Resistance to the motion of an automobile consists of road friction, which is almost independent of speed, and air drag, which is proportional to speed-squared. For a certain car with a weight of 12000 N, the total resistant force F is given by F = 300 + 1.8v2, with F in newtons and v in meters per second. Calculate the power (in horsepower) required to accelerate the car at 0.90 m/s2 when the speed is 84 km/h.

Chemical energy is a form of energy. a. heat b. kinetic c. potential d. electromagnetic

Cyclotrons are widely used in nuclear medicine for producing short-lived radioactive isotopes. these cyclotrons typically accelerate h- (the hydride ion, which has one proton and two electrons) to an energy of 5 mev to 20 mev. this ion has a mass very close to that of a proton because the electron mass is negligible—about 1 2000 of the proton’s mass. a typical magnetic field in such cyclotrons is 1.9 t. (a) what is the speed of a 5.0-mev h-? (b) if the h- has energy 5.0 mev and b = 1.9 t, what is the radius of this ion’s circular orbit?

When barack obama was running for president, at a campaign stop he tried to bowl, something he isn't very good at. the media loved it because he threw a gutter ball while they were all watching. this is an example of:
