Astronomers estimate that new stars form in our galaxy at the rate of about

The a992 steel rod bc has a diameter of 50 mm and is used as a strut to support the beam. determine the maximum intensity w of the uniform distributed load that can be applied to the beam without risk of causing the strut to buckle. take f. s. = 2 against bucklin

Consider an insulating crystal, made up of layers of atoms. what form would you expect the temperature dependence of the phonon heat capacity to approach at extremely low temperatures if the interlayer coupling is i)very strong (rigid coupling), and ii) very weak. explain.

Light from two different sources are incident upon the same side of a polarizing filter. light from one source is polarized with total intensity ip, while light from the other source is unpolarized with total intensity iu. as you rotate the polarizing filter through 360 degrees, the intensity of the transmitted light on the other side varies by a factor of 9. what is the relative intensity of the initial polarized source to the unpolarized source, or ip/iu?
