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? Figure P3.42
Two boats start together and race across a 60-km-wide lake andback. Boat A goes across at 60 km/h and returns at 60 km/h.Boat B goes across at 30 km/h, and its crew, realizing how farbehind it is getting, returns at 90 km/h. Turnaround times arenegligible, and the boat that completes the round trip firstwins. (a) Which boat wins and by how much? (Or is it a tie?)(b) What is the average velocityof the winning boat?
You and 3 of your friends are sitting in the MSA Plaza when you realize that it is time for physics class. You all race to class but each take different path to get there.
