Aregional jet aircraft crashes on a rolling hill declining at 5o relative to the line of flight. it was determined the flight path angle was 17 degrees the time of the crash. analysis of the airspeed indicator showed the airspeed was 140 knots. initial impact occurred with the aircraft nose 3 degrees above the horizon. the impact scar was measured to be 1 foot at its deepest and 273 feet long. the fuselage is crushed 12 inches vertically and 60 inches horizontally.
method of solution:
1. sketch known quantities
2. convert known quantities to standard dimensional units
a) distances in feet
b) velocities in feet/second
3. determine magnitude of velocity component
a) parallel to impact surface
b) perpendicular to impact surface
4. determine stopping distance
a) parallel to impact surface
b) perpendicular to impact surface
5. determine acceleration components
a) select the crash pulse
b) parallel to impact surface
c) perpendicular to impact surface
6. determine resultant acceleration magnitude and direction, with respect to impact surface
7. determine direction of resultant acceleration with respect to aircraft axes
8. estimate survivability potential

While goofing off at the ice skating rink, a student takes off her shoes and places each of them on the ice. her friend, a hockey player, then shoots a hockey puck at each shoe. the first puck immediately comes to rest after it collides with the left shoe. the second puck rebounds after it collides with the right shoe. if each hockey puck has the same incoming speed, which shoe has greater speed after the collision? the right shoe. both shoes have the same speed. the left shoe.

Imagine that you have two balloons (or, better yet, actually inflate two balloons, if possible). create static electricity around one of the balloons by rubbing it against your hair or your sweater and then bring that balloon close to the other balloon, which has not been charged. try this with at least one other object—and for variety in the discussion, avoid using an object already described by your classmates. then, for your initial post to the discussion, answer the following questions: what happened with the two balloons?
