11. Calculate the density of a mineral sample if it causes the water level in a graduated cylinder to increase from 22.3 mL to 35.6 mL and has a mass of 60.896 g.

Taylor's experiment: 1. accurately measured the speed of light 2. locked together the phases of two light sources so that the interference pattern would not shift 3. showed that man's reaction time was much slower than the speed of light 4. showed that individual photons have wave characteristics

A23 kg log of wood begins from rest, 300 m up a sluice (a water track used to transport logs, think of it as an inclined plane with negligible friction) inclined at 20° to the horizontal. after it reaches the flat waterway at the bottom it collides elastically with a 100 kg block of wood initially at rest near the base of the incline. (a) how long does it take the 23 kg log to travel down the incline? (b) what is the speed of the 23 kg log at the bottom of the incline? (c) what are the velocities of both blocks of wood after the collision? (d) what is the total kinetic energy before the collision? (e) what is the kinetic energy of the 23 kg log after the collision? (f) what is the kinetic energy of the 100 kg block of wood after the collision? (g) what is the total kinetic energy after the collision? (h) compare the total initial and total final kinetic energies. is this consistent with what you would expect for elastic collisions? explain!
