Determine the poles of the magnet. Look at the three compass readings that are on top of the magnet. Label the end the compass points away from as "S" (south), and the other end that the compass points toward as "N" (north).
Record these poles in Figure 1.

Intro

The astronauts on the space shuttle flights experienced an acceleration of 29 m/s2 (about 3 "g's") during lift-off. what upward force must the astronaut's seat apply to the astronaut in order to cause this acceleration? assume the astronaut's mass is 70 kg, and compute this force when the acceleration is near the earth's surface so their weight equals latex: mg m g .
