Consider two cars A and B. Car A is raised to some height h inside a service station, and car B is speeding down the highway. Describe the potential, kinetic, and total energies of each car. How much work is used to raise A to height h? What happens to the kinetic energy of B if its speed is doubled? Would car A gravitational potential energy because work is done in elevating it?

Two equal groups of seedlings, and equal in height, were selected for an experiment. One group of seedlings was fed Fertilizer A, and the other group with Fertilizer B. The mean heights of the two groups of seedlings, their standard deviations, and sample sizes are listed below. Assume simple random sampling, independence, and normally distributed data. Alpha =0.025.

2. Bri Smith and Joe Sullivan, two kinesiology students at ASU, are considering the possibility of offering swimming lessons to children at the university pool. The pool would charge a fixed rental fee of $1500 for the 8-weeks of lessons as well as an admission and lifeguarding fee of $7 per pupil. Bri and Joe estimate an additional cost of $4 per pupil to hire additional helpers. Bri and Joe plan to charge $65 per student for the 8-week class....

Two skaters stand on friction-less ice. Ricky is more massive than Lucy. Ricky pushes off from Lucy and they move away from each other. Which statement below is most correct? HINT: The total momentum of the system is zero before they push off, so the total momentum after the push must also be zero. Compare the two masses and the first hint statement and think about what this does to the velocities. CHOOSE ONE: A) Ricky and Lucy will have...

A professor at the University of Connecticut finds that two students in his class have identical answers on a test. While he does not have any supporting evidence, he is confident that the two students cheated. The professor schedules an appointment so that he can speak with each student separately. He confronts each student with his allegation and offers each student individually the following: Sign a statement admitting to cheating. If both students sign the statement, each will receive an...

1. Two students are kayaking on the Saint John River. Initially, they are floating directly beside each other chatting and moving with the river current at 1.50 m/s downstream. Student A pushes away from Student B and sees Student B floating away from them at 1.00 m/s in the upstream direction. The combined inertia of Student A and their kayak is 100 kg and the combined inertia of Student B and their kayak is 120 kg. Assume that there is...
