Within a certain type of star called a neutron star, the material at the center has a mass density of 1.0 x 1018 kg/m³. If a tiny
sphere of this material of radius 1.0 x 10-5 m were somehow transported to the surface of the earth, what would be the weight
of this sphere?

Global warming is a cause for concern because even small changes in the Earth’s temperature can have significant consequences. For example, if the Earth’s polar ice caps were to melt entirely, the resulting additional water in the oceans would flood many coastal areas. Model the polar ice as havingmass 2.30 × 1019 kg and forming two flat disks of radius 6.00 × 105 m. Assume the water spreads into an unbroken thin, spherical shell after it melts. Calculate the resulting change in the duration of one day both in seconds and as a percentage.

- A Geiger counter is a device used to detect radiation, and consists of a thin metal wire (anode) at the center of a metallic tube (cathode). As radiation enters the tube, electrons are knocked off from the gas inside the tube or from the metallic wall, and accelerate towards the wire at the center. Consider a Geiger counter with an evacuated tube (a vacuum existing between cathode and anode), where the inner anode has a radius 4 mm and the outer cathode has a radius of 82 mm. The anode has a linear charge density of +18 nC/m, while the cathode has a charge per unit length of -18 nC/m. Let the cathode potential be equal to zero (using it as voltage reference).

- In medicine, it is often important to monitor the blood flow in certain areas of the body. However, the movement of blood is difficult to monitor directly. Instead, some medical devices use the Hall effect, taking advantage of the fact that the blood flowing through a vein contains a considerable number of free ions. Model the vein in a patient's arm to be of rectangular cross section, as shown in the figure, with a width w=4.00 mm and height ℎ=3.35 mm. The entire section of the vein is immersed in a constant magnetic field of ?=0.0955 T, pointing horizontally and parallel to the width. A medical device constantly monitors the resulting Hall voltage. Suppose that medical precautions mandate that the speed of the blood flow for this particular component of the body should never drop below 21.40 cm/s.
