Roughly how many heartbeats are there in a lifetime?
In SI units, speeds are measured in meters per second (m/s). But, depending on where you live, you’re probably mole comfortable of thinking of speeds in terms of either kilometers per hour (km/h) or miles per hour (mi/h). In this problem, you will see that 1 m/s is roughly 4 km/h or 2 mi/h, which is handy to use when developing your physical Intuition. More precisely, show that (a) 1.0m/s=3.6km/h and 1.0m/s=2.2mi/h .
A surveyor measures the distance across a straight river by the following method: starting directly across from a tree on the opposite bank, he walks x = 1.00 102 m along the riverbank to establish a baseline. Then he sights across to the tree. The angle from his baseline lo the tree is = 35.0 (Fig. P1.53). How wide is the river? Figure P1.53

Roughly how many times longer than the mean life of an extremely unstable atomic nucleus is the lifetime of a human?
The height h in feet of an object that is dropped from a height of a feet is given by the formula h= s -16t2 , where t is the time the object has been falling. A 5-foot-tall woman on a sidewalk looks directly overhead and sees a windows washer drop a bottle from 5 stories up. How long does she have to get out of the way? Round to the nearest tenth. A story is 12 feet.
The formula d =1.35· h, models the distance in miles from the horizon where h is the distance in feet from a person's eyes to the water. If you are standing in a boat and the distance from the water to your eyes is 8 ft, what is your distance from the horizon to the nearest hunderedth of a mile?
The height h, in feet, of a golf ball t seconds after it has been hit is given by the equation h = −16t2 + 76t. How many seconds after the ball is hit will the height of the ball be 48 feet? Round answers to nearest hundredth. (Enter your answers as a comma-separated list. If the solution is not a real number, enter NOT REAL.)
Prove 1.) Assume that the population of a certain city increases at a rate proportional to the number of inhabitants that is presently living. If the population doubles in 2 years, and after 3 yes is 20,000, now what is the estimated initial residents living in city? Answer : 7062 2.) Compute its maximum speed in km/h, of a vehicle whose velocity v (in m/s) is a function of time (in secs) acc to the eq v = 4.5 + 18t - 4.5 t2 Ans: 22.5

Assume your hair grows at a rate of 1/44th of an inch per day. How fast is that in nm/s (nanometers per second)? Given that a typical atom is on the order of 1 x 10^(-10) m in diameter (see Table 1.3 on page 18 of the textbook), at approximately what rate does the protein synthesis that assembles your hair strands deposit atoms in units of atoms per second? I need the second question to be rounded to 1 significant digit.
