Auniform thin disk with a 6-in. diameter is attached to the end of a rod ab of negligible mass that is supported by a ball-and-socket joint at point a. knowing that the disk is spinning about its axis of symmetry ab at the rate of 2800 rpm in the sense indicated and that ab forms an angle β = 45° with the vertical axis ac, determine the two possible rates of steady precession of the disk about the axis ac.

Global warming will produce rising sea levels partly due to melting ice caps but also due to the expansion of water as average ocean temperatures rise. to get some idea of the size of this effect, calculate the change in length of a column of water 1.00 km high for a temperature increase of 1.00ºc. note that this calculation is only approximate because ocean warming is not uniform with depth. (answer in ×10^{-3} −3 m)

What is the role of lenses in microscopy?

Adiver named jacques observes a bubble of air rising from the bottom of a lake (where the absolute pressure is 3.50 atm) to the surface (where the pressure is 1.00 atm). the temperature at the bottom is 4.00 ∘c, and the temperature at the surface is 23.0 ∘c.what is the ratio of the volume of the bubble as it reaches the surface (vs) to its volume at the bottom (vb)? if jaques were to hold his breath the air in his lungs would be kept at a constant temperature. would it be safe for jacques to hold his breath while ascending from the bottom of the lake to the surface?
