A group of students is investigating whether the smoothness of a surface affects the force of friction. Each student pushes a book on two different surfaces. One surface is ice and the other is concrete. The distance traveled by the book on each surface is shown.
Experimental Observations
Student 1 Student 2 Student 3 Student 4
Distance traveled by book on ice 23 cm 21 cm 24 cm 22 cm
Distance traveled by book on concrete 15 cm 18 cm 16 cm 17 cm
Based on the table, which conclusion is correct about the average distance traveled?
A. It is less on concrete.
B. It is greater on concrete.
C. It is less when the book is pushed harder.
D. It is independent of the type of surface.

Atwo-stage air compressor operates at steady state, compression 10m^3/min of air from 100 kpa and 300k to 1200 kpa. an intercooler between the two stages cools the air to 300k at a constant pressure of 350 kpa. the compression processes are isentropic. a) calculate the power required to run the compressor, in kw b) compare the result to the power required for isentropic compression from the same inlet state to the same final pressure.

The dipole moment of the water molecule (h2o) is 6.17x10^-30 c.m. consider a water molecule located at the origin whose dipole moment p points in the +x-direction. a chlorine ion ( of charge-1.60x10^-19c , is located at x=3.00x10^-9m . assume that is much larger than the separation d between the charges in the dipole, so that the approximate expression for the electric field along the dipole axis can be used. a) find the magnitude of the electric force that the water molecule exerts on the chlorine ion. b) what is the direction of the electric force. -x-direction or +x-direction c) is this force attractive or repulsive?
