Valerie and jake are performing the 1-d collisions experiment. they measure the mass of glider a to be 255 g and its length to be 17.3 cm. the same properties of glider b are 252 g and 17.2 cm. val pushes glider a through photogate #1, and jake reads the transit time from the computer display as 0.49 seconds. what is the speed of glider a, in m/s, as it passed through the photogate? jake pushes glider b through photogate #2 and calculates its speed to be 0.45 m/s. what is the momentum of glider b in kg m/s? val and jake run one of the four scenarios described in the procedure section. they add an additional 50.0 g of mass to glider b and start the experiment with glider b initially at rest. they measure the time for glider a to pass through photogate #1 to be 0.258 s. the collision occurs and glider a rebounds, going backwards through photogate #1 with a transit time of 2.883 s, while glider b passes forward through photogate #2 with a transit time of 0.282 s. calculate the total momentum of gliders a and b after the collision in kg m/s. in the trial run in pl-3, what is the total kinetic energy, in joules, of gliders a and b before the collision?

One day, after pulling down your window shade, you notice that sunlight is passing through a pinhole in the shade and making a small patch of light on the far wall. you see that the patch of light seems to be a circular diffraction pattern. it appears that the central maximum is about 1 cm across and you estimate that the distance from the window shade to the wall is about 3 m. what is (a) the average wavelength of sunlight? (b) the diameter of the pinhole?

An insulated 40 ft^3 rigid tank contains air at 50 psia and 120°f. a valve connected to the tank is now opened, and air is allowed to escape until the pressure inside drops to 25 psia. the air temperature during this process is kept constant by an electric resistance heater placed in the tank. determine the electrical work done during this process.
