- You are working at NASA, in a division that is studying the possibility of rotating small spacecraft using radiation pressure from the Sun. You have built a scale model of a spacecraft as shown in Figure P33.47. The central body is a spherical shell with mass m = 0.500 kg and radius R = 15.0 cm. The thin rod extending from each side of the sphere is of mass mr = 50.0 g and of total length = 1.00 m. At each end of the rod arc circular plates of mass mp = 10.0 g and radius rp = 2.00 cm, with the center of each plate located at the end of the rod. One plate is perfectly reflecting and the other is perfectly absorbing. The initial configuration of this model is that it is at rest, mounted on a vertical axle with very low friction. To begin the simulation, you expose the model to sunlight of intensity Is = 1 000 W/m2, directed perpendicularly to the plates, for a time interval of t = 2.0 min. The sunlight is then removed from the model. Determine the angular velocity with which the model now rotates about the axle.

- A parabolic reflector focuses electromagnetic waves into a beam as shown in the figure. The electromagnetic radiation is pulsed, with a pulse frequency of 19.0 GHz, and the duration of each pulse is t = 1.00 ns. The face of the reflector has a radius of 3.00 cm, and the average power during each pulse is 29.0 kW. (Due to the nature of this problem, do not use rounded intermediate values in your calculations—including answers submitted in WebAssign.)
