A 50 cm long rod is half aluminum and half copper. The aluminum end is in boiling water. The end of an aluminum rod (50 cm long) is maintained at 100 C by immersing in a pot of boiling water and the other end at 00C by an ice-water mixture. If the cross-sectional area of the rod is 1.3 cm2, how much will the rod melt in 20 min? What will be the steady temperature at the Al-Cu junction?

A 7450 kg rocket blasts off vertically from the launch pad with a constant upward acceleration of 2.25 m/s2 and feels no appreciable air resistance. When it has reached a height of 500 m , its engines suddenly fail so that the only force acting on it is now gravity.

A. What is the maximum height this rocket will reach above the launch pad?

B. How much time after engine failure will elapse before the rocket comes crashing down to the launch pad?

C. How fast will it be moving just before it crashes?

A sports car is moving at a constant velocity in the +x direction on a flat horizontal street.

1) The net force on the car is doing positive work. True or False

2) The driver presses the accelerator, the car accelerates in the same direction and, thus positive non-conservative work is being done.  True or False

3) As the car accelerates, the kinetic energy increases and the momentum decreases.  True or False

4) As the car accelerates, the potential energy decreases.  True or False

5) The driver stops pressing the accelerator and the cars coasts without friction up a ramp. Going up the ramp the total mechanical energy is constant  True or False

6) While moving up the ramp, the potential energy increases by the same amount as the kinetic energy decreases.  True or False

7) When the car started coasting, its speed was 10.0 m/s. How much higher does the car go before starting to roll backwards? (in units of meters)

8) If all other conditions were the same the car would go higher on the moon.  True or False

9) The kinetic energy of a rolling ball can decrease without a change in its speed.  True or False

10) If the kinetic energy of a rolling ball increases, the magnitude of its momentum must decrease.  True or False

1) How well do the shapes of the equipotential curves and the electric field lines reflect the geometry of the charge distribution?

2) One of the theoretical rules of electric fields is that the equipotential curves is that the equipotential curves never cross each other, nor the fields lines. So imagine in an experiment, they cross each other. What will be the cause of that case in this experiment?
