Problem 23PE Problem (a) A light-rail commuter train accelerates at a rate of 1.35 m/s2 . How long does it take to reach its top speed of 80.0 km/h, starting from rest? (b) The same train ordinarily decelerates at a rate of 1.65 m/s2 . How long does it take to come to

An Introduction to Thermal Physics 1
Problem 66P In analogy with the thermal conductivity, derive an approximate formula for the viscosity of an ideal gas in terms of its density, mean free path, and average thermal speed. Show explicitly that the viscosity Is Independent of pressure and proportional to the square root of the temperatur

Problem 10P Why is a quantitative observation more useful than a non- quantitative one? Which of the following are quantitative? (a) The Sun rises in the east, (b) A person weighs one-sixth as much on the Moon as on Earth, (c) Ice floats on water, (d) A hand pump cannot draw water from a well more th

In Chapter 4 (at the end of Section 4.7) I claimed that, for a system with one degree of freedom, positions of stable equilibrium "normally" correspond to minima of the potential energy U (q). Using Lagrangian mechanics, you can now prove this claim. (a) Consider a one-degree system of N particles wi
