A 910-kg object is released from rest at an altitude of 1200 km above the north pole of the earth. If we ignore atmospheric friction, with what speed does the object strike the surface of the earth? (G = 6.67 × 10-11 N ∙ m2/kg2, Mearth = 5.97 × 1024 kg, the polar radius of the earth is 6357 km) 2.7 km/s 3.2 km/s 4.8 km/s 4.5 km/s 2.2 km/s

Glass is transparent to visibile light under normal conditions; however, at extremely high intensities, glass will absorb most of the light incident upon it. this works through a process known as multiphoton absorption. in this process, several photons are absorbed at the same time. if very intense light whose photons carry 2ev of energy is shined onto a material with a band gap of 4ev, that light can be absorbed through two-photon absorption, because two photons have the right amount of energy to bridge the band gap. what is the minimum number of photons of 800-nm light that are needed to equal or exceed the band gap of fused silica glass

Aparticle initially moving east with a speed of 20.0 m/s, experiences an acceleration of 3.95 m/s, north for a time of 8.00 s. what was the speed of the particle after this acceleration, in units of m/s? give the answer as a positive number.
