A rear-wheel–drive car weighs 3600 lb, has 15-inch–radius wheels, a drivetrain efficiency of 95%, and an engine that develops 520 ft-lb of torque. Its wheelbase is 8.2 ft, and the center of gravity is 18 inches above the road surface and 3.3 ft behind the front axle. What is the lowest gear reduction ratio that would allow this car to achieve the highest possible acceleration from rest on good, dry pavement?

19. explain why a magnet from your refrigerator could not be used to lift something as heavy as a car. (chapter 7 – pages 202-203) 20. can a magnet ever have a single pole? explain your answer. (chapter 7 – page 208) 21. what happens to the wavelength of a wave if the frequency is increased? (chapter 9 – pages 280-281) 22. an ocean wave has a wavelength of 10 m and a frequency of 4.0 hz. what is the velocity of the wave? show the appropriate equation from your book and show your work with units. (chapter 9 – page 282) 23. as you sit outside, the sound of a siren becomes lower in pitch. is the emergency vehicle moving away from or towards you? explain how you know. (chapter 10 – page 315-316) 24. why are two astronauts in space unable to hear one another? (chapter 10 – page 307) 25. explain in at least 3 sentences how electromagnetic waves form. (chapter 11 – page 338-339) 26. using the chart on page 345 in your textbook, what are the three types of electromagnetic wave with wavelengths shorter than those of visible light. give an example of each. (chapter 11 – pages 345-351) 27. explain why a leaf usually appears to be green, but a rose typically appears red. (chapter 12 – page 373) 28. what is the difference in light that is refracted compared to light that is reflected? think in terms of speed of light as well as what happens to light waves when they interact with a medium. (chapter 12 – pages 369-370) 29. how are concave and convex lenses different? (chapter 13 – page 408-410) 30. what type of mirror is used in rearview mirrors in cars? why is it important that these mirrors have the warning, “objects in mirror are closer than they appear.”? (chapter 13 – page 405)

The table below shows the acceleration of gravity on different bodies in the solar system. on which body would a 10 kg lamp has the most gravitational potential energy when lifted to a height of 2 m? a. earth b. mars c. neptune d. uranus

Use the information presented in the graph to answer the questions. which segments show acceleration? which segment indicates that the object is slowing down? what is the velocity of segment b? what is the acceleration of segment b?
