People hoping to travel to other worlds are faced with huge challenges. One of the biggest is the time required for a journey. The nearest star is 4.1×1016m 4.1 × 10 16 m away. Suppose you had a spacecraft that could accelerate at 1.5 g g for two thirds of a year, then continue at a constant speed. (This is far beyond what can be achieved with any known technology.)How long would it take you to reach the nearest star to earth?

Aperson stands on a platform, initially at rest, that can rotate freely without friction. the moment of inertia of the person plus the platform is ip. the person holds a spinning bicycle wheel with its axis horizontal. the wheel has moment of inertia iw and angular velocity ωw. take the ωw direction counterclockwise when viewed from above. part a what will be the angular velocity ωp of the platform if the person moves the axis of the wheel so that it points vertically upward?

An object's buoyant force and weight mean the same thing. a. trueb. false

Since the energy was not raising the temperature of the water during these segments, what was the energy used to do instead? your answer must include an explanation of what is happening to the molecules.
