A projectile is launched on a planet other than Earth at a velocity of 44.8 m/s 30.0o above the horizontal. The ground slopes down in the direction of travel, so the projectile impacts the ground 47.3 m below the level from which it was launched. If the horizontal distance it travels is 376 m, what is the magnitude of the acceleration of gravity near the surface of the alien planet?

We are in calm financial markets and you think they will remain as such, but your client is risk averse. You are recommending a particular technology company which you think has a great near-term outlook. Your client wants to dabble in options but also wants to own the underlying stock and respects your outlook. What would you recommend they do?

Suppose chipotle has a perfect substitutes and production function, McDonald's has a near perfect complements production function, and Pizza Hut has a Cobb-Douglas production function. The town passes a law to increase the minimum wage in the city to $15. Which one of these firms will see a large substitution out of labor (as percent of initial labor)? Explain your answer

1. Examine the financial ratios, stock valuation and news about
Amazon. Do you see the firm’s share price rising/decreasing in the
near-, intermediate- and long-term? Do you believe the firm has a
stable future of sustainable growth, currently stagnant, or is
heading for financial failure? Why?
2. Would you invest in Amazon? Why or why not?

While it is difficult to identify a real-world market that meets the textbook definition of perfect competition, there are many real-world markets in which price-taking behavior is observed and in those cases the model is quite valid. Give an example of a near-perfectly competitive firm. If you were managing that firm, how would you prepare for the Post-Pandemic World?

A neutron star has a mass of 3.35 × 1030 kg (about the mass of our sun) and a radius of 6.09 × 103 m. Suppose an object falls from rest near the surface of such a star. How fast would it be moving after it had fallen a distance of 0.013 m? (Assume that the gravitational force is constant over the distance of the fall, and that the star is not rotating.)
