(a) At a certain instant, a particle-like object is acted on by a force F= (5.7 N)i -(2.7 N)j + (5.0 N)k while the object's velocity is v= -(2.3 m/s)i + (5.8 m/s)k. What is the instantaneous rate at which the force does work on the object?
(b) At some other time, the velocity consists of only a y component. If the force is unchanged, and the instantaneous power is -8.70 W, what is the velocity of the object just then? (Give your answer without a unit vector.)

Animals respond in various ways to stimuli detected through their senses. some of these responses are stimulated by the presence of danger. which of these animal responses is the best example of a response to an immediate threat? a) a rooster crows every morning at the first sign of light. b) as something approaches an octopus, it shoots a cloud of ink. c) from late fall until spring, bears hibernate to preserve energy. reactivate d) a dog is getting hot in the sunlight, so he moves to a shaded area.

Follow these directions and answer the questions. 1. set up the ripple tank as in previous investigations. 2. bend the rubber tube to form a "concave mirror" and place in the ripple tank. the water level must be below the top of the hose. 3. generate a few straight pulses with the dowel and observe the reflected waves. do the waves focus (come together) upon reflection? can you locate the place where the waves meet? 4. touch the water surface where the waves converged. what happens to the reflected wave? 5. move your finger twice that distance from the hose (2f = c of c, center of the curvature) and touch the water again. does the image (the reflected wave) appear in the same location (c of c)? you may have to experiment before you find the exact location. sometimes it is hard to visualize with the ripple tank because the waves move so quickly. likewise, it is impossible to "see" light waves because they have such small wavelengths and move at the speed of light. however, both are examples of transverse waves and behave in the same way when a parallel wave fronts hit a curved surface.

The unit of resistivity is the: ohm ohm-cm volt coulomb
