Agust of wind blows an apple from a tree. as the apple falls, the gravitational force on the apple is 2.25n downward and the force of the wind on the apple is 1.05n to the right. find the magnitude and the direction of the net force on the apple.

Sarah and michelle work at a tech company that designs exercise apps. sarah tells michelle she has heard that james, their supervisor, interviewed with a competitor and may be leaving the company, which would open up a management position. what kind of power is sarah exerting?

The us government wants to allocate billions of dollars in the next 10 years to assure our future energy security. the funds will be spread among a variety of possible energy resources. where do you think the government should put the greatest support: solar energy, wind energy, clean coal, oil exploration, gas exploration, or a combination of sources? are there other efforts that should be explored? support your position with cited information for both questions.

Follow these directions and answer the questions. 1. set up the ripple tank as in previous investigations. 2. bend the rubber tube to form a "concave mirror" and place in the ripple tank. the water level must be below the top of the hose. 3. generate a few straight pulses with the dowel and observe the reflected waves. do the waves focus (come together) upon reflection? can you locate the place where the waves meet? 4. touch the water surface where the waves converged. what happens to the reflected wave? 5. move your finger twice that distance from the hose (2f = c of c, center of the curvature) and touch the water again. does the image (the reflected wave) appear in the same location (c of c)? you may have to experiment before you find the exact location. sometimes it is hard to visualize with the ripple tank because the waves move so quickly. likewise, it is impossible to "see" light waves because they have such small wavelengths and move at the speed of light. however, both are examples of transverse waves and behave in the same way when a parallel wave fronts hit a curved surface.
