Scientists in a test lab are testing the hardness of a surface before constructing a building. Calculations indicate that the entire structure would sink by a certain amount for every additional floor that is added. If the maximum permissible limit for depression of the structure is 20 centimeters, how many floors can be safely added to the building? A.

What if? physicists often measure the momentum of subatomic particles moving near the speed of light in units of mev/c, where c is the speed of light, and 1 mev = 1.6 ✕ 10−13 kg · m2/s2. based on this, what are the units of momentum for a high-speed subatomic particle in terms of fundamental si units?

A1,700kg car is being used to give a 1,400kg car a push start by exerting a force of 140n the impulse on the smaller car during the 30.0s of contact is +670kg*m/s. what is the impulse of the smaller car on the larger car? -814 kg*m/s 0kg *m/s -670kg*m/s -550kg*m/s

The ratio of lift to drag l/d for a wing or airfoil is an important aerodynamic parameter, indeed, it is a direct measure of the aerodynamic efficiency of the wing. if a wing is pitched through a range of angle of attack, l/d first increases, then goes through a maximum, and then decreases. consider an infinite wing with an naca 2412 airfoil. estimate the maximum value of l/d. assume that the reynolds number is 9x10^6.
