Docking ExercisePreparing for the return to space, NASA needs to train astronauts in spacecraft docking. Besides simulators, they want to train with actual vehicles, but we have no spacecraft touse. That and budget cuts have led to the use of a computer controlled go cart and a semitractor trailer with a 5 meter long ramp. In the trailer is a firmly mounted mini dockingring at the top of the ramp and the go cart has a matching tunnel mounted on the front sothat it will slip into the docking ring and latch. The computer on the go cart has a verysimple set of commands. Each program step specifies a time interval in seconds and eitheran acceleration in m/s2 or a velocity in m/s which is to be used for that interval. You canonly specify a velocity to maintain if you are already moving at that velocity. The cart hassensors which provide distance from the back of the trailer and velocity relative to theground and velocity relative to the trailer. The starting configuration has the cart moving at 5 m/s relative to the road and 200meters from the bottom of the ramp (205 meters from the docking ring). The truck ismoving at 15 m/s relative to the road. You are to achieve docking within 200 seconds andthe docking clamps need a 0.3 m/s impact speed to set the latches. For safety, youraccelerations should all be less than 5gâs (49 m/s2) and your velocity relative to the truckshould be less than 3 m/s when you are within 15 meters of the ramp (20 meters fromdocking).There is no unique answer for this problem, but do check to make sure that your cartdoesnât accelerate past the docking ring. A good way to check your solution is to use aspreadsheet with 1 row per second and calculate the distance to docking at each second. This isnât hard, but it does require attention to details and you will likely learn somethingabout how many variables you can specify without creating a conflict. Your Solution: velocity in m/s, acceleration in m/s2.

Some material consisting of a collection of microscopic objects is kept at a high temperature. a photon detector capable of detecting photon energies from infrared through ultraviolet observes photons emitted with energies of 0.3 ev, 0.5 ev, 0.8 ev, 2.0ev, 2.5ev, and 2.8ev. these are the only photon energies observed. (a) draw and label a possible energy-level diagram for one of the microscopic objects, which has four bound states. on the diagram, indicate the transitions corresponding to the emitted photons. explain briefly. (b) would a springâmass model be a good model for these microscopic objects? why or why not? (c) the material is now cooled down to a very low temperature, and the photon detector stops detecting photon emissions. next, a beam of light with a continuous range of energies from infrared through ultraviolet shines on the material, and the photon detector observes the beam of light after it passes through the material. what photon energies in this beam of light are observed to be significantly reduced in intensity (âdark absorption linesâ)? explain briefly.
