Each of us weighs a tiny bit less on the ground floor of a skyscraper than we do on the top floor. one reason for this is that a. the gravitational field is shielded inside the building b. the mass of the building attracts you upward slightly c. both a and b d. none of the above

At time t=0, a particle is located at the point (3,6,9). it travels in a straight line to the point (5,2,7), has speed 8 at (3,6,9) and constant acceleration 2i−4j−2k. find an equation for the position vector of the particle.

Water is siphoned from a large tank and discharges into the atmosphere through a 50-mm diameter tube. the end of the tube is b = 2.6 m below the tank bottom which is a = 6.7 m deep, and viscous effects are negligible. determine the maximum height h over which the water can be siphoned without cavitation occurring. atmospheric pressure is 101.4 kpa, and the water vapor pressure is 1.79 kpa (absolute). report your answer in meters to two decimal places.

Aperson touches a large chunk of ice with their hand and remarks, “this is making me cold.” explain what this person is feeling. is the ice transferring “cold” to the person? is there a heat transfer occurring? explain.
