Future space stations and spacecraft may create "artificial gravity" by rotating. Consider a cylindrical space station with a radius of 894 m that rotates about its central axis. The inside surface of the cylinder is the floor of the space station upon which the astronauts live and work. What period (in s) of rotation is necessary for a 70 kg astronaut to have the same weight as she has on Earth?

You throw a baseball directly upward at time t = 0 at an initial speed of 12.3 m/s. what is the maximum height the ball reaches above where it leaves your hand? at what times does the ball pass through half the maximum height? ignore air resistance and take g = 9.80 m/s2.

Act has a 1200: 5 or 240: 1 turns ratio. it is short circuited. what is the maximum current at 1200a primary if we put a 100ohm resistor across the secondary end of the ct. use it as current source circuit.

Alinearly polarized electromagnetic wave has an average intensity of 196 w/m^2. this wave is directed towards two ideal polarizers (in real polarizers, transmission is also effected by reflection and absorption). polarizer a is oriented with its transmission axis at an angle of θ_1=20.8∘ with the incident electric field. polarizer b has its axis at an angle of θ_2=63.0∘ with the incident electric field. what is the average intensity of the wave after it passes through polarizer a? what is the average intensity of the wave after it passes through polarizer b? suppose that the two polarizers a and b are interchanged. what would the average intensity be after passing through both polarizers?
