You have seen dogs shake to shed water from their fur. the motion is complicated, but the fur on a dog's torso rotates back and forth along a roughly circular arc. water droplets are held to the fur by contact forces, and these forces provide the centripetal acceleration that keeps the droplets moving in a circle, still attached to the fur, if the dog shakes gently. but these contact forces - like static friction - have a maximum possible value. as the dog shakes more vigorously, the contact forces cannot provide sufficient centripetal acceleration and the droplets fly off. a big dog has a torso that is approximately circular, with a radius of 16 cm . at the midpoint of a shake, the dog's fur is moving at a remarkable 2.5 m/s . part a) what force is required to keep a 10 mg water droplet moving in this circular arc? part b) what is the ratio of this force to the weight of a droplet?

Atank has a shape of a cone with a radius at the top of 2 m and a height of 5 m. the tank also has a 1 m spout at the top of the tank. the tank is filled with water up to a height of 2 m. find the work needed to pump all the water out the top of the spout. (use 9.8 m/s2 for g and the fact that the density of water is 1000 kg/m3.)
