An astronaut finds herself in a predicament in which she has become untethered from her shuttle. She figures that she could get back to her shuttle by throwing one of three objects she possesses in the opposite direction of the shuttle. The masses of the objects are 5.4 kg, 7.9 kg, and 10.1 kg, respectively. She is able to throw the first object with a speed of 15.00 m/s, the second with a speed of 10.6 m/s, and the third with a speed of 5.5 m/s. If the mass of the astronaut and her remaining gear is 75.0 kg, determine the final speed of the astronaut with respect to the shuttle if she were to throw each object successively, starting with the least massive and ending with the most massive. Assume that the speeds described are those measured in the rest frame of the astronaut.

At each position in a 3D grid lies an atom with a positive or negative spin, specified by values +1 and -1, respectively. The spin value at each position is assigned randomly based on whether a randomly generated number is greater than or less than 0.5. I need to plot a 3D visualization of this grid using MATLAB in which positive spin locations are represented by markers of one color and negative spin locations are another color.

A: A bird watcher meanders through the woods, walking 0.30 km due east, 0.80 km due south, and 2.30 km in a direction 45.0° north of west. The time required for this trip is 4.00 h.

(a) Determine the magnitude and direction (relative to due west) of the bird watcher's displacement. Use kilometers and hours for distance and time, respectively.

(b) Determine the magnitude and direction (relative to due west) of the bird watcher's average velocity.

B: An airplane is flying with a velocity of 226 m/s at an angle of 30.0° with the horizontal, as the drawing shows. When the altitude of the plane is 2.1 km, a flare is released from the plane. The flare hits the target on the ground. What is the angle θ?

C: After leaving the end of a ski ramp, a ski jumper lands downhill at a point that is displaced 33 m horizontally from the end of the ramp. His velocity, just before landing, is 18.5 m/s and points in a direction 43° below the horizontal. Neglecting air resistance and any lift he experiences while airborne, find his initial velocity (magnitude and direction), when the he left the end of the ramp.

1.45 kg    of ice at   -5 ∘C    is dropped into   31 kg    of water at temperature   15.3 ∘C   .

Part A - Final Temperature

What is the final temperature of the system? (If I've set the problem up right, you should be given numbers such that all of the ice has melted.)

Part B - Entropy of Warming Ice

What is the change in entropy of the ice, as it warms up before melting?

Part C - Entropy of Ice Melting

What is the change in entropy of the ice as it melts?

Part D - Entropy of Water From Ice Warming Up

After the ice melts, it's just water, and this water still has to warm up to the final temperature. What is the entropy change of this process?

Part E - Change in Entropy of the Water Cooling

Meanwhile, the initially warm water is cooling down. What is the entropy change of this water, which is undergoing cooling?

Part F

What is the total change in the entropy of the system?

A magnetic field is perpendicular to the plane of a single-turn circular coil. The magnitude of the field is changing, so that an emf of 0.81 V and a current of 3.8 A are induced in the coil. The wire is then re-formed into a single-turn square coil, which is used in the same magnetic field (again perpendicular to the plane of the coil and with a magnitude changing at the same rate). What (a) emf and (b) current are induced in the square coil?

A 89.35-kg skier with an initial speed of v_i=43.91 m/s coasts up a H=15.58-m-high rise as shown in the figure. The slope angle is theta=50.33. What is her final speed at the top? Assume the coefficient of friction between her skis and the snow is 0.069 (Hint: Find the distance traveled up the incline assuming a straight-line path as shown in the figure.) Use g = 10 m/s².

A small circular coil with a radius of 1.00 cm has 20 turns and carries a current. A magnetic field probe is located somewhere along the coil's central axis, much farther from the coil's center than the coil's radius.

A. The probe indicates that the magnetic field points down the axis, towards the center of the coil. Looking down the axis towards the coil, the current must be flowing which way? (clockwise or counterclockwise)

B. At a distance of 3.0 meters from the center of the coil, the probe indicates that the coil's magnetic field has a magnitude of 13.0 pT (10^-12 T). How much current is flowing in the coil?

In laboratory tests, a new construction material was found to conduct heat at a rate of 10.2 Btu’s per hour per square meter of surface area. The temperature on one side of the wall was held at a constant 5 F while the other side was held at 70 F. The test specimen was 12.0 inches thick. What is the ambient air temperature (F) on the warm side of the wall? Assume there is free convection on the warm side of the wall, and the warm side is indoors.
