Chinook salmon are able to move through water especially fast by jumping out of the water periodically. this behavior is called porpoising. suppose a salmon swimming in still water jumps out of the water with velocity 6.65 m/s at 48.1â° above the horizontal, sails through the air a distance l before returning to the water, and then swims the same distance l underwater in a straight, horizontal line with velocity 3.79 m/s before jumping out again. (a) determine the average velocity of the fish for the entire process of jumping and swimming underwater. incorrect: your answer is incorrect. your response differs from the correct answer by more than 10%. double check your calculations. m/s (b) consider the time interval required to travel the entire distance of 2l. by what percentage is this time interval reduced by the jumping/swimming process compared with simply swimming underwater at 3.79 m/s?

Two resistors r1 and r2 may be connected either in series or parallel across an ideal battery with emf ε. we desire the rate of energy dissipation of the parallel combination to be 8.75 times that of the series combination. if r1 = 105 ω, what are the (a) smaller and (b) larger of the two values of r2 that result in that dissipation rate?
