A car is traveling at the posted speed limit of 6.70 m/s (15 miles/h) in a school zone. The car passing a school bus when a child darts out from in front of the bus. The car is 10.0 m from the child when the driver of the car applies the brakes. The car decelerates at a constant rate of 4.00 m/s2 until coming to a halt. Calculate the
(a) distance of the car travels while decelerating and
(b) distance required to stop if the car is initially traveling at 13.4 m/s (30.0 miles/h).

Light traveling in water, nwater = 1.33, strikes a plastic block at an angle of incidence of 51.4°; part of the beam is reflected and part is refracted. if the index of refraction of the plastic is 2.0, what is the angle made by the reflected and refracted beams?

An ice-making machine inside a refrigerator operates in a carnot cycle. it takes heat from liquid water at 0.0 degrees celsius and rejects heat to a room at a temperature of 19.2 degrees celsius. suppose that liquid water with a mass of 76.3kg at 0.0 degrees celsius is converted to ice at the same temperature. take the heat of fusion for water to be l_f = 3.34*10^5 j/kg.how much energy e must be supplied to the device? express your answer in joules.

Review multiple-concept example 7 in this chapter as an aid in solving this problem. in a fast-pitch softball game the pitcher is impressive to watch, as she delivers a pitch by rapidly whirling her arm around so that the ball in her hand moves in a circle. in one instance, the radius of the circle is 0.626 m. at one point on this circle, the ball has an angular acceleration of 66.1 rad/s2 and an angular speed of 12.6 rad/s. (a) find the magnitude of the total acceleration (centripetal plus tangential) of the ball. (b) determine the angle of the total acceleration relative to the radial direction.
