a mountain biker jumps a road gap this is 5m wide. they launch with an initial velocity of 1.5m/s and an initial height of 3m. what is the magnitude of their velocity as they land?

To travel at constant speed, a car engine provides 24kw of useful power. the driving force on the car is 600n. at what speed does it travel?

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.

Ethanol has a heat of vaporization of 38.56 kj/mol and a normal boiling point of 78.4 c. what is the vapor pressure of ethanol at 14 c?
