The hammer throw is a track-and-field event in which a 7.3 kg ball (the “hammer”), starting from rest, is whirled around in a circle sev- eral times and released. it then moves upward on the familiar curving path of projectile motion. in one throw, the hammer is given a speed of 29 m/s. for comparison, a .22 caliber bullet has a mass of 2.6 g and, start- ing from rest, exits the barrel of a gun at a speed of 410 m/s. determine the work done to launch the motion of (a) the hammer and (b) the bullet.

Astudent is performing an experiment comparing sound and light waves. the student gathers the following data. what conclusion does the student most likely make based on this data? light waves always travel the same speed; however, the speed of sound is determined by the medium that it travels through. all sound waves always have the same energy, so the temperature of the medium does not affect wave speed. light needs to vibrate particles, so it travels fastest in tightly packed solids, while sound does not need a medium, so it travels fastest in a gas. tightly packed particles in solids slow down the light waves; however, sound waves make particles bounce into each other, so they travel faster in solids.
