The national aeronautics and space administration (nasa) studies the physiological effects of large accelerations on astronauts. some of these studies use a machine known as a centrifuge. this machine consists of a long arm, to one end of which is attached a chamber in which the astronaut sits. the other end of the arm is connected to an axis about which the arm and chamber can be rotated. the astronaut moves on a circular path, much like a model airplane flying in a circle on a guideline. the chamber is located 13.0 m from the center of the circle. at what speed must the chamber move so that an astronaut is subjected to 4.50 times the acceleration due to gravity?

The place you get your hair cut has two nearly parallel mirrors 6.00 m apart. as you sit in the chair, your head is 2.00 m from the nearer mirror. looking toward this mirror, you first see your face and then, farther away, the back of your head. (the mirrors need to be slightly nonparallel for you to be able to see the back of your head, but you can treat them as parallel in this problem.) how far away does the back of your head appear to be?

As you are trying to move a heavy box of mass m, you realize that it is too heavy for you to lift by yourself. there is no one around to , so you attach an ideal pulley to the box and a massless rope to the ceiling, which you wrap around the pulley. you pull up on the rope to lift the box. use g for the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity and neglect friction forces. once you have pulled hard enough to start the box moving upward, what is the magnitude f of the upward force you must apply to the rope to start raising the box with constant velocity? express the magnitude of the force in terms of m, the mass of the box.
