Suppose you are driving a car at 80 miles per hour. Again decelerating at 16 feet per second squared it will take you (..............) seconds to stop. During that time you will travel(............) feet. Assuming that it takes you 1 second to react to an emergency before you start braking, at the same initial speed, and the same constant deceleration, you will travel a total of (................) feet, before coming to a stop.

(Oceanography) The pressure, P, exerted on an underwater object can be determined by this formula: P=gh is the density of water, which is 1.94slug/ft3 . g is the acceleration caused by Earth’s gravity, which is 32.2ft/sec2. h is the object’s depth in the water in feet. a. Determine the units of P by calculating the units resulting from the right side of the formula. Check that your answer corresponds to the units for pressure listed in Table 1.1. b. Determine the pressure on a submarine operating at a depth of 2500 feet.

0.05 kg of steam at 5 bar is contained in a rigid vessel of volume 0.0076m3 . What is the temperature of the steam? If the vessel is cooled, at what temperature will the steam be just dry saturated?

a)A thief robbing a store finds 5 items; the items are worth 8,10,7,20 and 11 dollars and weights 2,3,2,7 and 7 pounds. He wants to take as valuable a load as possible, but he can carry at most 9 pounds in his knapsack. What is the maximum worth of items that he can take? b) What if the thief somehow managed to increase the capacity of his knapsack by 2 pounds? What will be the maximum worth of items that he can take then?
Suppose that a parachutist with linear drag (m=50 kg, c=12.5kg/s) jumps from an airplane flying at an altitude of a kilometer with a horizontal velocity of 220 m/s relative to the ground. a) Write a system of four differential equations for x,y,vx=dx/dt and vy=dy/dt. b) If theinitial horizontal position is defined as x=0, use Euler’s methods with t=0.4 s to compute the jumper’s position over the first 40 s. c) Develop plots of y versus t and y versus x. Use the plot to graphically estimate when and where the jumper would hit the ground if the chute failed to open.

standard science experiment is to drop a ball and see how high it bounces. Once the “bounciness” of the ball has been determined, the ratio gives a bounciness index. For example, if a ball dropped from a height of 10 feet bounces 6 feet high, the index is 0.6, and the total distance traveled by the ball is 16 feet after one bounce. If the ball were to continue bouncing, the distance after two bounces would be 10 ft + 6 ft +6 ft + 3.6 ft = 25.6 ft. Note that the distance traveled for each successive bounce is the distance to the floor plus 0.6 of that distance as the ball comes back up. Write a program that lets the user enter the initial height from which the ball is dropped, the bounciness index, and the number of times the ball is allowed to continue bouncing. Output should be the total distance traveled by the ball.
