Problem 2: A student pushes a baseball of m = 0.18 kg down onto the top of a vertical spring that has its lower end fixed to a table, compressing the spring a distance of d = 0.14 meters from its equilibrium length. The spring constant of the spring is k = 740 N/m. Let the gravitational potential energy be zero at the position of the baseball in the compressed spring. Randomized Variables m = 0.18 kg k = 740 N/m d = 0.14 m

Albert Einstein is pondering how to write his (soonto-be-famous) equation. He knows that energy E is a function of mass m and the speed of light c, but he doesn't know the functional relationship (E = m2c? E = mc4?). Pretend that Albert knows nothing about dimensional analysis, but since you are taking a fluid mechanics class, you help Albert come up with his equation. Use the step-by-step method of repeating variables to generate a dimensionless relationship between these parameters, showing all of your work. Compare this to Einstein's famous equation—does dimensional analysis give you the correct form of the equation?
2) You are hiking along a trail in a wide, dry canyon where the outdoor temperature is T = 32° C. To determine how far you are away from the canyon wall you yell “Hello” and hear the echo t = 3.5 s later. Randomized Variables T = 32° C t = 3.5 s a) Calculate the speed of sound in the valley in meters per second, assuming the speed at 0° C is 330 m/s. b) How far are you from the canyon wall, in meters? c) If you stood at the same point on a cold morning where the temperature was T2 = -3.5 degrees C, how long would it have taken for you to hear the echo, in seconds?

a Cepheid variable star is a star whose brightness alternately increases and decreases. For a certain star, the interval between times of maximum brightness is 6.5 days. The average brightness of this star is 3.0 and its brightness changes by ±0.35.
