Astronauts use a centrifuge to simulate the acceleration of a rocket launch. the centrifuge takes 40.0 s to speed up from rest to its top speed of 1 rotation every 1.20 s . the astronaut is strapped into a seat 4.10 m from the axis.

Two large, flat, horizontally oriented plates are parallel to each other, a distance d apart. half way betwween the two plates the electric field has magnitude e. if the separation of the plates is reduced to d/2 what is the magnitude of the electric field half way between the plates?

To do work, this truck uses energy stored in chemical fuel and an electrical battery. how much total energy does this truck put out?

Your starship, the aimless wanderer, lands on the mysterious planet mongo. as chief scientist-engineer, you make the following measurements: a 2.50-kg stone thrown upward from the ground at 14.0 m/s returns to the ground in 5.70 s ; the circumference of mongo at the equator is 2.20×10^5 km ; and there is no appreciable atmosphere on mongo. (a) the starship commander, captain confusion, asks for the following information: what is the mass of mongo? (b) if the aimless wanderer goes into a circular orbit 2.20×10^4 km above the surface of mongo, how many hours will it take the ship to complete one orbit? (c) an unmanned spacecraft is in a circular orbit around the moon, observing the lunar surface from an altitude of 44.0 km . to the dismay of scientists on earth, an electrical fault causes an on-board thruster to fire, decreasing the speed of the spacecraft by 23.0 m/s . if nothing is done to correct its orbit, with what speed (in km/h) will the spacecraft crash into the lunar surface?
