Arriving at a sandy ocean beach early in the day, you set up a blanket and chairs just feet from the water. After a swim in the surf, you decide to go off the beach to get a snack. When you return to the beach later in the day, your chairs and blanket are soaked from the ocean. What force has moved the ocean water level up and back down the beach?

What should the power status of a circuit be when measuring resistance with an ohmmeter?

Consider an ordinary, helium-filled party balloon with a volume of 2.2 ft3. the lifting force on the balloon due to the outside air is the net resultant of the pressure distribution exerted on the exterior surface of the balloon. using this fact, we can derive archimedes’ principle, namely that the upward force on the balloon is equal to the weight of the air displaced by the balloon. assuming that the balloon is at sea level, where the air density is 0.002377 slug/ft3, calculate the maximum weight that can be lifted by the balloon. note: the molecular weight of air is 28.8 and that of helium is 4.

Ametal ball with a mass of 0.028 kg is dropped from rest at a height of 1.0 meters above the ground. assuming the energy in the ball is conserved, how much kinetic energy will the ball have when it is 0.5 meters above the ground?
