The following problems are based on two examples from the text. Each
set of four problems is designed to help you make connections that
enhance your understanding of physics and to build your confidence
in solving problems that differ from ones you've seen before. The first
problem in each set is essentially the example problem but with differ-
ent numbers. The second problem presents the same scenario as the
example but asks a different question. The third and fourth problen
repeat this pattern but with entirely different scenarios.
