A deli owner creates a lunch special display board by taking a uniform board which has a weight of 217 n, cutting it in half, hinging the halves together with a frictionless hinge, and setting it up as an inverted "v".

In the Niagara Falls hydroelectric generating plant, the energy of falling water is converted into electricity. The height of the falls is about 48 meters.

A 12.0 g bullet was fired horizontally into a 1 kg block of wood. The bullet initially had a speed of 250 m/s. The block of wood was hanging from a 2 m long piece of (massless) string.

Describe the core-mantle-crust structures of the terrestrial worlds. What is differentiation? What do we mean by the lithosphere? How does lithospheric thickness vary among the five terrestrial worlds?

A 20kg box is dropped 13m. how much work is done

Suppose a person whose mass is m is being held up against the wall with a constant tangential velocity v greater than the minimum necessary. Find the magnitude of the frictional force between the person and the wall

A ball is being rolled by a normal push of 1000N. it is opposed by friction which has a force of 0.3kN and air resistance which has a force of 23N. Calculate the resultant force.

Consider a Young's two-slit experiment in which the wavelength of light is 37% smaller than the distance between the slits.

Which of the following situations would produce an average velocity of zero? A) a round-trip to school and back B) a horse galloping in a field C) the criss-crossing path of a flying bug D) a trip, first to the moon, then onto Mars
