An astronaut in space cannot use a scale or balance to weigh objects because there is no gravity. But she does have devices to measure distance and time accurately. She knows her own mass is 78.4 kg , but she is unsure of the mass of a large gas canister in the airless rocket. When this canister is approaching her at 3.60 m/s , she pushes against it, which slows it down to 1.20 m/s (but does not reverse it) and gives her a speed of 2.60 m/s .What is the mass of this canister?

1. the materials manager for a billiard ball maker must periodically place orders for resin, one of the raw materials used in producing billiard balls. she knows that manufacturing uses resin at a rate of 50 kilograms each day, and that it costs $.04 per day to carry a kilogram of resin in inventory. she also knows that the order costs for resin are $100 per order, and that the lead time for delivery is four (4) days.2. at what point should resin be reordered? a. 0 kilograms remainingb. 50 kilograms remainingc. 200 kilograms remainingd. 400 kilograms remaininge. 500 kilograms remaining3. if order size was 1,000 kilograms of resin, what would be the length of an order cycle? a. 0.05 daysb. 4 daysc. 16 daysd. 20 dayse. 50 days4. if the order size was 1,000 kilograms of resin, what would be the average inventory level? a. 50 kilogramsb. 200 kilogramsc. 500 kilogramsd. 800 kilogramse. 1,000 kilograms5. if the order size was 1,000 kilograms of resin, what would be the daily total inventory costs, excluding the cost of the resin? a. $5b. $10c. $20d. $25e. $40

An alpha particle with kinetic energy 12.5 mev makes a collision with lead nucleus, but it is not "aimed" at the center of the lead nucleus, and has an initial nonzero angular momentum (with respect to the stationary lead nucleus) of magnitude l = p0 b, where p0 is the magnitude of the initial momentum of the alpha particle and b=1.40×10−12 m. (assume that the lead nucleus remains stationary and that it may be treated as a point charge. the atomic number of lead is 82. the alpha particle is a helium nucleus, with atomic number 2.) what is the distance of closest approach?
