Start with an ideal gas of volume 4m^3, at a pressure of 1200Pa, and temperature 289K. Construct a cycle using 3 or more processes (of your choice). For each process in your cycle calculate the Q, ?U, and W. Calculate the net change in each of these quantities for the entire cycle, and determine whether the work as a result of the cycle is done ON or BY the system.

You are pushing against the ground as you begin to leap into the air (but you are still in contact with the ground). (a) Are you accelerating as you begin your leap? Choose one answer only. No, you are not accelerating. Yes, you are accelerating upward. Yes, you are accelerating downward. Incorrect: Your answer is incorrect. (b) What is the net force acting on you as you begin your leap? Choose one answer only. The net force acting on you is zero. The net force acting on you is upward. The net force acting on you is downward. Incorrect: Your answer is incorrect. (c) Compare the normal force exerted on you by the ground to the gravitational force exerted on you by the earth (your weight). Choose one answer only. The normal force from the ground is smaller than your weight. The normal force from the ground is greater than your weight. The normal force from the ground is equal to your weight. Incorrect: Your answer is incorrect.

A small city requires about 10 MW of power. Suppose that instead of using high-voltage lines to supply the power, the power is delivered at 120 V.

Assuming a two-wire line of 0.48?cm -diameter copper wire, estimate the cost of the energy lost to heat per hour per meter. Assume the cost of electricity is about 10 cents per kWh.

1.) Your friend is catching a falling basketball after it has passed through the basket. Her hands move straight down while catching the ball. Take that it takes about 0.10 s for the player to lower her hands to stop the ball. Assume the mass of the ball to be 0.60 kg, and that it has fallen a vertical distance of 1.2 m before reaching the player's hand. Determine the average force that her hands exert on the ball while catching it.

2.) On a frictionless horizontal air table, puck A (with mass 0.248kg ) is moving toward puck B (with mass 0.372kg ), which is initially at rest. After the collision, puck A has velocity 0.125m/s to the left, and puck B has velocity 0.653m/s to the right.

What was the speed vAi of puck A before the collision?

Calculate ?K, the change in the total kinetic energy of the system that occurs during the collision.

After discovering that two hikers have been stranded on Devil's Thumb Pass, the Colorado Search and

Rescue team sends out a plane with supplies for the hikers. Because the hikers are in an isolated location, the

plane has to drop the supplies as it ies overhead. If the plane is 235 m above the hikers and

has a horizontal speed of 200 km/h, how far away from the hikers should the supplies be dropped if they are

to land at the hikers' location? (Hint: the initial y-component of the supplies' velocity is zero
