A 20 kg box has 1000 joules of potential energy on a shelf. How high is the shelf?

Explain using examples, what is simple harmonic motion and why it is an important area of study in physics.

You throw a baseball directly upward at time t = 0 at an initial speed of 12.3 m/s. what is the maximum height the ball reaches above where it leaves your hand? at what times does the ball pass through half the maximum height? ignore air resistance and take g = 9.80 m/s2.

6–55 refrigerant-134a enters the condenser of a residential heat pump at 800 kpa and 358c at a rate of 0.018 kg/s and leaves at 800 kpa as a saturated liquid. if the compressor consumes 1.2 kw of power, determine (a) the cop of the heat pump and (b) the rate of heat absorption from the outside air.
