Question 7: An astronaut is drifting away from the space shuttle at a velocity of 1.1 m/s.
Luckily he has his gun with him and he decides to fire his
gun's 30 g bullets as a means of returning to his ship. The mass of the astronaut
and his spacesuit is 123 kg, his gun has a mass of 12 kg and the bullets leave his
gun at 250 m/s.

b) What is the approximate minimum number of bullets that he will need to fire to begin drifting
back to the ship?

Unpolarized light of intensity i_0=750w/m^2 is incident upon two polarizers. after passing through both polarizers the intensity is i_2=280w/m^2. (a) what is the intensity of the light after it passes through the first polarizer in w/m^2? (b) write an equation for the angle between the polarizers in terms of the initial (i_0) and final (i_2) intensities. (c) find the angle between the polarizers in degrees.
