he composition of the ancient atmosphere can be determined by analyzing bubbles of air trapped in amber, which is fossilized tree resin. (This is one way we know that the air in the time of the dinosaurs was richer in oxygen than our current atmosphere.) An air bubble appears to be 7.2 mm below the flat surface of a piece of amber, which has index of refraction 1.54. How long a needle is required to reach the bubble

Two manned satellites approaching one another at a relative speed of 0.550 m/s intend to dock. the first has a mass of 2.50 ✕ 103 kg, and the second a mass of 7.50 ✕ 103 kg. assume that the positive direction is directed from the second satellite towards the first satellite. (a) calculate the final velocity after docking, in the frame of reference in which the first satellite was originally at rest.(b) what is the loss of kinetic energy in this inelastic collision? (c) repeat both parts, in the frame of reference in which the second satellite was originally at rest. final velocity(d) loss of kinetic energy = ?
