When a driver brakes an automobile, friction between the brake disks and the brake pads converts part of the car's kinetic energy to internal energy. If
a 1500 kg automobile traveling at 32 m/s comes to a halt after its brakes
are applied, how much can the temperature rise in each of the four 3.5
kg steel brake disks? Assume the disks are made of iron (c = 448 J/kg•°C)
and that all of the kinetic energy is distributed in equal parts to the internal
energy of the brakes.

Acave rescue team lifts an injured spelunker directly upward and out of a sinkhole by means of a motor-driven cable. the lift is performed in three stages, each requiring a vertical distance of 11.0 m: (a) the initially stationary spelunker is accelerated to a speed of 4.80 m/s; (b) he is then lifted at the constant speed of 4.80 m/s; (c) finally he is decelerated to zero speed. how much work is done on the 78.0 kg rescue by the force lifting him during each stage

The sun’s mass is 2.0×10^ 30 kg, its radius is 7.0×10 5 km, and it has a rotational period of approximately 28 days. if the sun should collapse into a white dwarf of radius 3.5×10 3 km, what would its period be if no mass were ejected and a sphere of uniform density can model the sun both before and after?
