2) When construction of the Tillery Hydroelectric Plant was begun in 1926, it was realized thatthe reservoir resulting from the construction of the dam would flood the Swift Island Bridgeacross the Pee Dee River, and led to the construction of the present Swift Island Bridge. TheUS Army Air Corp decided to test aerial bombardment against the old bridge using theKeystone LB-5 light bomber. Assume an LB-5 approaches the bridge at a 90° angle to thespan at 40 m/, and releases its bomb from an altitude of 1 800 m. Ignoring air resistance andcrosswinds,How far from the bridge must the bomb be released to hit the bridge on the centerline?b. How long does it take the bomb to hit the bridge after being released?What is the terminal velocity of the bomb?a.с.

We have to use equation of motion to resolve the above problem. Equation of motion are given by:…

The United States has a lot of federally owned land. Unfortunately, uncontrolled natural forest fires destroy large areas in the western US every summer. In 2002, about 1,000,000 acres of standing timber in national forests were consumed. Some consideration is being given to improved management practices that could produce electric power from residual forest thinning. Estimate the lost energy content of burned US forests during 2002. Assuming the US average electricity demand is about 300,000 MWe, how much forested land would be needed to produce all the country's power? Is this a sustainable alternative? How would you manage the forest lands needed? A few facts to consider: • The total forested area on US federal lands in the lower 48 states is about 600 million acres with a standing stock density of about 100 dry metric tonnes of wood per acre, • ● Woody plants and trees capture solar energy via photosynthesis at an average rate of about 0.8 W/m2 which corresponds to producing about…
The settling rate of particulates in the air follows Stokes' law. If particulates of diameter of 10 nm emitted in the atmosphere are found to settle out after 2 days, how long would it take particulates of the same material with a diameter of 5 nm to settle out if they are emitted from the same source?
Long-term space missions require reclamation of the oxygen in the carbon dioxide exhaled by the crew. In one method of reclamation, 1.00 mol of carbon dioxide produces 1.00 mol of oxygen, with 1.00 mol of methane as a by-product. The methane is stored in a tank under pressure and is available to control the attitude of the spacecraft by controlled venting. A single astronaut exhales 1,08 kg of carbon dioxide each day. If the methane generated in the recycling of three astronauts' respiration during one week of flight is stored in an originally empty 165-L tank at -45.0°C, what is the final pressure in the tank?

(e) The Sun has a surface temperature of 5770 K, a radius of 6.96 × 10° km, an average distance from Earth of 1.496 x ix 10* km, and radiates e/m radiation into space isotropically. Earth is a sphere with a radius of 6378 km, and on average absorbs 30 percent of the sunlight that shines on it, with the rest reflected back into space. Both the Sun and Earth are opaque to e/m radiation of all wavelengths, so intensity I = oT“, where o is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant and T is Kelvin temperature. Calculate the temperature (in Kelvins) of Earth.
The following is a practice question for an upcoming test: At a resting pulse rate of 77 beats per minute, the human heart typically pumps about 73 mL of blood per beat. Blood has a density of 1060 kg/m3. Circulating all of the blood in the body through the heart takes about 1 min for a person at rest. On average, what mass of blood does the heart pump with each heart beat in kg? mass per heart beat:
Janice is grilling a steak for her July 4th barbecue dinner. The steak initially weighs 300 grams and is 25 mm thick. After grilling it for a while, she considers the steak done, and measures it again: it now weighs 215 grams, and is 15 mm thick. For both the cooked and uncooked steak, she uses the thumb-test to determine the done-ness, i.e. she uses her thumb (area ~5cm2) to push down with a force of 5 N. The uncooked steak compresses by 7 mm, and the cooked steak by 2 mm. The change in elasticity of the steak on cooking is due partly to the loss of water volume (so that existing bonds get closer together) and partly to the creation of new bonds. Assume all of the difference in raw vs. cooked steak thickness is due to water loss that makes it thinner (25 mm thick in the uncooked steak, versus 15 mm thick in the cooked steak), and that the other dimensions of the steak (length and width) have not changed. By what percentage has the steak's volume decreased from the original value?…
When working on a PHYS 1510 weekly assignment, a student decided to get a medium double double coffee from Tim Hortons (a coffee made with two creams and two sugars). After drinking it, the student looked up the nutritional value of the drink, and was shocked to find it was listed as 230.0 kcal (230.0 nutritional calories). After drinking the coffee, they weighed 87.88 kg. To work off all the calories, the student decides to climb the stairs in their building. How many floors do they need to climb to burn off the entire drink? (do not include units) Assume all floors are 3.00 m apart from each other. Assume all nutritional energy is fully converted to potential energy. 1 kcal = 4184 J
