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 36P In the course of pumping up a bicycle tire, a liter of air at atmospheric pressure is compressed adiabatically to a pressure of 7 atm. (Air is mostly diatomic nitrogen and oxygen.) (a) What is the final volume of this air after compression? ________________ (b) How much work is done in

45. (Ill) A Ferrari with a mass of 1400 kg approaches a freeway underpass that is 10 m across. At what speed must the car be moving, in order for it to have a wavelength such that it might somehow diffract" after passing through this single slit"? How do these conditions compare to normal freeway spe

(III) The two masses shown in Fig. 452 are each initially 1.80 m above the ground, and the massless frictionless pulley is 4.8 m above the ground. What maximum height does the lighter object reach after the system is released? [Hint: First determine the acceleration of the lighter mass and then its v

Been to the movies? An opinion poll calls 2000 ran domly chosen residential telephone numbers, then asks to speak with an adult member of the household. The interviewer asks, How many movies have you watched in a movie theater in the past 12 months? In all, 1131 people responded. The researchers used
