Feeling adventerous, Jane wants to go bowling on the roof of her apartment building. She starts out on the roof of a 51m tall building, but the bowling pins are set up on the roof of the adjacent building, which is 15 m away horizontally, but only 35m tall. She rolls the bowling with an initial velocity of 1.2 m/s, but the ball then goes down a 1.0 m tall ramp to give it some extra speed, then the ball (with a mass of 6 kg and a radius of 10 cm) rolls without slipping to the edge of the building, and toward the second roof. The moment of inertia of a sphere is (2/5)mr^2. Does the ball reach the pins on the adjacent building? Or is some poor guy going to find that a bowling ball has fallen from the sky to crush his car? Explain your reasoning!

Sacks of flour are launched from a horizontal conveyor belt moving at a rate of 2m/s into binds for packing. If the surface of the conveyor belt is 1.4 m off the ground, what is the range of each flour sack? 1) Not enough information is given to find the range 2) ≈1.06 m 3) Undefined 4) ≈0.53 m
Sam, whose mass is 68 kg , straps on his skis and starts down a 68 m -high, 20∘ frictionless slope. A strong headwind exerts a horizontal force of 200 N on him as he skies. Use work and energy to find Sam's speed at the bottom.
How long should a rotor blade of a wind turbine be if it is designed to produce 10 kW and the prevailing wind speed is about 50 kph? Assume that air density is 1.20 kg/m3.
How much energy would it take to raise a can of soda (m = 350 grams) to average cruising altitude (35,000 ft)? Our textbook states that a gallon of gasoline contains 1.2×108 Joules of energy. Assuming 100% efficiency, how many gallons of gasoline would it take to raise the can of soda to 35,000 ft? A calorie is the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 Celsius degree (4.186 J). A nutritional Calorie is actually 1000 calories (1 Cal = 1 kcal). How many Calories of energy does it take to raise the can of soda to cruising altitude? Given that a can of Coke is about 140 Calories, how many cans of coke does it take to raise a can of coke to cruising altitude?
Read the question carefully and give me right solution according to the question. The wind turbine (60 meter diameter) is at sea level, but it is in a windier place. How much total power would it receive from the wind if it is blowing at 20 meters per second? Why can’t a wind turbine with 60 meter blades actually produce this much power in 20 m/s winds?
What power in KW is required to lift a 1500 kg mass a distance of 80 m in 14 sec? The correct answer is 84.09 KW
Three parallel plates are placed horizontally and are separated by two fluids at 18°C, with Plate A placed at the bottom and at rest, while Plate C is placed on top and moves at 3 m/s. Cyclohexane lies between Plate A and Plate B, spaced 3 cm apart, while water lies between Plates B and C spaced 3 cm apart. a. What is the relation of the rate of transfer of momentum between Plates A and B, with that between Plates B and C? b. Calculate the velocity of Plate B at steady state. c. Suppose that the plates are spaced equally 5-cm apart, what will be the velocity of Plate B and the shear stress exerted on Plate A to maintain Plate 3 at 3 m/s?
An object on a rope is lowered at a steadily decreasing speed. Why is the rope tension greater than the object's weight? Explain thoroughly (Using a diagram aswell to support your reasoning)
You bet your friend that he cannot completely submerge your beach ball, which has a diameter of 60 cm and negligible mass. He must balance on the beach ball, not jump on it. What is the smallest mass that your friend can have and be successful? Assume that the sea water density is 1024kg/m^3.
A 50 kg inclined plane, 4 m long and 30 degrees in angle, rests without friction on a table (there is oil between the inclined plane and the table). A 20 kg mass is at the top of the inclined plane and slides without friction on it. How much will the inclined plane move when the mass reaches the table? What will be the speed of the inclined plane and the speed of the mass when the latter is on the table? (we have conservation of mechanical energy (no friction) and conservation of momentum...)
1.2 Assuming that there are no heat effects and no frictional effects,find the kinetic energy and speed of a 3220lb body after it falls 778 ft from rest. Start with the steady flow equation, deleting energy terms which are irrelevant. draw a figure also, and explain each step by step solution.
A steel wire connects two trains at rest on the same track. The wire will snapif it is stretched by as much as 1 percent. The trains begin to accelerate in such away that their velocities, as measured in the ground frame, are always equal.Eventually, the wire snaps. Explain carefully why this happens. How fast are thetrains moving when the wire snaps?
