A person standing at the edge of a seaside cliff kicks a stone over the edge with a speed of 8.7m/s. The cliff is 95m above the water. What is the final total velocity in the combined y and x direction, that it hits the water? And what time, t, does it take?

Aneutron and a proton combine to form a nucleus. why does the mass of the nucleus differ from the sum of the masses of the individual nucleons?

Aforce of 200 n is applied to an input piston of cross-sectional area 2 sq. cm pushing it downward 2.8 cm. how far does the output piston of cross-sectional area 12 sq. cm move upward? show all work.

Follow these directions and answer the questions. 1. set up the ripple tank as in previous investigations. 2. bend the rubber tube to form a "concave mirror" and place in the ripple tank. the water level must be below the top of the hose. 3. generate a few straight pulses with the dowel and observe the reflected waves. do the waves focus (come together) upon reflection? can you locate the place where the waves meet? 4. touch the water surface where the waves converged. what happens to the reflected wave? 5. move your finger twice that distance from the hose (2f = c of c, center of the curvature) and touch the water again. does the image (the reflected wave) appear in the same location (c of c)? you may have to experiment before you find the exact location. sometimes it is hard to visualize with the ripple tank because the waves move so quickly. likewise, it is impossible to "see" light waves because they have such small wavelengths and move at the speed of light. however, both are examples of transverse waves and behave in the same way when a parallel wave fronts hit a curved surface.
