A uniform electric field is directed out of the page within a circular region of radius R = 2.50 cm. The magnitude of the electric field is given by E = (3.50 × 10-3 V/m•s)t, where t is in seconds. What is the magnitude of the magnetic field that is induced at radial distances (a)1.50 cm and (b)6.50 cm?

You dive straight down into a pool of water. You hit the water with a speed of 5.0 m/s , and your mass is 70 kg.
Assuming a drag force of the form FDFD = (−1.50×104 kg/s )v, how long does it take you to reach 2% of your original speed? (Ignore any effects of buoyancy.)

A white billiard ball with mass mw = 1.33 kg is moving directly to the right with a speed of v = 2.96 m/s and collides elastically with a black billiard ball with the same mass mb = 1.33 kg that is initially at rest. The two collide elastically and the white ball ends up moving at an angle above the horizontal of ?w = 29

A gas expands from point A to B. The expansion consists of two stages.
Stage 1) The gas expands at constant pressure from 15 to 39 litres.
Stage 2) The gas expands from 31 litres to 82 litres with a pressure drop according to the equation; P = 100 - 0.8 V kPa
Calculate the work done on the gas.
