Lucy boards a crowded bus as it sits in the station. There are no available seats, so Lucy stands in the center aisle next to a support pole. As the bus starts moving forward and picks up speed, Lucy holds the pole tightly to avoid falling over backward. While the bus is speeding up, what is the direction of the total force (if any) on Lucy?

Is it forward? baclwards? or the total force is zero?

As the bus drives down a straight road at a constant speed, Lucy has no trouble keeping her balance. During this time, what is the direction of the total force (if any) on Lucy?

Is it forward? baclwards? or the total force is zero?

The bus comes to a sudden stop at a red light, and Lucy grips the pole tightly to avoid falling over forward. During this time, what is the direction of the total force (if any) on Lucy?

Is it forward? baclwards? or the total force is zero?

Suppose that two tanks, 1 and 2, each with a large opening at the top, contain different liquids. a small hole is made in the side of each tank at the same depth 1.57 m below the liquid surface, but the hole in tank 2 has 2.49 times the cross-sectional area of the hole in tank 1. (a) what is the ratio ρ1/ρ2 of the densities of the liquids if the mass flow rate is the same for the two holes? (b) what is the ratio rv1/rv2 of the volume flow rates from the two tanks? (c) at one instant, the liquid in tank 1 is 14.9 cm above the hole. if the tanks are to have equal volume flow rates, what height above the hole must the liquid in tank 2 be just then?
