4.0 seconds as she accelerated uniformly from
rest. the magnitude of the acceleration of the
runner was
(1) 0.25 m/s2 (3) 3.0 m/s2
(2) 1.5 m/s2 (4) 48 m/s2

Ababy stroller is a rest on top of a hill which is 10 m high. the stroller and baby have a mass of 20 kg. what is the potential energy of the baby and stroller?

The california mussel (mytilus californianus) attaches itself to a rock or other solid surface with a bundle of filaments known as the byssus. imagine that 15.0 j of work is done to stretch the distal end of the byssus. it releases 10.8 j of thermal energy as it relaxes. what is the resilience of the distal end of the byssus?

An astronaut in space cannot use a scale or balance to weigh objects because there is no gravity. but she does have devices to measure distance and time accurately. she knows her own mass is 77.4 kg , but she is unsure of the mass of a large gas canister in the airless rocket. when this canister is approaching her at 3.50 m/s , she pushes against it, which slows it down to 1.30 m/s (but does not reverse it) and gives her a speed of 2.60 m/s . what is the mass of the canister?
