A map of earthquakes and volcanoes on Earth shows that they do not occur in evenly distributed areas, but they also do not occur randomly over Earth's surface. Describe what GPS measurements show about the distribution of locations where earthquakes and volcanoes occur.

Asmall blob of putty of mass m falls from the ceiling and lands on the outer rim of a turntable of radius r and moment of inertia i0 that is rotating freely with angular speed ω0 about its vertical fixed-symmetry axis. (use any variable or symbol stated above as necessary.)

An alligator swims to the left with a constant velocity of 5 \,\dfrac{\text{m}}{\text s}5 s m ? 5, space, start fraction, m, divided by, s, end fraction. when the alligator sees a bird straight ahead, the alligator speeds up with a constant acceleration of 3 \,\dfrac{\text {m}}{\text s^2}3 s 2 m ? 3, space, start fraction, m, divided by, s, start superscript, 2, end superscript, end fraction leftward until it reaches a final velocity of 35 \,\dfrac{\text {m}}{\text s}35 s m ? 35, space, start fraction, m, divided by, s, end fraction leftward. how many seconds does it take the alligator to speed up from 5 \,\dfrac{\text {m}}{\text s}5 s m ? 5, space, start fraction, m, divided by, s, end fraction to 35 \,\dfrac{\text {m}}{\text s}35 s m ? 35, space, start fraction, m, divided by, s, end fraction?

An open cart is moving along a straight frictionless horizontal track. when rain starts falling vertically into the cart, what happens to the speed of the cart?
