You lower a 2.50 kg textbook (remember when textbooks used to be made out of paper instead of being digital? ) from a height of 1.85 m to 1.50 m. what is its change in potential energy?

Aparticle moves according to a law of motion s = f(t), 0 ≤ t ≤ 12, where t is measured in seconds and s in feet. f(t) = cos(πt/6) (a) find the velocity at time t (in ft/s).

Suppose that two tanks, 1 and 2, each with a large opening at the top, contain different liquids. a small hole is made in the side of each tank at the same depth 1.57 m below the liquid surface, but the hole in tank 2 has 2.49 times the cross-sectional area of the hole in tank 1. (a) what is the ratio ρ1/ρ2 of the densities of the liquids if the mass flow rate is the same for the two holes? (b) what is the ratio rv1/rv2 of the volume flow rates from the two tanks? (c) at one instant, the liquid in tank 1 is 14.9 cm above the hole. if the tanks are to have equal volume flow rates, what height above the hole must the liquid in tank 2 be just then?

20. threshold braking in the vehicle's braking system occurs when a. the brake pedal is pushed, heel on floorboard, with full foot pressure. b. the brakes are exerting full braking power, without traction loss. c. the driver begins pushing down the brake pedal, with moderate slowdown. d. the brakes just begin to take hold with a gradual slowdown.
