In order to catch a ball, a baseball player moves his or her hand backward in the direction of the ball's motion. doing this reduces the force of impact on the player's hand principally because

If two metal balls each have a charge of -10^-6 c and the repulsive force between them is 1 n, how far apart are they? (coulomb's constant is k = 9.0x 10^9 n-m^2/c^2? 9.5 m 9.0 mm 9.5 cm 0.9 m .

The ratio of lift to drag l/d for a wing or airfoil is an important aerodynamic parameter, indeed, it is a direct measure of the aerodynamic efficiency of the wing. if a wing is pitched through a range of angle of attack, l/d first increases, then goes through a maximum, and then decreases. consider an infinite wing with an naca 2412 airfoil. estimate the maximum value of l/d. assume that the reynolds number is 9x10^6.

1. jay fills a wagon with sand (about 20 kg) and pulls it with a rope 30 m along the beach. he holds the rope 25° above the horizontal. the rope exerts a 20-n tension force on the wagon. how much work does the rope do on the wagon?
