a) Find the mass of the hanging weight, mp, required to balance the egg as it rotates. b) Find the centripetal force, Fc, on the egg. c) Find the angular velocity, w, of the egg. d) Find the tangential velocity, vt, of the egg. Assume the collector won't pay and I decide to destroy the egg by cutting the cable at the point marked "cable cutter" shown in diagram (b). e) Show on diagram (b) the path the egg takes when the cable is cut. f) Neglecting air resistance, show that energy is conserved once the egg is in free fall. You are a police inspector in the Art Theft Department. You find my arrangement for ransoming the egg and realize that if the apparatus is tampered with (the electricity is cut, for instance) the cable cutter engages and cuts the cable. Because you took PHYS 201N, you can calculate where the egg will land if the cable is cut. You also realize that by placing a piece of foam at the egg's landing spot you can cushion the impact enough to save the egg. Fortunately, you have a piece of memory foam in your car. g) Where do you need to place the foam in order to cushion the egg's landing? Calculate the distance the egg travels and mark the landing spot on diagram (b).

As of August 27, 2020, the Philippines, through the Department of Finance has already borrowed $ 8.83 billion to fight against the health and socioeconomic crises inflicted by the COVD19 pandemic. (a) If payments were made at the rate of $1000 per second, how many many years would it take to pay off the debt, assuming no interest was charged? A one-dollar bill is about 15.5 cm long. If $8.83 billion one-dollar were laid end to end around the Earth's equator, how many times would they encircle the planet? Take the radium of the Earth at the equator to be 6378 km.

My physics class has turned to online due to the COVID-19 and I am having trouble with some of the word problems my teacher gave me to work on. She presented me with: I am contemplating a career change. If I had 500g of stolen gold jewelry, how much energy would I have to add to it to melt it (so that it was not longer recognizable)? Pretend that it is pure gold. Would you be able to show me how to accomplish this problem so I can see the steps? Thank you for your time. John Payton
