What makes the lumbar vertebrae different from the cervical vertebrae and the thoracic vertebrae?

In physics the desire of an object to keep doing what it is doing is termed?

Acar of mass m goes around a banked curve of radius r with speed v. if the road is frictionless due to ice, the car can still negotiate the curve if the horizontal component of the normal force on the car from the road is equal in magnitude to 101) a) mv2/r b) mg/2. d) mg e) tan[v2/(eg)]

Awater slide of length l has a vertical drop of h. abby's mass is m. an average friction force of magnitude f opposes her motion. she starts down the slide at initial speed vi. use work-energy ideas to develop an expression for her speed at the bottom of the slide. then evaluate your result using unit analysis and limiting case analysis. express your answer in terms of the variables h, m, l, vi, f and appropriate constants. vf v f
