A roller coaster is designed in which a 100 kg loaded car is pulled to the top of the first hill which is 120 m tall. The car is then released and travels the rest of the way under
the influence of gravity. (Show you work on each problem.)
1. How much work was done on the car in getting it to the top of the first hill?
2. How much potential energy did it have as it sat still at the top of the first hill?
3. What is the maximum speed that the car could have at the bottom of the first hill?
4. Why would you expect the car to be traveling a little slower than the speed
calculated in question 3?

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)

On a horizontal frictionless surface, a small block with mass 0.200 kg has a collision with a block of mass 0.400 kg. immediately after the collision, the 0.200 kg block is moving at 12.0 m/s in the direction 30° north of east and the 0.400 kg block is moving at 11.2 m/s in the direction 53.1° south of east. use coordinates where the +x-axis is east and the +y-axis is north.(a) what is the total kinetic energy of the two blocks after the collision (in ) what is the x-component of the total momentum of the two blocks after the collision? (indicate the direction with the sign of your ) what is the y-component of the total momentum of the two blocks after the collision? (indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.)

The flame produced by the burner of a gas (propane) grill is a pale blue color when enough air mixes with the propane (c3h8) to burn it completely. for every gram of propane that flows through the burner, what volume of air is needed to burn it completely? assume that the temperature of the burner is 195.0°c, the pressure is 1.05 atm, and the mole fraction of o2 in air is 0.210.
