Wind blowing across a large body of water imparts momentum to the surface of the water. Assume that the velocity of the water on the surface of, for example Galveston Bay, is equal to 0.03 U where U is the wind velocity. Assuming that the bay has a mean depth of 2 meters, that the viscosity of the entire water column is 10^-2 g/cm-s, and that in the absence of any wind the water is stagnant. Requried:
Derive an equation for the velocity of water in the bay as a function of depth.

Ablock of mass m = 2.5 kg is attached to a spring with spring constant k = 740 n/m. it is initially at rest on an inclined plane that is at an angle of theta= 26 with respect to the horizontal, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the plane is uk = 0.17. in the initial position, where the spring is compressed by a distance of d = 0.16 m, the mass is at its lowest position and the spring is compressed the maximum amount. take the initial gravitational energy of the block as zero. the block's initial mechanical energy is 9.472 j. b. if the spring pushes the block up the incline, what distance l in meters will the block travel before coming to rest? the spring remains attached to both the block and the fixed wall throughout its motion.
