In early test flights for a space shuttle using a "glider" (mass of 1000kg including pilot), it was noted that after a horizontal launch at 500 km/h at a height of 3500m, the glider eventually landed at a speed of 200 km/h. a) What would its landing speed have been in the absence of air resistance?b) What was the average force of air resistance exerted on it if it came in at a constant glide of 10 degrees to the Earth?

The force acting on a beam was measured under the same operating conditions and a sample of 5 data points was collected. this process was repeated by 3 observers. the pooled standard deviations of these 3 data sets was 1.21. determine the true mean force using all pooled data (with a 95% probability). the result should look like this: true mean = mean +/- margin of error

When you jump from an elevated position you usually bend your knees upon reaching the ground. by doing this, you make the time of the impact about 10 times as great as for a stiff-legged landing. in this way the average force your body experiences is a) less than 1/10 as great. b) more than 1/10 as great. c) about 1/10 as great.d) about 10 times as great.
