While at the county fair, you decide to ride the ferris wheel. having eaten too many candy apples and elephant ears, you find the motion somewhat unpleasant. to take your mind off your stomach, you wonder about the motion of the ride. you estimate the radius of the big wheel to be 16 m , and you use your watch to find that each loop around takes 29 s. what is the speed?

A23 kg log of wood begins from rest, 300 m up a sluice (a water track used to transport logs, think of it as an inclined plane with negligible friction) inclined at 20° to the horizontal. after it reaches the flat waterway at the bottom it collides elastically with a 100 kg block of wood initially at rest near the base of the incline. (a) how long does it take the 23 kg log to travel down the incline? (b) what is the speed of the 23 kg log at the bottom of the incline? (c) what are the velocities of both blocks of wood after the collision? (d) what is the total kinetic energy before the collision? (e) what is the kinetic energy of the 23 kg log after the collision? (f) what is the kinetic energy of the 100 kg block of wood after the collision? (g) what is the total kinetic energy after the collision? (h) compare the total initial and total final kinetic energies. is this consistent with what you would expect for elastic collisions? explain!

Oxygen and hydrogen gas are at the same temperature t.what is the ratio of kinetic energies of oxygen molecule and hydrogen molecule if oxygen is 16 times heavier than hydrogen.

The slope of a velocity time graph over any interval of time gives the during that interval
