Consider a system of a cliff diver and the Earth. The gravitational potential energy of the system decreases by 28,000 J as the diver drops to the water from a height of 40.0 m. Determine her weight in newtons.

Abaseball picther can throw a ball at about 90 miles per hour, v = 40 m/s, on solid rock ground. we now put him into space. when he throws the ball, which weighs mb = 0.15 kg moves away from himat the same speed. how long does it take the ball thrown in space to travel the 30 meters to the batter? he weighs mp = 100kg

Current from a charged capacitor lights a bulb. as time goes on the brightness of the

Avertical clean glass piezometer tube has an inside diameter of d = 1 mm and is used to measure pressure in a horizontal pipe carrying water as shown. due to pressure in the pipe, the water at 20c rises into the tube to a height h. if the water pressure in the pipe is p = 500 pa gauge, estimate the height h: (a) without considering surface tension (b) with surface tension (capillary) effects. the contact angle  can be assumed at 30 deg
