2. (15 points) A dust speck (m = 1 ng) travels horizon- tally at speed u until it hits an ice cube of mass M = 1g
that is sitting at rest on a horizontal frictionless surface.
Having absorbed the dust speck, the ice cube proceeds
to travel horizontally with speed v = 3 ms-1.
What was the initial speed, u, of the dust speck?

Hints: (1) 1 ng = 10-9g. (2) See if you can figure out
why Newton would have gotten this question wrong.
What is the relativistic momentum? Do you need it for
the ice cube? How about the speck of dust?
U

The frequency of vibrations of a vibrating violin string is given by f = 1 2l t Ī where l is the length of the string, t is its tension, and Ī is its linear density.† (a) find the rate of change of the frequency with respect to the following. (i) the length (when t and Ī are constant) (ii) the tension (when l and Ī are constant) (iii) the linear density (when l and t are constant) (b) the pitch of a note (how high or low the note sounds) is determined by the frequency f. (the higher the frequency, the higher the pitch.) use the signs of the derivatives in part (a) to determine what happens to the pitch of a note for the following. (i) when the effective length of a string is decreased by placing a finger on the string so a shorter portion of the string vibrates df dl 0 and l is ⇒ f is ⇒ (ii) when the tension is increased by turning a tuning peg df dt 0 and t is ⇒ f is ⇒ (iii) when the linear density is increased by switching to another string df dĪ 0 and Ī is ⇒ f is ⇒

Consider a double atwood machine constructed as follows: a mass 4m is suspended from a string that passes over a massless pulley on frictionless bearings. the other end of this string supports a second similar pulley, over which passes a second string supporting a mass of 3m at one end and m at the other. using two suitable generalized coordinates, set up the lagrangian and use the lagrange equations to find the acceleration of the mass 4m when the system is released. explain why the top pulley rotates even though it carries equal weights on each side.

Use henry's law and the solubilities given below to calculate the total volume of nitrogen and oxygen gas that should bubble out of 1.7 l of water upon warming from 25 ˚c to 50 ˚c. assume that the water is initially saturated with nitrogen and oxygen gas at 25 ˚c and a total pressure of 1.0 atm. assume that the gas bubbles out at a temperature of 50 ˚c. the solubility of oxygen gas at 50 ˚c is 27.8 mg/l at an oxygen pressure of 1.00 atm. the solubility of nitrogen gas at 50 ˚c is 14.6 mg/l at a nitrogen pressure of 1.00 atm. assume that the air above the water contains an oxygen partial pressure of 0.21 atm and a nitrogen partial pressure of 0.78 atm.
