21.

The diagram shows a 0.12-kg square block at four positions along a track. The track is frictionless between points A and B. Elsewhere, the coefficient of static friction on the block is 0.26.

Initially, the block is held in place against a spring by a horizontal external force of magnitude 35 N. Then the external force is removed, and the block is projected forward with speed V1=1.2m/s . The block descends a ramp and has speed V2=1.4m/s at the bottom. At point C, its speed is V3=1.4m/s. The block stops at point D.

What is the initial compression of the spring?

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.

*Please answer all three parts

Three Part Question: X. (A) NASA Atmospheric Mission balloons use helium that expands to almost 1 million cubic meter at the top of the atmosphere where pressure is 0.003 atm only. Even though it takes about 2.5 hours to get to this altitude, it is assumed that the rise is fast enough to be considered as adiabatic. Find the initial volume of the helium at the ground level. (Helium is a mono-atomic gas). (B) If the initial temperature of the gas was 15 degree celsius what is the temperature of the gas at the top? Ignore real atmospheric temperature changes. (C) What is the change in internal energy of the gas?
