Moana is a sailing from her home to a nearby island which is 215 miles north and 33 miles west. There is a constant ocean current of 0.50 knots moving from west to east. Moana can sail her boat at a cruising speed of 5.5 miles per hour in still water.

1. What angle should Moana sail to get to the island?

2. How long will it take her to get there?

3. Moana’s friend Maui is floating on a raft that is moving with the ocean current (meaning, he is not traveling with respect to the water). Would Maui see Moana’s boat traveling with a speed faster than, slower than, or equal to what an observer standing on the shore would see? Explain your reasoning

Badminton (True or False)

  1. The doubles service court consists of the same area as the singles service court.

  1. In doubles play, a long high serve is the best serve.

  1. Rally point scoring seems to favor a more highly skilled player.

  1. To get within reach of the bird, good footwork requires shuffling or sliding your feet into a position to hit.

1. For each part, select the best underlined option, then explain why it is the best. If you want to keep a hot beverage hot as long as possible, should you:

a. Store it in a bottle that is tall and thin, or one that is short and wide? (The short and wide one has a bigger surface area, but they both have the same volume)

b. Wrap the bottle with a one centimeter thick sheet of wool or a two centimeter thick sheet of wool?

c. Increase the temperature of the room the bottle is in, or decrease the temperature of the room the bottle is in?

Equations:

v = λ f (velocity = wavelength * frequency)

Rate of cooling = A ΔT (cooling rate = inverse of resistance * Area * Temperature difference)

Radioactive waste can remain dangerous for a hundred thousand years. GE Hitachi created a new power plant that can use radioactive waste and reduce the storage requirements to 300 years. In GEH’s view, what is generally considered to be “nuclear waste” these days is not really waste at all. Light Water Reactor (LWR) used nuclear fuel is composed of 95 percent uranium, 1 percent transuranics, and 4 percent fission products. Many of these transuranic isotopes have long half-lives, which can create long-term engineering challenges for geologic disposal. By using electro-metallurgical separations, PRISM is designed to perform the recycling of the 96 percent of the fissionable material (uranium and transuranics) remaining in used nuclear fuel.

Think about our current and possible future uses of nuclear power. In your initial post, please discuss the following questions:

What do you see as potential problems?

What do you see as the dangers today and in the future?

If you were in the position to make decisions about the output of nuclear power production, what would you do and why?

Suppose you throw a ball into the air. Do you think it takes longer to reach its maximum height or to fall back to earth from its maximum height? We will solve the problem in this project, but before getting started, think about that situation and make a guess based on your physical intuition. 1. A ball with mass m is projected vertically upward from the earth’s surface with a positive initial velocity v0. We assume the forces acting on the ball are the force of gravity and a retarding force of air resistance with direction opposite to the direction of motion and with magnitude p|v(t)|, where p is a positive constant and v(t) is the velocity of the ball at time t. In both the ascent and the descent, the total force acting on the ball is pv mg. (During ascent, v(t) is positive and the resistance acts downward; during descent, v(t) is negative and the resistance acts upward.) So, by Newton’s Second Law, the equation of motion is mv0 = pv mg Solve this di↵erential equation to show that the velocity is v(t) = ✓ v0 + mg p ◆ ept/m mg p 2. Show that the height of the ball, until it hits the ground, is y(t) = ✓ v0 + mg p ◆ m p ⇣ 1 ept/m⌘ mgt p 3. Let t1 be the time that the ball takes to reach its maximum height. Show that t1 = m p ln ✓mg + pv0 mg ◆ Find this time for a ball with mass 1 kg and initial velocity 20 m/s. Assume the air resistance is 1 10 of the speed. 1 4. Let t2 be the time at which the ball falls back to earth. For the particular ball in Problem 3, estimate t2 by using a graph of the height function y(t). Which is faster, going up or coming down? 5. In general, it’s not east to find t2 because it’s impossible to solve the equation y(t)=0 explicitly. We can, however, use an indirect method to determine whether ascent or descent is faster: We determine whether y(2t1) is positive or negative. Show that y(2t1) = m2g p2 ✓ x 1 x 2 ln x ◆ where x = ept1/m. Then show that x > 1 and the function f(x) = x 1 x 2 ln x is increasing for x > 1. Use this result to decide whether y(2t1) is positive or negative. What can you conclude? Is ascent or descent faster?

A thin, cylindrical rod ℓ = 27.0 cm long with a mass m = 1.20 kg has a ball of diameter d = 10.00 cm and mass M = 2.00 kg attached to one end. The arrangement is originally vertical and stationary, with the ball at the top as shown in the figure below. The combination is free to pivot about the bottom end of the rod after being given a slight nudge.

I am looking for the; How does it compare with the speed had the ball fallen freely through the same distance of 32.0 cm?

As well as the V swing and the V fall. (There is the exact question of this on chegg already posted if needing to see the other parts of the question in order to get this answer)
