A 65-kg ice skater stands facing a wall with his arms bent and then pushes away from the wall by straightening his arms. At the instant at which his fingers lose contact with the wall, his center of mass has moved 0.45m , and at this instant he is traveling at 3.0m/s .

A. What are the average force exerted by the wall on him?.
B. What are the work done by the wall on him?.
C. What are the change in the kinetic energy of his center of mass?

The ultracentrifuge is an important tool for separating and analyzing proteins. because of the enormous centripetal accelerations, the centrifuge must be carefully balanced, with each sample matched by a sample of identical mass on the opposite side. any difference in the masses of opposing samples creates a net force on the shaft of the rotor, potentially leading to a catastrophic failure of the apparatus. suppose a scientist makes a slight error in sample preparation and one sample has a mass 10 mg larger than the opposing sample. if the samples are 12 cm from the axis of the rotor and the ultracentrifuge spins at 70,000 rpm, what is the magnitude of the net force on the rotor due to the unbalanced samples? ( be thorough on your answer)

(a) if the pressure in gas is doubled while its volume is held constant, by what factor do (i) vrms and (ii) change? (b) is it possible to boil water at room temperature (20oc) without heating it? explain.

Four identical lab carts each have a mass of 200 kg. different masses are added to the carts and the velocities are measured. all carts move to the right.
