1) A 1000 kg rocket travels in outer space at 5000 m/s. The rocket then separates into two sections: a 250 kg section that travels at 8000 m/s, and a 750 kg section. All of this takes place in a straight line that you can consider as your x-axis. (Do not assume kinetic energy is constant throughout this process.)
A) What is the total momentum of the system before the separation?
B) What is the total kinetic energy of the system before the separation?
C) What is the final velocity of the more massive 750 kg rocket section?
D) What is change in the system’s kinetic energy in Joules?

| A very long solenoid with a circular cross section and radius r1= 1.40 cm with ns= 300 turns/cm lies inside a short coil of radius r2= 4.40 cm and Nc= 30 turns. |
If the current in the solenoid is ramped at a constant rate from zero to Is= 2.10 A over a time interval of 75.0 ms, what is the magnitude of the emf in the outer coil while the current in the solenoid is changing?
What is the mutual inductance between the solenoid and the short coil?
Now reverse the situation. If the current in the short coil is ramped up steadily from zero to Ic= 2.80 A over a time interval of 11.0 ms, what is the magnitude of the emf in the solenoid while the current in the coil is changing?

You are working with a team designing capacitors for specialized purposes. One client needs a capacitor shaped like a sphere that can store the most energy for its size. You are to begin the design process by performing calculations for a simple spherical capacitor consisting of two thin concentric spherical shells separated by a dielectric. You decide to calculate the maximum energy that can be stored in terms of the radius of the outer shell and the maximum electric field that the dielectric can withstand before breaking down.
After you have derived a symbolic answer, get an idea of how much energy this is by finding a numerical answer for a capacitor with an outer shell that has a radius of 5 cm (about the size of a softball), filled with a dielectric with a breakdown voltage of 150 x 106 V/m and a dielectric constant of 3.
(a) Give a purely symbolic answer to the problem in terms of (only) the quantities given in the problem and known constants. Be sure to define each of the symbols you use.
(b) Give a numerical answer to the problem.
