The day on mars is 1.026 earth-days long. the martian year lasts 686.98 earth-days. the two moons of mars take 0.32 earth-day (for phobos) and 1.26 earth-days (for deimos) to circle the planet. you are given the task of coming up with a martian calendar for a new mars colony. would a solar or lunar calendar be better for tracking the seasons?

The man of mass m1 and the woman of mass m2 are standing on opposite ends of the platform of mass m0 which moves with negligible friction and is initially at rest with s = 0. the man and woman begin to approach each other. derive an expression for the displacement s of the platform when the two meet in terms of the displacement x1 of the man relative to the platform.

Astudent throws a water balloon with speed v0 from a height h = 1.76 m at an angle θ = 21° above the horizontal toward a target on the ground. the target is located a horizontal distance d = 9.5 m from the student’s feet. assume that the balloon moves without air resistance. use a cartesian coordinate system with the origin at the balloon's initial position. (a) what is the position vector, rtarge t, that originates from the balloon's original position and terminates at the target? put this in terms of h and d, and represent it as a vector using i and j. (b) in terms of the variables in the problem, determine the time, t, after the launch it takes the balloon to reach the target. your answer should not include h. (c) create an expression for the balloon's vertical position as a function of time, y(t), in terms of t, vo, g, and θ. (d) determine the magnitude of the balloon's initial velocity, v0, in meters per second, by eliminating t from the previous two expressions.

Acapacitor is storing energy of 3 joules with a voltage of 50 volts across its terminals. a second identical capacitor of the same value is storing energy of 1 joule. what is the voltage across the terminals of the second capacitor?
