A rogue band of colonists on the moon declares war and prepares to use a catapult to launch large boulders at the earth. Assume that the boulders are launched from the point on the moon nearest the earth. For this problem you can ignore the rotation of the two bodies and the orbiting of the moon.
a. What is the minimum speed with which a boulder must be launched to reach the earth?
Hint: The minimum speed is not the escape speed. You need to analyze a three-body system.
b. Ignoring air resistance, what is the impact speed on earth of a boulder launched at this minimum speed?

In a stagnant pool of water, a crayfish may spend much of its time lying with one side of its carapace near the surface of the water. in this position, it will move the walking legs on that side in a rhythmic back-and-forth motion. explain the likely function of this behavior.

Search coils and credit cards. one practical way to measure magnetic field strength uses a small, closely wound coil called a search coil. the coil is initially held with its plane perpendicular to a magnetic field. the coil is then either quickly rotated a quarter-turn about a diameter or quickly pulled out of the field. (a) derive the equation relating the total charge q that flows through a search coil to the magnetic-field magnitude b. the search coil has n turns, each with area a, and the flux through the coil is decreased from its initial maximum value to zero in a time ∆t. the resistance of the coil is r, and the total charge is q = i∆t, where i is the average current induced by the change in flux. (b) in a credit card reader, the magnetic strip on the back of a credit card is rapidly “swiped” past a coil within the reader. explain, using the same ideas that underlie the operation of a search coil, how the reader can decode the information stored in the pattern of magnetization on the strip. (c) is it necessary that the credit card be “swiped” through the reader at exactly the right speed? why or why not?

Fill in the blanks with the numbers is a measure of the resistance to flow. a high liquid has a high resistance to flow and flows slowly. the ancients thought everything in the world was made of 4 we now know that there are 94 naturally occurring and scientists have created another 24 i am certain they will create even more. honey flows slowly because it has a high to flowing. a can be separated by physical means because it contains more than one pure substance and 2 pure substances are not chemically bonded to each other. a cannot be separated by physical means. all matter is made up of all elements are with the same number of protons. if it is just a single or many bonded together, if all of them have the same number of protons, it is an element. in a piece of pure iron metal, all the are joined together, that piece of iron metal is called elemental iron. a single of iron is called elemental iron. a mixture has differences from place to place. we might need a microscope to see them or they might be obvious to the unaided eye. there are surfaces separating it into different phases. a mixture is the same everywhere. it is uniform. there are no surfaces separating it into different phases. if different kinds of atoms (different elements) are bonded together by their electrons, it is called a there are physical means of to isolate the different pure substances in a mixture and there are chemical means of to isolate the different elements in a compound. 1. element 2. compound 3. mixture 4. heterogeneous 5. homogeneous 6. pure substance 7. atoms 8. separation 9. viscosity 10. resistance
