Just for fun, a person jumps from rest from the top of a tall cliff overlooking a lake. in falling through a distance h, she acquires a certain speed v. assuming free-fall conditions, how much farther must she fall in order to acquire a speed of 2v? express your answer in terms of h.
b. would the answer to part
a. be different if this event were to occur on another planet where the acceleration due to gravity had a value other than 9.80 m/s2? explain.

Why do scientists believe that light is made of streams of particles? scientists believe that light is made of streams of particles because only the presence of photons can explain phenomena observed during experiments on the photoelectric effect. these observations include only some frequencies of light causing the ejection of electrons, no time gap existing between light striking a metal and electrons being ejected, and intensity having no effect on the kinetic energy of the ejected electrons.

Ablock of mass m = 2.5 kg is attached to a spring with spring constant k = 710 n/m. it is initially at rest on an inclined plane that is at an angle of θ = 23° with respect to the horizontal, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the plane is μk = 0.19. in the initial position, where the spring is compressed by a distance of d = 0.16 m, the mass is at its lowest position and the spring is compressed the maximum amount. take the initial gravitational energy of the block as zero. a) what is the block's initial mechanical energy? b) if the spring pushes the block up the incline, what distance, l, in meters will the block travel before coming to rest? the spring remains attached to both the block and the fixed wall throughout its motion.
