Many adventures like to go rafting on the Colorado River through Grand Canyon National Park. There are many locations where the river becomes more narrow, both the distance between the canyon walls as well as the depth changes due to debris like boulders on the bottom of the river; this leads to changes in the water speed. In the park, the Colorado River has an average width of 100m and an average depth of 8m, and an average speed of 3 m/s. At the Lava Falls Rapids, the river has an average width of about 25m and an average depth of about 15m. What is the approximate speed of the water in this location

Uranium has two naturally occurring isotopes. 238u has a natural abundance of 99.3% and 235u has an abundance of 0.7%. it is the rarer 235u that is needed for nuclear reactors. the isotopes are separated by forming uranium hexafluoride uf6, which is a gas, then allowing it to diffuse through a series of porous membranes. 235uf6 has a slightly larger rms speed than 238uf6 and diffuses slightly faster. many repetitions of this procedure gradually separate the two isotopes. what is the ratio of the rms speed of 235uf6 to that of 238uf6? express your answer to five significant figures.
