Starting from rest, you apply a constant, horizontal force of magnitude F to an object of mass M, causing the object to move distance D. You do work W on the object. If you repeated the scenario but with an object of mass 2M, how much work would you do on the object?

The answer choices are W/4, W/2, W, 2W, and 4W.

Scientists use laser range-finding to measure the distance to the moon with great accuracy. a brief laser pulse is fired at the moon, then the time interval is measured until the "echo" is seen by a telescope. a laser beam spreads out as it travels because it diffracts through a circular exit as it leaves the laser. in order for the reflected light to be bright enough to detect, the laser spot on the moon must be no more than 1.0 km in diameter. staying within this diameter is accomplished by using a special large-diameter laser. part a if λ = 540nm , what is the minimum diameter of the circular opening from which the laser beam emerges? the earth-moon distance is 384,000 km. express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

Ogle–2013–blg–0723 is an exoplanet that is similar to earth in size and proximity to its star. this exoplanet has mass m=4.18×1024kg and radius r=5.66×106m. an astronaut whose weight on earth is w=735n lands on the planet. a. calculate m, the mass of the astronaut. b. calculate gp? , the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of ogle–2013–blg–0723. c. calculate wp? , the weight of the astronaut on the surface of ogle–2013–blg–0723. d. calculate v, the minimum velocity required to put an object into orbit above ogle–2013–blg–0723. e. calculate t, the time required to complete an orbit around ogle–2013–blg–0723.

One day, after pulling down your window shade, you notice that sunlight is passing through a pinhole in the shade and making a small patch of light on the far wall. you see that the patch of light seems to be a circular diffraction pattern. it appears that the central maximum is about 1 cm across and you estimate that the distance from the window shade to the wall is about 3 m. what is (a) the average wavelength of sunlight? (b) the diameter of the pinhole?
