Problem 3CQ Six members of a synchronized swim team wear earplugs to protect themselves against water pressure at depths, but they can still hear the music and perform the combinations in the water perfectly. One day, they were asked to leave the pool so the dive team could practice a few dives, an

If An artist friend of yours needs help hanging a 500 lb sculpture from the ceiling. For artistic reasons, she wants to use just two ropes. One will be \(30^{\circ}\)from vertical, the other \(60^{\circ}\). She needs you to determine the smallest diameter rope that can safely support this expensive p

A narrow, U-shaped glass tube with open ends is filled with \(25.0 \mathrm{~cm}\) of oil (of specific gravity 0.80) and \(25.0 \mathrm{~cm}\) of water on opposite sides, with a barrier separating the liquids (Fig. P12.58). (a) Assume that the two liquids do not mix, and find the final heights of the

Consider a grey squirrel falling out of a tree to the ground. (a) If we ignore air resistance in this case (only for the sake of this problem), determine a squirrel's velocity just before hitting the ground, assuming it fell from a height of 3.0 m. (b) If the squirrel stops in a distance of 2.0 cm th
