The diagram illustrates a chute in a factory used for sliding boxes to a lower floor. The boxes start from rest at A; they slide a distance of 6 m down to B and then along the level to C, where they enter an endless conveyor belt. Calculate the distance BC required, if friction coefficient = 0.20 and the boxes are to enter the belt with a velocity of (0.8 + 0.XY) m/s. A W

A baseball is thrown vertically upward with an initial velocity of 9 m/s. Neglecting air friction, what will the speed of the baseball as it goes back to its original position/height? A) 20 m/s B) 4.5 m/s C) 9 m/s D) 15 m/s
A landscape architect is planning an artificial waterfall in a city park. Water flowing at 1.70 m/s will leave the end of a horizontal channel at the top of a vertical wall h = 2.35 m high, and from there it will fall into a pool (Fig. P3.42). (a) Will the space behind the waterfall be wide enough for a pedestrian walkway? (b) To sell her plan to the city council, the architect wants to build a model to standard scale, which is one-twelfth actual size. How fast should the water flow in the channel in the model?
