0 Our intuition is that if we combine two beams of light into a single beam, traveling in the same direction, the intensities should add. But it is not so obvious how this can be, since the fields should add linearly, and the Poynting vector is proportional to the square of the fields. Suppose we superimpose two plane waves that are traveling in the same direction, but with random polarizations. Show that, on the average, the intensities do add

The astronauts on the space shuttle flights experienced an acceleration of 29 m/s2 (about 3 "g's") during lift-off. what upward force must the astronaut's seat apply to the astronaut in order to cause this acceleration? assume the astronaut's mass is 70 kg, and compute this force when the acceleration is near the earth's surface so their weight equals latex: mg m g .
