A rescue helicopter is hovering over a person whose boat has sunk. One of the rescuers throws a life preserver straight down to the victim with an initial velocity of 2.30 m/s and observes that it takes 2.0 s to reach the water. (a) List the knowns in this problem.
(b) How high above the water was the preserver released? Note that the downdraft of the helicopter reduces the effects of air resistance on the falling life preserver, so that an acceleration equal to that of gravity is reasonable.

An electric power distributor charges residential customers $0.10 per kilowatt-hour (kwh). the company advertises that "green power" is available in 150 kwh blocks for an additional $4 per month. (green power is generated from solar, wind power, and methane sources.) if a certain customer uses an average of 391 kwh per month and commits to one monthly 150 kwh block of green power, what is her annual power bill
