Use your weight in pounds (while standing on the surface of the Earth) to calculate your mass in the following units (1 kg weighs approx. 2.205 lb on the surface of the Earth). Show all your calculation, how you cancel the units and use the correct number of digits to get credit. Use scientific notation. Weight in pounds = 200 mass in grams = mass in kilograms = mass in teragrams = mass in picograms =
A gas occupying a volume of 28 ft3 weighs 3.1 lbf on planet X where the acceleration of gravity is 5.97 ft/s2. If its density is 0.6 lbm/ft3, in planet Y, what is the acceleration of gravity in planet Y in ft/s2 ( 2 decimal places)
Graph below represents the force on a 12 kg air mass as it passes through a jet engine. Immediately after entering the engine, the force is 9,039 N, and the force tapers linearly to zero once the air reaches the back of the engine 2.3 m later. If the air enters the engine with velocity 252 m/s, what is its exit velocity? (Please answer to the fourth decimal place - i.e 14.3225)
This is a graph for an experiment that examines the change in kinetic energy. A mass hanger of 10 g was used for this experiment and this is the graph showing the change in kinetic energy versus distance it travelled. If another student repeated the experiment, but with a 5 g mass hanger instead, does the acceleration increase? How would this look like in the graph? Please draw a line in this graph to show this scenario.
From your graph of T2 vs. l, determine a value for g.
Experiment #2: Acceleration vs. Mass Link https://phet.colorado.edu/sims/html/forces-and-motion-basics/latest/forces-and-motion-basics_en.html In this lab you will determine the relationship between acceleration and mass. Choose an Applied Force at the beginning, and keep it constant for this entire experiment. Set the friction to zero. This will make your Applied Force equal to the net force. Record data for five different values of Mass. Graph Acceleration vs. Mass. Graph this in Google sheets(you want a line graph - it should only have one line). Make sure that Mass information is used as the x value Make sure that Acceleration information is used as the y value Add a trendline – see what fits best – linear, exponential, polynomial, etc … Add a copy of you graph below the table Applied Force (N) Mass (kg) Acceleration (m/s²)

The pressure in a water tower is 20,674 Pascals (N/m2) higher than at an open faucet. The density of water is 1000 Kg/m3. Use Bernoulli’s equation to determine the velocity of outflow from the open faucet. If the height difference between the top water level in the tower and the faucet is 7.2 meters, then the velocity of outflow is ROUND TO 3 DECIMAL PLACES
Seawater can be purified by distillation into potable water. If it costs 15 cents per kilowatt-hour for energy, what is the cost of energy to produce 100.0 gallons of drinking water at 100.0 ˚C if the seawater starts at 25.00 ˚C? (1 watt × 1 second = 1 joule).
