Consider a system of a cliff diver and the Earth. The gravitational potential energy of the system decreases by 24,000 J as the diver drops to the water from a height of 33.0 m. Determine her weight in newtons.

The diagram shows a series of volcanic island and a hot spot determine the direction of movement of the tectonic plate that for the island

Apair of 10μf capacitors in a high-power laser are charged to 1.7 kv. a. what charge is stored in each capacitor? b. how much energy is stored in each capacitor?

Two manned satellites approaching one another at a relative speed of 0.550 m/s intend to dock. the first has a mass of 2.50 ✕ 103 kg, and the second a mass of 7.50 ✕ 103 kg. assume that the positive direction is directed from the second satellite towards the first satellite. (a) calculate the final velocity after docking, in the frame of reference in which the first satellite was originally at rest.(b) what is the loss of kinetic energy in this inelastic collision? (c) repeat both parts, in the frame of reference in which the second satellite was originally at rest. final velocity(d) loss of kinetic energy = ?
