20. Sterling Archer, despite failing repeatedly at pole-vaulting, is determined to master the skill. He is holding a vaulting pole parallel to the ground. The pole is 5 m long. Archer grips the pole with his right hand 10 cm from the top end of the pole and with his left hand 1 m from the top end of the pole. Although the pole is quite light (its mass is only 2.5 kg), the forces that Archer must exert on the pole to maintain it in this position are quite large. How large are they? (Assume that Archer exerts only vertical—up or down—forces on the horizontal pole and that the center of gravity of the pole is located at the center of its length.)

The astronauts on the space shuttle flights experienced an acceleration of 29 m/s2 (about 3 "g's") during lift-off. what upward force must the astronaut's seat apply to the astronaut in order to cause this acceleration? assume the astronaut's mass is 70 kg, and compute this force when the acceleration is near the earth's surface so their weight equals latex: mg m g .

Certain bacteria (such as aquaspirillum magnetotacticum) tend to swim toward the earth’s geographic north pole because they contain tiny particles, called magnetosomes, that are sensitive to a magnetic field. if a transmission line carrying 100 a is laid underwater, at what range of distances would the magnetic field from this line be great enough to interfere with the migration of these bacteria? (assume that a field less than 5% of the earth’s field would have little effect on the bacteria. take the earth’s field to be 5.0 * 10-5 t, and ignore the effects of the seawater.)
