The angular position of a point on the rim of a rotating wheel is given by θ = 3.38t - 2.46t2 + 2.61t3, where θ is in radians and t is in seconds. What are the angular velocities at (a) t = 1.17 s and (b) t = 9.53 s? (c) What is the average angular acceleration for the time interval that begins at t = 1.17 s and ends at t = 9.53 s? What are the instantaneous angular accelerations at (d) the beginning and (e) the end of this time interval?

Ironman steps from the top of a tall building. He falls freely from rest to the ground a distance of h. He falls a distance of h/ 4 in the last interval of time of 1.0 s of his fall.

Hint: First, compute the velocity when Ironman reaches the height equal to the distance fallen. This requires that you do the following: define origin as the bottom of the building. Then use x-x0 = -v0*(t-t0)-(1/2)g(t-t0)^2 where x=0 and x0= (distance fallen) and t-t0 is the time interval given. In this formulation, you are going to get magnitude of v0 since you already inserted the sign. You then insert v0 that you just calculated into the kinematic equation that involves v, g, and displacement (v^2-v0^2 = 2g(height-(distance fallen)), but now v (which is the final velocity is v0 from above) and v0 in this case is the velocity that the Ironman has when he begins to fall, which is 0. This gives a quadratic equation for height h, and you will need to use the binomial equation to solve for h. Choose the larger of the two solutions.

Part A

What is the height h of the building?

Express your answer using two significant figures.

A 2.50 kg block on a horizontal floor is attached to a horizontal spring that is initially compressed 0.0300 m . The spring has force constant 835 N/m . The coefficient of kinetic friction between the floor and the block is 0.41 . The block and spring are released from rest and the block slides along the floor. Part A What is the speed of the block when it has moved a distance of 0.0130 m from its initial position? (At this point the spring is compressed 0.0170 m .)

A 110cm3 box contains helium at a pressure of 2.00atm and a temperature of 100?C. It is placed in thermal contact with a 210cm3 box containing argon at a pressure of 4.00atm and a temperature of 420?C.

What is the initial thermal energy of each gas?

What is the final thermal energy of each gas?

How much heat energy is transferred, and in which direction?

What is the final temperature?

What is the final pressure in each box?
