Auniform hollow spherical ball of mass 1.75 kg and radius 40.0 cm rolls without slipping up a ramp that rises at 30.0° above the horizontal. the speed of the ball at the base of the ramp is 2.63 m/s. (a) while the ball is moving up the ramp, find the magnitude of the acceleration of its center of mass.

Uranium has two naturally occurring isotopes. 238u has a natural abundance of 99.3% and 235u has an abundance of 0.7%. it is the rarer 235u that is needed for nuclear reactors. the isotopes are separated by forming uranium hexafluoride uf6, which is a gas, then allowing it to diffuse through a series of porous membranes. 235uf6 has a slightly larger rms speed than 238uf6 and diffuses slightly faster. many repetitions of this procedure gradually separate the two isotopes. what is the ratio of the rms speed of 235uf6 to that of 238uf6? express your answer to five significant figures.
