William leaves Kitchener and Mike leaves Rockwood at the same time both headed towards each others’ city along identical routes. They both have constant speeds but Mike’s is greater. They pass each other at noon without stopping. If Mike hikes into Kitchener at 1:00 PM and William reaches Rockwood at 2:15 PM at what time did they both set off? Hint: Draw a position diagram and find an equation for each distance.

Two people are headed towards each other on skateboards and experience very little friction or airresistance. One person has massm1= 40 kg and one has mass m2= 80 kg. If they are going equal velocities(v = 3 m/s)before the collision, which direction will they be going afterward? How fast?What if we allow the lighter person to start off on a hill of height h. What should h be so that after the collision both skateboarders have stopped?

Message passing is both time- and space-coupled – that is, messages are both directed towards a particular entity and require the receiver to be present at the time of the message send. Consider the case of using the learning platform, where you connect using URL “learning rather than an IP address and this name is resolved using DNS. Does such a system exhibit the same level of indirection?

Two projectiles with 50kg mass each are launched in opposite directions towards each other, both at an angle of 30 degrees off the horizontal. They both have the same initial velocity of 75m/s and they are separated by a distance of 200m. a.) What is their combined initial kinetic energy? b.) Right before they collide, how high off the ground are they? c.) What is their total momentum here? (both directions) d.) When they collide they stick together and lost...

The Barry family had two sons in college at the same time. Their parents gave both boys an allowance for food and textbooks. For simplicity, assume Drew and Brent have identical preferences between food and textbooks and that both are normal goods. Drew went to Georgia Tech University (GT), while Brent went to Oregon State University (OSU), where food prices were higher. Both boys bought their textbooks from an online store with free shipping and no tax, so they paid...

Bifocal glasses are used to correct both nearsightedness and farsightedness at the same time. (Figure 1) Part A: If the near points in the right and left eyes are 38.0 cm and 46.0 cm , respectively, and the far point is 210 cm for both eyes, what are the powers of the lens prescribed for the right eye? (Assume that the glasses are worn 3.00 cm from the eyes.) Part B: What are the powers of the lens prescribed for...

1. There are two players. Each names an amount at the same time as the other. They can say $0 or say $10 or anything in between, even fractions of cents. If the amounts total $10 or less they get what they named. If they total more than $10 they get $0. What are the Nash equilbria? To solve this try some pairs of amounts. If they aren’t equilibria – if one player or both could do better by changing...

A careless university student leaves her iClicker device behind with probability 1/4 each time she attends a class. She sets out with her iClicker device to attend 5 different classes (each class is in a different lecture theatre). Part 1) If she arrives home without her iClicker device and she is sure she has the iClicker device after leaving the first class, what is the probability (to 3 SIGNIFICANT figures) that she left it in the 5th class? Probability =...
