After the Sun exhausts its nuclear fuel, its ultimate fate may be to collapse to a white dwarf state. In this state, it would have approximately the same mass as it has now, but its radius would be equal to the radius of the Earth. (a) Calculate the average density of the white dwarf.

A space station has a large ring-like component that rotates to simulate gravity for the crew. This ring has a mass M = 2.1×10^5 kg

and a radius of R= 86.0 m and can be modeled as a thin hoop. Before spinning up the ring section, crew members Dave and Frank

dock their ships, each with mass m= 3.5×10^4 kg on two docking ports located on opposite sides of the center of the ring. The docking

ports are located r = 31.0 m from the center of the ring. When the station’s computer begins to spin up the ring it has to spin both the

ring and the ships. The ships can be treated as point particles. Two identical thrusters on the edge of the ring are used to spin up the

ring with a constant angular acceleration. The ring-ship system takes 3 hours to reach the angular speed at which it simulates Earth’s

gravity for the crew on the edge of the ring. What constant force must each of the two thrusters apply to reach this rotational speed?

In a neutron scattering experiment, a neutron scatters off the stationary nucleus of an atom with an atomic mass of 61 amu in a 1 dimensional, elastic collision. After the collision, what percentage of the neutron's kinetic energy was transferred to the atom? In a second neutron absorbtion experiment, a neutron is absorbed into the nucleus of an atom with an atomic mass of 62 amu. After the collision, what percentage of the neutron's kinetic energy was remains?

Beryllium-8 is an unstable isotope and decays into two α particles, which are helium nuclei with mass 6.68×10−27kg. This decay process releases 1.5×10−14J of energy. For this problem, let's assume that the mass of the Beryllium-8 nucleus is just twice the mass of an α particle and that all the energy released in the decay becomes kinetic energy of the α particles.

a) If a Beryllium-8 nucleus is at rest when it decays, what is the speed of the  α particles after they are released?

b) If the Beryllium-8 nucleus is moving in the positive x-direction with a speed of 1.0×106 m/s when it decays, what is the speed of the slower-moving α particle after it is released? Assume that the α particles move entirely in the x-direction.

c) If the Beryllium-8 nucleus is moving in the positive x-direction with a speed of 1.0×106 m/s when it decays, what is the speed of the faster-moving α particle after it is released?  Assume that the α particles move entirely in the x-direction.

I have to do an experiment/ demonstration for my PHY251 class (Calculus based physics). I am only allowed to do it on one of the following topics: Vectors, Accelerated motion, Centripetal force, Free fall, projectile motion, Inertia, Equilibrium, Friction, Orbits, Tides. Does anyone have any ideas for a cool demonstration? Please provide instructions for the demonstration/experiment. Thank you in advance.

M, a solid cylinder (M=1.71 kg, R=0.133 m) pivots on a thin, fixed, frictionless bearing. A string wrapped around the cylinder pulls downward with a force F which equals the weight of a 0.690 kg mass, i.e., F = 6.769 N. Calculate the angular acceleration of the cylinder.

5.95×10¹ rad/s^2

If instead of the force F an actual mass m = 0.690 kg is hung from the string, find the angular acceleration of the cylinder.

How far does m travel downward between 0.730 s and 0.930 s after the motion begins?

The cylinder is changed to one with the same mass and radius, but a different moment of inertia. Starting from rest, the mass now moves a distance 0.379 m in a time of 0.470 s. Find I_cm of the new cylinder.

Compare (take the ratio) the rate of heat conduction through a 20.0-cm-thick wall that has an area of 10.0 m2 and a thermal conductivity twice that of glass wool with the rate of heat conduction through a 0.750-cm-thick window that has an area of 2.00 m2, assuming the same temperature difference across each. Show a few steps. Qualitatively, explain how you can reduce heat conduction through a window in winter.

A white billiard ball with mass m_w = 1.33 kg is moving directly to the right with a speed of v = 2.96 m/s and collides elastically with a black billiard ball with the same mass m_b = 1.33 kg that is initially at rest. The two collide elastically and the white ball ends up moving at an angle above the horizontal of ?_w = 29
