Things that float or sink on water: 1)penny: sinks 2)twig: floats 3)pen cap: floats 4)small leaf: floats 5)rock: sinks 6)paper clip: sinks do you think you would get the same result if these items were dropped into a glass of vegetable oil of water ? ( a scientific or a good explained answer plzzz)

At a certain instant after jumping from the airplane a, a skydiver b is in the position shown and has reached a terminal (constant) speed vb = 52 m/s. the airplane has the same constant speed va = 52 m/s, and after a period of level flight is just beginning to follow the circular path shown of radius ρa = 2330 m. (a) determine the velocity and acceleration of the airplane relative to the skydiver. (b) determine the time rate of change of the speed vr of the airplane and the radius of curvature ρr of its path, both as observed by the nonrotating skydiver.

Steelhead trout migrate up stream to spawn.occasionally they need to leap up small waterfalls to continue their journey. fortunately, steelhead are remarkable jumpers, capable of leaving the water at a speed of 8.0 m/s. a. what is the maximum height a steelhead trout can jump? b.leaving the water at 8.0 m/s, the trout lands on top of the water fall 1.8 m high. how long was it in the air?

The california mussel (mytilus californianus) attaches itself to a rock or other solid surface with a bundle of filaments known as the byssus. imagine that 15.0 j of work is done to stretch the distal end of the byssus. it releases 10.8 j of thermal energy as it relaxes. what is the resilience of the distal end of the byssus?
