Directions: Consider a 2-kg bowling ball sits on top of a building that is 40 meters tall. It falls to the ground. Think about the amounts of potential and kinetic energy the bowling ball has: • as it sits on top of a building that is 40 meters tall.

• as it is half way through a fall off a building that is 40 meters tall and travelling 19.8 meters per second.

• as it is just about to hit the ground from a fall off a building that is 40 meters tall and travelling 28 meters per second.

1. Does the bowling ball have more potential energy or kinetic energy as it sits on top of the building? Why?

2. Does the bowling ball have more potential energy or kinetic energy as it is

3. Does the bowling ball have more potential energy or kinetic energy just before it hits the ground? Why?

4. What is the potential energy of the bowling ball as it sits on top of the building?

5. What is the potential energy of the ball as it is half way through the fall, 20 meters high?

6. What is the kinetic energy of the ball as it is half way through the fall?

7. What is the kinetic energy of the ball just before it hits the ground?

Very large accelerations can injure the body, especially if they last for a considerable length of time. one model used to gauge the likelihood of injury is the severity index ( ), defined as =/ . in the expression, is the duration of the accleration, but is not equal to the acceleration. rather, is a dimensionless constant that = the number of multiples of that the acceleration is equal to.in one set of studies of rear-end collisions, a person's velocity increases by 13.7 km/h with an acceleration of 36.0 m/s2 . let the + direction point in the direction the car is traveling. what is the severity index for the collision?

Air is to be preheated by hot exhaust gases in a cross-flow heat exchanger before it enters the furnace. air enters the heat exchanger at 95 kpa and 20°c at a rate of 0.6 m^3/s. the combustion gases (cp = 1.10 kj/kg°c) enter at 160°c at a rate of 0.95 kg/s and leave at 95°c. determine the rate of heat transfer to the air and its outlet temperature.

The air in an automobile tire with a volume of 2.60 ft3 is at 70°f and 21 psig. determine the amount of air that must be added to raise the pressure to the recommended value of 30 psig. assume the atmospheric pressure to be 14.6 psia and the temperature and the volume to remain constant. the gas constant of air is ru = 53.34ft⋅lbflbm⋅r(1 psia144 lbf/ft2) = 0.3704 psia⋅ft3lbm⋅r the amount of air that must be added to raise the pressure is lbm
