Apossible means of space flight is to place a perfectly reflectingaluminized sheet into orbit around the earth and then use the lightfrom the sun to push this "solar sail." suppose a sail of area5.00 105 m2 and mass 6300 kg is placed in orbit facing the sun.

(a) what force is exerted on the sail?
n
(b) what is the sail's acceleration?
m/s2
(c) what time interval is required for the sail to reach the moon,3.84 multiplied by 108 maway? ignore all gravitational effects, assume the accelerationcalculated in part (b) remains constant, and assume a solarintensity of 1370 w/m2.
days

Agalvanometer has an internal resistance of 100 ω and deflects full-scale at 2.00 ma. what size resistor should be added to the galvanometer to convert it to a milliammeter capable of reading up to 4.00 ma, and how should this resistor be connected to the galvanometer?

Three different objects, all with different masses, are initially at rest at the bottom of a set of steps. each step is of uniform height . the mass of each object is a multiple of the base mass : object 1 has mass 4..00m , object 2 has mass 1..96m , and object 3 has mass . when the objects are at the bottom of the steps, define the total gravitational potential energy of the three-object system to be zero. if the objects are then relocated as shown, what is the new total potential energy of the system? each answer requires the numerical coefficient to an algebraic expression. each algebraic expression is given using some combination of the variables , , and , where is the acceleration due to gravity. enter only the numerical coefficient. (example: if the answer is 1..23mgd , just enter 1.23)
