue book</p>

<p>58 seems quite low ^^^</p>

<p>well 59 was the curve in the blue book and this test was def harder, I think 58 would be on the high side</p>

<p>58 would be awesome.</p>

<p>lol pretty sure I completely bombed this</p>
