An air bubble of 21 cm3 volume is at the bottom of a lake 32 m deep where the temperature is 4.0°C. The bubble rises to the surface, which is at a temperature of 24°C. Take the temperature of the bubble's air to be the same as that of the surrounding water. Just as the bubble reaches the surface, what is its volume?

1) A wheel with a weight of 396 N comes off a moving truck and rolls without slipping along a highway. At the bottom of a hill it is rotating at an angular velocity of 27.5 rad/s . The radius of the wheel is 0.584 m and its moment of inertia about its rotation axis is 0.800 MR2. Friction does work on the wheel as it rolls up the hill to a stop, at a height of h above the bottom of the hill; this work has a magnitude of 3550 J .
Calculate h.
Use 9.81 m/s2 for the acceleration due to gravity.
2) A hollow spherical shell with mass 2.45 kg rolls without slipping down a slope that makes an angle of 38.0 ∘ with the horizontal.

Part B
Find the magnitude of the frictional force acting on the spherical shell.

1. The Lifetime of the Sun. The total mass of the sun is about 2 x 1030 kg, of which about 75% was hydrogen when the sun formed. However, only about 13% of this hydrogen ever becomes available for fusion in the core. The rest remains in layers of the sun where the temperature is too low for fusion.
a) Use the given data to calculate the total mass of hydrogen available for fusion over the lifetime of the sun.
b) The sun fuses about 600 billion kilograms of hydrogen each second. Based on your results from part (a), calculate how long the sun’s initial supply of hydrogen can last (in seconds, and in years); that is, calculate the expected lifetime of the sun.
c) Given that our solar system is now about 4.6 billion years old, when will we need to worry about the sun running out of hydrogen?

Boxing gloves are padded to lessen the force of a blow.
(a) Calculate the force exerted by a boxing glove on an
opponent's face, if the glove and face compress 7.00 cm during a
blow in which the 8.00 kg arm and glove are brought to rest from an
initial speed of 10.0 m/s.
N
(b) Calculate the force exerted by an identical blow in the gory
old days when no gloves were used and the knuckles and face would
compress only 2.00 cm. (Assume the total mass of the arm remains
8.00 kg.)
N
(c) Discuss the magnitude of the force with glove on. Does it seem
high enough to cause damage even though it is lower than the force
with no glove?
In a downhill ski race surprisingly little advantage is gained by getting a running start. This is because the initial kinetic energy is small compared with the gain in gravitational potential energy even on small hills. To demonstrate this, find the final speed and the time taken for a skier who skies 70.0 m along a 25° slope neglecting friction for the following two cases. (Note that this time difference can be very significant in competitive events so it is still worthwhile to get a running start.)

(b) starting with an initial speed of 3.00 m/s

(a) How high a hill can a car coast up (engine disengaged) if
friction is negligible and its initial speed is 76.0 km/h?

(b) If, in actuality, a 750 kg car with an initial speed of 76.0
km/h is observed to coast up a hill to a height 11.0 m above its
starting point, how much thermal energy was generated by
friction?

(c) What is the average force of friction if the hill has a slope
