1. You are setting up for a pool party that has a 2.5 m high slide that launches swimmers into the pool. To make it more exciting, you decide to string a steamer across the pool so that the swimmers just clear it at their maximum height after leaving the slide. The end of the slide is 0.75 m above the ground and is directed 20° above the horizontal. By watching people use the slide, you know the horizontal distance to place the streamer, so you only need to determine the maximum height. You are also curious how fast the swimmers are going when they enter the pool. In your estimates, you can assume that the swimmer starts at rest at the top of the slide and ignore friction on the slide and air resistance.

5.) A glass tubing consists of 5 vertical stems which are 500 mm apart connected to a single horizontal tube. The tube is filled with water to a depth of 500 mm in the vertical stems. How fast should it be rotated about and axis through the middle stem to just zero the depth of water in that stem?

A tank of water has a trap door inclined at an angle to the horizontal, as shown in Figure Q4. The door is square, with a length and width of L, and the hinge of the door is a depth ho below the surface. The water is stationary and has a density, p. a) Find the horiztonal force on the door due to static pressure b) Find the vertical force on the door due to static pressure c) Find the moment on the door hinge due to static pressure . d) The weight of the door induces a anti-clockwise moment, Mw, which acts to stop the door from opening. Find the ho such that the static pressure is large enough to open the door M F. TO L bo V

From rest a balloon begins to rise. the Balloon experiences a lift due to a buoyant force of 8000 N. 1. Total massof the balloon is 600kg. Find Acceleration. 2. The balloon rises a distance of 10m and loses a mass of 50 kg after a weight is thrown off. Find the acceleration of the balloon after this weight loss 3. Find the initial velocity of the mass in the vertical direction at the timeof the jump. 4. After falling 10 m, find the mass' final velocity as it comesinto contact with the ground. 5.What is the total time the mass takes to hit the ground? 6. Find the heightof the balloon when the mass hits the ground 7. The mass lands 3 m from the baloon, find the horizontal velocity required to land 3m from the balloon. 8. Since the balloon exeperiences equal forces when the mass is thrown off, what is the horizontal velocity the baloon experiences during this act and how far does the balloon travel when the mass comes into contact with the ground?

4. A curious astronaut took her bathroom scale (a spring scale) and a beam scale (compares masses) to the moon. On Earth, she determined that her mass was 124 Ibm. The gravitational acceleration on the moon is a = 5.3 ft/s?.When she reaches the moon: a.) What will she weigh on the spring scale? b.) What will the beam scale indicate for her mass?
9. Niagara Falls is about 50 m high. a. What is the temperature rise in kelvins of the water from just before it goes over the cliff to just after it hits the rocks at the bottom of the falls, assuming negligible air resistance during the fall and that the water doesn't rebound but just splats onto a rock? It is helpful (but not essential) to consider a 1 g drop of water. b. In the Niagara Falls hydroelectric generating plant, the energy of falling water is converted into electricity. Assuming that the energy conversion is highly efficient, approximately how much energy is obtained from one kilogram of falling water? Approximately how many kilograms of water must go through the generators every second to produce a megawatt of power (1 x 106 W)?
