The 2-kg collar is attached to a spring that has an un-stretched length of 3.0 m. If the collar is drawn to point B and releases from rest, what is the speed when it arrives at point A. Note that k = 3.0 N/m and neglect friction.

Agymnast dismounts off the uneven bars in a tuck position with a radius of 0.3m (assume she is a solid sphere) and an angular velocity of 2rev/s. during the dismount she stretches out into the straight position, with a length of 1.5m, (assume she is a uniform rod through the center) for her landing. the gymnast has a mass of 50kg. what is her angular velocity in the straight position?

You have been consulted by the mobile phone company hookup about a new augmented reality product called “brows”. they want to develop an alternative to google glasses, which, you recall, is a proposed new product which plans to superimpose a whole range of wireless google services over the user’s ordinary vision of the world. these appear in little circles and ovals, and let you phone people, take photographs, navigate across cities and inside buildings, find shops and update your social media. brows would do this too, but not be limited to special google services. the user would wear a small cylinder-shaped device designed to fit on top of their existing eyewear (glasses or sunglasses). it would project a reversed image onto the inside of the lenses, the reflection of which would be in focus for the user. instead of voice control, the user would control the device by eye and neck movements, which the device would track. the device would connect via bluetooth to the user’s phone, which would supply most of the computing power and wireless connectivity. hookup also wants to know what existing services would be most in demand, and which would not work well with brows. using your knowledge of augmented reality, wearable technology and interface design, is the project feasible? if not, why not? if feasible, how could the product need to be modified for a better experience?

Two resistors r1 and r2 may be connected either in series or parallel across an ideal battery with emf ε. we desire the rate of energy dissipation of the parallel combination to be 8.75 times that of the series combination. if r1 = 105 ω, what are the (a) smaller and (b) larger of the two values of r2 that result in that dissipation rate?
