A plate capacitor C has an initial charge Q and plates separation d. A dielectric material (k=2) is inserted between the plates at the mean while the separation parallel between the plates is doubled (to become 2d). So, in this process one statement below is wrong:
a) U is the same
b) Q is the same
c) V is the same
d) E is the same

a 70 kg skier is being towed on a rope behind a 450 kg snowmobile on a smooth, snow covered surface at 14 m/s when the snowmobile hits a patch of muddy ground that brings it to a hlat in 10m
What is the average acceleration of the center of mass of the skier-snowmobile system?

When jumping straight down, you can be seriously injured if you land stiff-legged. One way to avoid injury is to bend your knees upon landing to reduce the force of the impact. A 72.9-kg man just before contact with the ground has a speed of 8.74 m/s. (a) In a stiff-legged landing he comes to a halt in 1.71 ms. Find the magnitude of the average net force that acts on him during this time. (b) When he bends his knees, he comes to a halt in 0.268 s. Find the magnitude of the average net force now. (c) During the landing, the force of the ground on the man points upward, while the force due to gravity points downward. The average net force acting on the man includes both of these forces. Taking into account the directions of the forces, find the magnitude of the force applied by the ground on the man in part (b).

An ideal gas with γ=1.4 occupies 4.5 L at 300 K and 110 kPa pressure and is compressed adiabatically until its volume is 2.0 L. It's then cooled at constant pressure until it reaches 300 K, then allowed to expand isothermally back to stateA.
Find the net work done on the gas.
Find the minimum volume reached.

Two ice skaters, Daniel (mass 65.0kg ) and Rebecca (mass 45.0kg ), are practicing. Daniel stops to tie his shoelace and, while at rest, is struck by Rebecca, who is moving at 13.0m/s before she collides with him. After the collision, Rebecca has a velocity of magnitude 8.00m/s at an angle of 53.1? from her initial direction. Both skaters move on the frictionless, horizontal surface of the rink.
Part A
What is the magnitude of Daniel's velocity after the collision?
Part B
What is the direction of Daniel's velocity after the collision?
Part C
What is the change in total kinetic energy of the two skaters as a result of the collision?

A cyclist turns her bicycle upside down to repair it. She then notices that the front wheel is executing a slow, small amplitude, back-and-forth rotational motion with period 12 s. Treating the wheel as a thin ring of mass 600 g and radius 30 cm, whose only irregularity is the tire valve stem, determine the mass of the valve stem.
