Andre the giant and thumbelina are standing in the middle of an ice-skating rink facing each other. andre the giant pushes thumbelina and she goes sliding, but andre also slides a bit backwards. why did this happen?

What is the coefficient of kinetic friction μk between the block and the tabletop?

The magnitude of the amount of energy released by burning a fuel source, measured in energy per unit mass, is called its fuel value. note that the fuel value is the negative of the isobaric specific heat of combustion for the fuel. if all the energy obtained from burning 1.23 pounds of butane with a fuel value of 10.85 kcal/g is used to heat 128.0 kg of water at an initial temperature of 18.3 °c, what is the final temperature? note that 1 lb = 453.6 g.

Aparticle initially located at the origin has an acceleration of = 2.00ĵ m/s2 and an initial velocity of i = 8.00î m/s. find (a) the vector position of the particle at any time t (where t is measured in seconds), (b) the velocity of the particle at any time t, (c) the position of the particle at t = 7.00 s, and (d) the speed of the particle at t = 7.00
