Assume that the earth is a uniform sphere and that its path around the sun is circular.

(a) calculate the kinetic energy that the earth has because of its rotation about its own axis. for comparison, the total energy used in the united states in one year is about 9.33 multiplied by 109 j.

(b) calculate the kinetic energy that the earth has because of its motion around the sun.

1. consider the case in which air fills air shocks on a truck trailer. the pressure in the shocks is 2 mpa. the temperature is 300 k. the diameter of the shock piston is 10 cm and the initial length of the cylindrical cavity containing the compressed air is 40 cm. a. the truck is gradually loaded over a period of a day in a static setting. the temperature is held constant for the atmosphere and thus for the gas shock. calculate the compressibility of the air in the shock for this condition when the truck is initially being loaded. b. if the shocks were loaded in a dynamic setting by driving over bumps, what would be the compressibility? state your assumption. c. what is the initial load on the shock if the shock is in an atmospheric 100 kpa? d. if the shock is compressed using the process described in part a, and the air shock compressed air cavity length decreases to 20 cm, what is the additional load applied to the shock?

Chameleons catch insects with their tongues, which they can rapidly extend to great lengths. in a typical strike, the chameleon's tongue accelerates at a remarkable 220 m/s2 for 20 ms, then travels at constant speed for another 30 ms.

We will use a video to study faraday’s law of electromagnetic induction by analyzing the induction that occurs due a coil of copper wire sliding along an air track that passes through an external magnetic field. specifically, we will: examine some of the main principles behind faraday’s law. apply lenz’s law to determine the direction of the induced emf. take measurements of the induced emf from the voltmeter as the coil passes into and out of the external magnetic field. use the horizontal scale provided to determine the speed of the coil. calculate the magnetic field induced in the coil as it passes into and out of the external magnetic field.
