Figure 1.18 (Chapter 1) shows the Hoover Dam Bridge over the Colorado River at a height of 271 m. If a heavy object is dropped from the bridge, how much time passes before the object makes a splash?
Elisha Graves Otis invented the elevator brake in the mid-1800s, making it possible to build tall skyscrapers with fast elevators. Todays skyscrapers are a large fraction of a mile tall; for example. Taipei 101 in Taiwan has 101 stories and is 515 m (0.32 miles) tall. The top speed of the elevator in the Taipei 101 tower is roughly three times greater than the ascent rate of a commercial jet airplane. The position and time data in the table are based on such an elevator. a. Working in SI units, make a position-versus-time graph for the elevator. (You may wish to use a spreadsheet program.) b. Describe the motion of the elevator in words. c. Find the highest speed of the elevator. When is the elevator going at this speed? d. What sort of considerations would the engineers need to make to ensure the comfort of the passengers?

A landscape architect is planning an artificial waterfall in a city park. Water flowing at 1.70 m/s will leave the end of a horizontal channel at the top of a vertical wall h = 2.35 m high, and from there it will fall into a pool (Fig. P3.42). (a) Will the space behind the waterfall be wide enough for a pedestrian walkway? (b) To sell her plan to the city council, the architect wants to build a model to standard scale, which is one-twelfth actual size. How fast should the water flow in the channel in the model? Figure P3.42
In building a house, carpenters use nails from a large box. The box is suspended from a spring twice dining the day to measure the usage of nails. At the beginning of the day, the spring stretches 50 cm. At the end of the day, the spring stretches 30 cm. What fraction or percentages of the nails have been used?
The small archerfish (length 20 to 25 cm) lives in brackish waters of Southeast Asia from India to the Philippines. This aptly named creature captures its prey by shooting a stream of water drops at an insect, either flying or at rest. The bug falls into the water and the fish gobbles it up. The archerfish has high accuracy at distances of 1.2 m to 1.5 m, and it sometimes makes hits at distances up to 3.5 m. A groove in the roof of its mouth, along with a curled tongue, forms a tube that enables the fish to impart high velocity to the water in its mouth when it suddenly closes its gill flaps. Suppose the archerfish shoots at a target that is 2.00 m away, measured along a line at an angle of 30.0 above the horizontal. With what velocity must the water stream be launched if it is not to drop more than 3.00 cm vertically on its path to the target?
