The dominant form of drag experienced by vehicles (bikes, cars, planes, etc.) at operating speeds is called form drag. it increases quadratically with velocity (essentially because the amount of air you run into increases with v and so does the amount of force you must exert on each small volume of air). thus fdrag = c dav2, where a is the cross-sectional area of the vehicle and cd is called the coefficient of drag.

consider a vehicle moving with constant velocity v. find the power dissipated by form drag.

Three different objects, all with different masses, are initially at rest at the bottom of a set of steps. each step is of uniform height . the mass of each object is a multiple of the base mass : object 1 has mass 4..00m , object 2 has mass 1..96m , and object 3 has mass . when the objects are at the bottom of the steps, define the total gravitational potential energy of the three-object system to be zero. if the objects are then relocated as shown, what is the new total potential energy of the system? each answer requires the numerical coefficient to an algebraic expression. each algebraic expression is given using some combination of the variables , , and , where is the acceleration due to gravity. enter only the numerical coefficient. (example: if the answer is 1..23mgd , just enter 1.23)

Oxygen undergoes an isentropic expansion from 120 degree c and 280 kpa absolute to 140 kpa absolute. determine the final temperature of the oxygen and the amount of work per kg of o_2 produced in the process if it is adiabatic.
