Ahuman centrifuge to test the effects of high acceleration on the human body, the national aeronautics and space administration (nasa) has constructed a large centrifuge at the manned spacecraft center in houston. in this device, astronauts are placed in a capsule that moves in a circular path with a radius of 15 m.
if the astronauts in this centrifuge experience a centripetal acceleration 9.0 times that of gravity, what is the linear speed of the capsule?

Comedians like to joke that the reason we havenâ€™t been visited by intelligent life from elsewhere in the universe is that aliens have been monitoring earthâ€™s broadcasts of intellectually embarrassing tv programs, like gilliganâ€™s island, fear factor, the jersey shore, and the jerry springer showand so consider us far too primitive to merit a visit. letâ€™s check the assertion that aliens could have been receiving them. tv programs are broadcast at a frequency of about 100mhz with about 100kw of total power in 30frames per second, which emanatesroughly uniformly in all directions. assume that interstellar space transmits these broadcasts without attenuation. no matter how smart they are, aliens would require at least one photon per frame to interpret our signals. findthe number of photons per unit time per unit area reaching a receiver on a possible planet in the nearest star system, which is about 4 light-years away (a light-year is the distance light travels in a year). if aliens aimed a receiver or detector directly at earth, how big (in diameter) would it have to be to receive a photon per frame

Light traveling in water, nwater = 1.33, strikes a plastic block at an angle of incidence of 51.4°; part of the beam is reflected and part is refracted. if the index of refraction of the plastic is 2.0, what is the angle made by the reflected and refracted beams?

Neurons are components of the nervous system of the body that transmit signals as electrical impulses travel along their length. these impulses propagate when charge suddenly rushes into and then out of a part of the neutron called an axon. measurements have shown that, during the inflow part of this cycle approximately 5.6x10^11 na per meter, each with a charge of e enter the axon. how many coulombs of charge enter a 1.10 cm length of axon during this process
