A 0.21 kg hockey puck has a velocity of 2.2 m/s toward the east (the +x direction) as it slides over the frictionless surface of an ice hockey rink. What are the:
(a) magnitude and (b) direction of the constant net force that must act on the puck during a 0.43 s time interval to change the puck's velocity to 3.7 m/s toward the west?
and what are the:
(c) magnitude and (d) direction if, instead, the velocity is changed to 3.7 m/s toward the south?
Give your directions as positive (counterclockwise) angles measured from the +x direction.

A red ball is thrown down with an initial speed of 1.3 m/s from a height of 27 meters above the ground. Then, 0.5 seconds after the red ball is thrown, a blue ball is thrown upward with an initial speed of 24.8 m/s, from a height of 0.7 meters above the ground. The force of gravity due to the earth results in the balls each having a constant downward acceleration of 9.81 m/s2.

A 75.0 kg ice hockey goalie, originally at rest, catches a 0.150 kg hockey puck slapped at him at a velocity of 18.0 m/s. Suppose the goalie and the ice puck have an elastic collision and the puck is reflected back in the direction from which it came. What would their final velocities (in m/s) be in this case? (Assume the original direction of the ice puck toward the goalie is in the positive direction. Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.)
puck ____ m/s
goalie ____ m/s

An 80 kg skydiver falls through air with a density of 1.15 kg/m3 . Assume that his drag coefficient is C=0.57. When he falls in the spread-eagle position his body presents an area A1=0.94 m2 to the wind, whereas when he dives head first, with arms close to the body and legs together his area is reduced to A2=0.21 m2 . What are the terminal speeds in both cases?

In a particular Millikan oil-drop apparatus, the plates are 2.25 cm apart. The oil used has a density of 0.815 g/cm3 , and the atomizer that sprays the oil drops produces drops of diameter 1.00×10−3 mm.
A) What strength of electric field is needed to hold such a drop stationary against gravity if the drop contains five extra electrons?
B) What should be the potential difference across the plates to produce this electric field?
C) If another drop of the same oil requires a plate potential of 65.3 V to hold it stationary, how many excess electrons did it contain?
