Explain why a seesaw is closest in arrangement to a first class lever.

If a clock aboard a space ship traveling at 0.900 c of the speed of light relative to earth chimes once at the beginning of the hour and again when it reads one hour later, how much time would an observer on earth say elapsed between the two chimes?

Your pendulum clock which advances 1.0 s for every complete oscillation of the pendulum is running perfectly on earth at a site where the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity is 9.80 m/s2. you send the clock to a location on the moon where the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity is 1.65 m/s2.

Alinearly polarized electromagnetic wave has an average intensity of 196 w/m^2. this wave is directed towards two ideal polarizers (in real polarizers, transmission is also effected by reflection and absorption). polarizer a is oriented with its transmission axis at an angle of θ_1=20.8∘ with the incident electric field. polarizer b has its axis at an angle of θ_2=63.0∘ with the incident electric field. what is the average intensity of the wave after it passes through polarizer a? what is the average intensity of the wave after it passes through polarizer b? suppose that the two polarizers a and b are interchanged. what would the average intensity be after passing through both polarizers?
