A battleship simultaneously fires two shells toward two identical enemy ships. One shell hits ship A, which is close by, and the other hits ship B, which is farther away. The two shells are fired at the same speed. Assume that air resistance is negligible and that the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity is g.

1. What shape is the trajectory (graph of y vs. x) of the shells?
a. straight line
b. parabola
c. hyperbola
d. The shape cannot be determined.

2.For two shells fired at the same speed which statement about the horizontal distance traveled is correct?

a. The shell fired at a larger angle with respect to the horizontal lands farther away.
b. The shell fired at an angle closest to 45 degrees lands farther away.
c. The shell fired at a smaller angle with respect to the horizontal lands farther away.
d. The lighter shell lands farther away.

The ultracentrifuge is an important tool for separating and analyzing proteins. because of the enormous centripetal accelerations, the centrifuge must be carefully balanced, with each sample matched by a sample of identical mass on the opposite side. any difference in the masses of opposing samples creates a net force on the shaft of the rotor, potentially leading to a catastrophic failure of the apparatus. suppose a scientist makes a slight error in sample preparation and one sample has a mass 10 mg larger than the opposing sample. if the samples are 12 cm from the axis of the rotor and the ultracentrifuge spins at 70,000 rpm, what is the magnitude of the net force on the rotor due to the unbalanced samples? ( be thorough on your answer)
