Block 1 (0.5 kg) travels with
an initial velocity of [ 40i ] +
[ 60j ] m/s and then collides with block

velocity of [ -40i ] + [ -40j ]
m/s.
After the collision, block 1 has a final
momentum of [ 5i ] + [ -25j ]

Question 1: At a height of ten meters above the surface of a freshwater lake, a sound pulse is generated. The echo from the bottom of the lake returns to the point of origin 0.175 s later. The air and water temperatures are 20 oC. How deep is the lake?
Question2: A hunter is standing on flat ground between two vertical cliffs that are directly opposite one another. He is closer to one cliff than the other. He fires a gun and, after a while, hears three echoes. The second echo arrives 1.92 s after the first, and the third echo arrives 1.46 s after the second. Assuming that the speed of sound is 343 m/s and that there are no reflections of sound from the ground, find the distance (in m) between the cliffs.

You drop a 2.00 kg book to a friend who stands on the ground at distance D = 12.0 m below. Your friend's outstretched hands are at distance d = 1.80 m above the ground (see the figure). (a) What is the speed of the book when it reaches her hands? (b) If we substituted a second book with twice the mass, what would its speed be when it reaches her hands? (c) If, instead, the book were thrown down with initial speed 5.00 m/s, what would be the answer to (a)?

Two slits of width 2 μm, each in an opaque material, are separated by a center-to-center distance of 6 μm. A monochromatic light of wavelength 450 nm is incident on the double-slit. One finds a combined interference and diffraction pattern on the screen.
(a) How many peaks of the interference will be observed in the central maximum of the diffraction pattern?
(b) How many peaks of the interference will be observed if the slit width is doubled while keeping the distance between the slits same?
(c) How many peaks of interference will be observed if the slits are separated by twice the distance, that is, 12 μm,
while keeping the widths of the slits same?
(d) What will happen in (a) if instead of 450-nm light another light of wavelength 680 nm is used?
(e) What is the value of the ratio of the intensity of the central peak to the intensity of the next bright peak in (a)?
(f) Does this ratio depend on the wavelength of the light?
(g) Does this ratio depend on the width or separation of the slits?

We have to calculate the value of Power of an electric DC motor IN WATTS made from scratch. The only known values that we have are: The Voltage (V) which is 9V and the current (I) that we are using which is 3 A, also the value of "n" which is n= 90.16 m (the number of turns of the wire used in the motor)
I already asked here for this problem and someone answered this:
Voltage = 9 V, current = 3 A, number of turns = n = 90.16
Power of motor = n*V*I = 90.16*9*3=2434.32 Watt
But I don’t think this is correct since the motor has power in and power out. Can someone else help? Thank you!
