Nico uses wire to connect a battery, a lightbulb, and a switch, but the bulb does not light up. which might explain this problem? a. the battery has too much power. b. the wires are bent. c. the circuit is closed. d. the switch is open.

The astronauts on the space shuttle flights experienced an acceleration of 29 m/s2 (about 3 "g's") during lift-off. what upward force must the astronaut's seat apply to the astronaut in order to cause this acceleration? assume the astronaut's mass is 70 kg, and compute this force when the acceleration is near the earth's surface so their weight equals latex: mg m g .

Friction removes energy from objects in motion. which statement best describes how this works? a) friction transforms ke into thermal energy b) friction transfers thermal energy to ke c) friction transforms te into pe d) friction transforms pe into ke e) friction transfers ke into pe

The great sandini is a 60.0-kg circus performer who is shot from a cannon (actually a spring gun). you don’t find many men of his caliber, so you him design a new gun. this new gun has a very large spring with a very small mass and a force constant of 1100 n/m that he will compress with a force of 4400 n. the inside of the gun barrel is coated with teflon, so the average friction force will be only 40.0 n during the 4.00 m he moves in the barrel. at what speed will he emerge from the end of the barrel, 2.50 m above his initial rest position?
