On a distant planet, golf is just as popular as it is on earth. A golfer tees off and drives the ball 2.7 times as far as he would have on earth, given the same initial velocities on both planets. The ball is launched at a speed of 41 m/s at an angle of 36° above the horizontal. When the ball lands, it is at the same level as the tee.
(a) On the distant planet, what is the maximum height of the ball?
(b) On the distant planet, what is the range of the ball?

In reaching her destination, a backpacker walks with an average velocity of 1.05 m/s, due west. This average velocity results, because she hikes for 5.66 km with an average velocity of 2.54 m/s due west, turns around, and hikes with an average velocity of 0.403 m/s due east. How far east did she walk (in kilometers)?

Visitors at a science museum are invited to sit in a chair to the right of a full-length diverging lens (f1 = -3.30 m) and observe a friend sitting in a second chair, 1.80 m to the left of the lens. The visitor then presses a button and a converging lens (f2 = +4.50 m) rises from the floor to a position 2.10 m to the right of the diverging lens, allowing the visitor to view the friend through both lenses at once. Find (a) the magnification of the friend when viewed through the diverging lens only and (b) the overall magnification of the friend when viewed through both lenses. Be sure to include the algebraic sign (+ or -) with your answers.
