Large quantities of dust should have been left behind after the creation of the solar system. Larger dust particles, comparable in size to soot and sand grains, are common. They create shooting stars when they collide with the earth's atmosphere. But very small dust particles are conspicuously absent. Astronomers believe that the very small dust particles have been blown out of the solar system by the sun. By comparing the forces on dust particles, determine the diameter of the smallest dust particles that can remain in the solar system over long periods of time. Assume that the dust particles are spherical, black, and have a density of . The sun emits electromagnetic radiation with power .
A capacitor is discharged, starting at . The displacement current through the plates is . What was the capacitor’s initial voltage ?
Unpolarized light of intensity is incident on three polarizing filters. The axis of the first is vertical, that of the second is from vertical, and that of the third is horizontal. What light intensity emerges from the third filter
Unpolarized light of intensity is incident on a stack of polarizing filters, each with its axis rotated with respect to the previous filter. What light intensity emerges from the last filter?
An astronaut has gone outside his space capsule to do some repair work. Unfortunately, he forgot to lock his safety tether in place, and he has drifted away from the capsule. Fortunately, he has a portable laser with fresh batteries that will operate it for . His only chance is to accelerate himself toward the space capsule by firing the laser in the opposite direction. He has a role="math" localid="1649937737036" supply of oxygen. How long will it take him to reach safety?
