- 1-35 You are taken for a helicopter ride in Hawaii from Kona (sea level) to the top of the volcano Mauna Kea. Which property of your body would change during the helicopter ride? (a) height (b) weight (c) volume (d) massarrow_forward1-65 While you drive your car, your battery is being charged. How would you describe this process in terms of kinetic and potential energy?arrow_forward1-67 If 168 g of an unknown liquid requires 2750 cal of heat to raise its temperature from 26oC to 74oC, what is the specific heat of the liquid?arrow_forward
- 1-78 The kinetic energy possessed by an object with a mass of 1 g moving with a velocity of 1 cm/s is called 1 erg. What is the kinetic energy, in ergs, of an athlete with a mass of 127 lb running at a velocity of 14.7 mi/h?arrow_forwardWhich is the higher temperature, 15C or 4F?arrow_forwardConsider the following rulers as instruments for the measurement of length. Using the rulers given in Problem 2-23, what would the uncertainty be in measurements made using the following? a. Ruler 2 b. Ruler 3arrow_forward
- A moving-van crew picks up the following items: a couch that weighs 147 pounds, a chair that weighs 67.7 pounds, a piano at 3.6 x 10 2 pounds, and several boxes having a total weight of 135.43 pounds.
