For this exercise we will be looking at the Milky Way's Rotation Curve. Using the interactive rotation curve above determine the velocity values for each of the R values given in the Rotation Curve Chart above. For each row in the Rotation Curve Chart record the vale for velocity and then calculate the total mass for R = 2kpc and R = 4kpc using the relationships beneath the rotation curve. Note that an example calculation for the R = 0.3 kpc row has been provided for you. Copy the values from the Rotation Curve Chart into the table below:
R (kpc) Velocity (km/s) Total Mass (billions of Msun)
0.3 259.6 4.5
2.0
4.0
After recording the values for these two rows click "Total Mass" in the Rotation Curve Chart and it will calculate the remaining Total Mass values for you.

Next a skier is pulled by a tow rope up a frictionless ski slope that makes an angle of 15 with the horizontal. the rope moves parallel to the slope with a constant speed of 0.69 m/s. the force of the rope does 800 3 of work on the skier as the skier moves a distance of 8.4 m up the incline. (a) if the rope moved with a constant speed of 2.2 m/s how much work would the force of the rope do on the skier as the skler moved a distance of 8.4 m up the incline? at what rate is the force of the rope doing work on the skier when the rope moves with a speed of (b) 0.69 m/s and (c) 2.2 m/s?

Amichelson interferometer operating at a 600 nm wavelength has a 3.02-cm-long glass cell in one arm. to begin, the air is pumped out of the cell and mirror m2 is adjusted to produce a bright spot at the center of the interference pattern. then a valve is opened and air is slowly admitted into the cell. the index of refraction of air at 1.00 atm pressure is 1.00028.how many bright-dark-bright fringe shifts are observed as the cell fills with air?
