At the bow of a ship on a stormy sea, a crewman conducts an experiment by standing on a bathroom scale. in calm waters, the scale reads 182lbs. during the storm, the crewman finds a max reading of 225lbs and a minimum reading of 138lbs a. find the max upward acceleration b. find the max downward acceleration

Imagine you are riding on a yacht in the ocean and traveling at 20 mph. you then hit a golf ball at 100 mph from the deck of the yacht. you see the ball move away from you at 100mph, while a person standing on a near by beach would observe your golf ball traveling at 120 mph (20 mph + 100 mph). now imagine you are aboard the hermes spacecraft traveling at 0.1c (1/10 the speed of light) past mars and shine a laser from the front of the ship. you would see the light traveling at c (the speed of light) away from your ship. according to einstein’s special relativity, how fast will a person on mars observe the light to be traveling? a) 0.1c (1/10 the speed of light) b) c (the speed of light) c)1.1c (c+0.1c)

Awater-filled u-tube manometer is used to measure the pressure inside a tank that contains air. the water level in the u-tube on the side that connects to the tank is 5 ft above the base of the tank. the water level in the other side of the u-tube (which is open to the atmosphere) is 2 ft above the base. determine the pressure within the tank.

The uniform slender bar rests on a smooth horizon- tal surface when a force f is applied normal to the bar at point a. point a is observed to have an initial acceleration aa of 20 m/s2, and the bar has a corre- sponding angular acceleration of 18 rad /s2. deter- mine the distance b.
