Aliens visiting Earth are fascinated by baseball. They are so advanced that they have learned how to vary U to make sure that a pitcher cannot throw a strike with any confi dence. Assume the width of the strike zone is 0.38 m, the speed of the baseball is 35 m/s, the mass of the baseball is 145 g, and the ball travels a distance of 18 m. What value of h is required?
Neutron stars are what are thought to cause pulsars. A pulsar is an astronomical radio sourcethat emits pulses of radiation, as seen from earth. The regularity of the pulses initially causedthe discoverers Jocelyn Bell Burnell and Antony Hewish to speculate that the signals were fromanother civilization. The pulses were so regularly spaced that it was thought that pulsars couldbe used as a time standard. However, it was soon seen that the rate of pulse emission slows, butthen abruptly increases in events known as glitches. The current model (highly simplified) for a pulsar is a neutron star, one in which the electronshave been pushed down into the nucleuses by extreme gravitational forces to combine with theprotons to form neutrons. Material falling onto the surface of the neutron star gets superheatedand shoots off in the form of a jet. If the jet doesn’t coincide with the rotational axis of the star,the jet will precess around the axis. If the earth happens to lie on the cone of…

High-speed flash photography was pioneered by Doc Edgerton in the 1930s, while he was a professor of electrical engineering at MIT. You might have seen examples of his work in the amazing shots of hummingbirds in motion, a drop of milk splattering on a table, or a bullet penetrating an apple . To stop the motion and capture these pictures, one needs a high-intensity, very short pulsed flash, as mentioned earlier in this module. Suppose one wished to capture the picture of a bullet (moving at 5.0×102 m/s ) that was passing through an apple. The duration of the flash is related to the RC time constant, τ . What size capacitor would one need in the RC circuit to succeed, if the resistance of the flash tube was 10.0 Ω ? Assume the apple is a sphere with a diameter of 8.0×10–2 m.
