The 2-kg collar is attached to a spring that has an un-stretched length of 3.0 m. If the collar is drawn to point B and releases from rest, what is the speed when it arrives at point A. Note that k = 3.0 N/m and neglect friction.

Assuming weightless pulleys and 100% efficiency, what is the minimum input force required to lift a 120 n weight using a single fixed pulley?

Under conditions for which the same room temperature is maintained by a heating or cooling system, it is not uncommon for a person to feel chilled in the winter but comfortable in the summer. provide a plausible explanation for this situation (with supporting calculations) by considering a room whose air temperature is maintained at 20â°c throughout the year, while the walls of the room are nominally at 27â°c and 14â°c in the summer and winter, respectively. the exposed surface of a person in the room may be assumed to be at a temperature of 32â°c throughout the year and to have an emissivity of 0.90. the coefficient associated with heat transfer by natural convection between the person and the room air is approximately 2 w/m2 â‹…â‹… k. what is the ratio of the thermal resistance due to convection to the thermal resistance due to radiation in the summer? what is the ratio of thermal resistances in the winter

The speed of light can be used to measure the
