A 0.70-m aluminum bar is held with its length parallel to the east-west direction and dropped from a bridge. Just before the bar hits the river below, its speed is 29 m/s, and the emf induced across its length is 7.0 x 10-4 V. Assuming the horizontal component of the Earth's magnetic field at the location of the bar points directly north, (a) determine the magnitude of the horizontal component of the Earth's magnetic field, and (b) state whether the east end or the west end of the bar is positive.

Two parallel paths 20 m apart run east–west through the woods. Brooke walks east on one path at 7 km / h, while Jamail walks west on the other path at 5 km / h. If they pass each other at time t = 0 , how far apart are they 11 s later, and how fast is the distance between them changing at that moment?

When an iron bar of mass m is dropped through a height difference Δh, its potential energy changes by the amount mgΔh, where g is the acceleration of gravity, equal to 9.81 m s-2. Suppose that when the bar hits the ground, all that energy is converted to heat, increasing the temperature of the bar. If the specific heat capacity of the material in the bar is 0.444 J K-1 g-1, calculate the height from which the bar must be...
