Basilisk lizards can run across the top of a water surface (see the figure). with each step, a lizard first slaps its foot against the water and then pushes it down into the water rapidly enough to form an air cavity around the top of the foot. to avoid having to pull the foot back up against water drag in order to complete the step, the lizard withdraws the foot before the water can flow into the air cavity. if the lizard is not to sink, the average upward impulse on the lizard during this full action of slap, downward push, and withdrawal must match the downward impulse due to the gravitational force. suppose the mass of a basilisk lizard is 93.7 g, the mass of each foot is 3.37 g, the speed of a foot as it slaps the water is 1.15 m/s, and the time for a single step is 0.531 as. (a) what is the magnitude of the impulse on the lizard during the slap

Suppose a diode consists of a cylindrical cathode with a radius of 6.200×10^−2 cm , mounted coaxially within a cylindrical anode with a radius of 0.5580 cm . the potential difference between the anode and cathode is 260 v . an electron leaves the surface of the cathode with zero initial speed (v initial=0). find its speed vfinal when it strikes the anode.

With the simplified model of the eye, what corrective lens (specified by focal length as measured in air) would be needed to enable a person underwater to focus an infinitely distant object? (be careful-the focal length of a lens underwater is not the same as in air! assume that the corrective lens has a refractive index of 1.62 and that the lens is used in eyeglasses, not goggles, so there is water on both sides of the lens. assume that the eyeglasses are 1.90
