Two astronauts are at rest in outer space, one 16.3 m from the Space Shuttle and the other 32.6 m from the Shuttle. Using a 103.0-W laser, the astronaut located 32.6 m away from the Shuttle decides to propel the other astronaut toward the Space Shuttle. He focuses the laser on a piece of totally reflecting fabric on her space suit. If her total mass with equipment is 131.0 kg, how long will it take her to reach the Space Shuttle

Aspring with a mass of 2 kg has a damping constant 14 kg/s. a force of 3.6 n is required to keep the spring stretched 0.3 m beyond its natural length. the spring is stretched 0.6 m beyond its natural length and then released. find the position of the mass at any time t. (assume that movement to the right is the positive x-direction and the spring is attached to a wall at the left end.)

The motor m applies a time-varying force of f (200 t) n, where t is in seconds. box b with mass 200 kg starts from rest, and the coefficients of kinetic and static friction are 0.2 and us 0.3 the acceleration due to gravity is g 9.8 m/s2 b 300 a) find the time ' when the box starts to move. b) calculate the speed of the crate at 3 s c) calculate the power delivered by the motor at t 3 s

Alinearly polarized electromagnetic wave has an average intensity of 196 w/m^2. this wave is directed towards two ideal polarizers (in real polarizers, transmission is also effected by reflection and absorption). polarizer a is oriented with its transmission axis at an angle of θ_1=20.8∘ with the incident electric field. polarizer b has its axis at an angle of θ_2=63.0∘ with the incident electric field. what is the average intensity of the wave after it passes through polarizer a? what is the average intensity of the wave after it passes through polarizer b? suppose that the two polarizers a and b are interchanged. what would the average intensity be after passing through both polarizers?
