Part 1
QUESTION How would the time of the jump and the horizontal distance traveled change if g were changed, for example if the jump could be repeated with the same initial velocity on a different planet? (Select all that apply.)
Note: I answered b and c from one of your previous post, and got the answer wrong.
a. The time of the jump increases when g is smaller.
b. The displacement increases with increased time of the jump.
c. The time of the jump decreases when g is smaller.
d. Increasing the time of the jump has no effect on the displacement.
e. The displacement decreases with increased time of the jump.

A bartender slides a beer mug at 1.2 m/s towards a customer at the end of a frictionless bar that is 1.3 m tall. The customer makes a grab for the mug and misses, and the mug sails off the end of the bar.
(a) How far away from the end of the bar does the mug hit the floor? 0.6181m (This is correct)
(b) What are the speed and direction of the mug at impact?
Speed____________m/s
Direction __________degree below the horizontal

The figure is an overhead view of a thin uniform rod of length 0.467 m and mass M rotating horizontally at angular speed 15.7 rad/s about an axis through its center. A particle of mass M/3 initially attached to one end is ejected from the rod and travels along a path that is perpendicular to the rod at the instant of ejection. If the particle's speed vp is 3.32 m/s greater than the speed of the rod end just after ejection, what is the value of vp?

An electron is released from rest at the negative plate of a parallel plate capacitor and accelerates to the positive plate (see the drawing). The plates are separated by a distance of 1.4 cm, and the electric field within the capacitor has a magnitude of 2.0 x 10^6 V/m. What is the kinetic energy of the electron just as it reaches the positive plate?

Consider the situation where one IOLab device rolls into another stationary IOlab device and they stick together and they roll off together. When answering the following questions, answer them specifically for this situation.
How could you calculate the total momentum before the collision?
How could you calculate the total momentum after the collision?
How could you calculate the total kinetic energy before the collision?
How could you calculate the total kinetic energy after the collision?
(Extra information: the IOLab device can generate both Force/Time graphs and Velocity/ Time graphs)

A 58.0 kg bungee jumper is standing on a tall platform (ho = 46.0 m) as shown in the diagram. The bungee cord has an unstrained length of Lo = 9.00 m, and when stretched, behaves like an ideal spring with a spring constant of k = 61.0 N/m. The jumper falls from rest, and the only forces acting on him are gravity and, for the latter part of the descent, the elastic force of the bungee cord. What is his speed when he is at the following heights above the water? (a) hA = 37.0 m and (b) hB = 15.0 m? Ignore the mass of the bungee cord.

a photon beam is made from a target with a high impedance. electron beams of 6 and 16Mev are used in the process, shot at the target. the ratio of beam intensity is measured in the direction of the electron beam (0 degrees) and at 25 degrees from the angle of incidence.nFor what electron bean energy (and why) is the ratio of intensities (i0/i25) the largest?

Modern International Maritime Organization (IMO) regulations specify that ships longer than 200 m must have a ship's whistle whose frequency is between 70 and 192 Hz. Suppose that a 235-m ship has a whistle whose frequency is 187 Hz. If the ship is stationary, what is the maximum speed that an approaching observer can have so that the ship's whistle still satisfies IMO regulations?
Two trains are traveling on the same track and in the same direction. The first train is moving at a speed of 37.2 m/s and blows its horn, whose frequency is 255 Hz. The second train, which is behind the first, detects a frequency of 238 Hz. What is the speed of the second train?

READING 2 The eardrum is displaced surprisingly little when a sound wave strikes it. Some idea of the displacement of the eardrum by a sound wave can be obtained by using Equation 7.1: Equation for wave energy The displacement amplitude, A, of the air molecules gives us a lower limit to the displacement of the eardrum.
At the threshold of hearing at 3.4 kHz, the sound intensity is about 10−12W/m2. The threshold of pain begins at an intensity of 1.0W/m2 (19).
What is the amplitude of eardrum vibrations at these intensities?
The density of air is 1.3kg/m3. The speed of sound is 331m/s.
Please write your answers with one decimal places.
(________________10^−3 nm (at threshold of hearing) (This value is ~ 3/100 the diameter of a hydrogen atom!)
________________10^3 nm (at threshold of pain)
I believe the answer to the first question is 3.19 x to^-3 nm
