The length and width of a rectangular room are measured to be 3.92 ± 0.0035 m and 3.15 ± 0.0055 m. in this problem you can approximate the error on a product or quotient of quantities by the sum of the percent error on each quantity. a.) calculate the floor area of the room in square meters b.) calculate the uncertainty in this measurement in square meters.

An object starts from rest at point f and speeds up continuously as it moves around an oval. a. choose a point about 1/8 th of the way around the oval from point f, and label it point g. draw a vector to represent the velocity of the object at point g. b. determine the change in velocity vector   between points f and g.

Clothing made of several thin layers of fabric with trapped air in between, often called ski clothing, is commonly used in cold climates because it is light, fashionable, and a very effective thermal insulator. so it is no surprise that such clothing has largely replaced thickand heavy old-fashioned coats. (a) consider a jacket made of five layers of 0.1-mm-thick synthetic fabric (k = 0.13 w/m·°c) with 1.5-mm-thick air space (k = 0.026 w/m·°c) between the layers. assuming the inner surface temperature of the jacket to be 28°c and the surface area to be 1.25 m2, determine the rate of heat loss through the jacket when the temperature of the outdoors is 0°c and the heat transfer coefficient at the outer surface is 25 w/m2·°c. (b) what would your response be if the jacket is made of a single layer of 0.5-mm-thick synthetic fabric? what should be the thickness of a wool fabric (k = 0.035 w/m·°c) if the person is to achieve the same level of thermal comfort wearing a thick wool coat instead of a five-layer ski jacket?

Abicycle slows down when the rider applies the brakes. what type of energy transformation is involved in this example? a. kinetic energy into heat energy b. heat energy into potential energy c. potential energy into kinetic energy d. kinetic energy into mechanical energy
