A 1,500 kg car is at rest on a level track. The driver gives the engine gas and the car begins to accelerate forward. The car moves from 0 m/s to 27 m/s in 8 sec. What is the acceleration of the car?

When the displacement of a mass on a spring is 12a the half of the amplitude, what fraction of the mechanical energy is kinetic energy? at what displacement, as a fraction of a, is the mechanical energy half kinetic and half potential?

Ethanol has a heat of vaporization of 38.56 kj/mol and a normal boiling point of 78.4 c. what is the vapor pressure of ethanol at 14 c?

Aball is thrown from the top of a building with an initial velocity of 21.9 m/s straight upward, at an initial height of 51.6 m above the ground. the ball just misses the edge of the roof on its way down, as shown in the figure. (a) determine the time needed for the ball to reach its maximum height. (b) determine the maximum height. (c) determine the time needed for the ball to return to the height from which it was thrown, and the velocity of the ball at that instant. (d) determine the time needed for the ball to reach the ground. (e) determine the velocity and position of the ball at t = 5.35 s.
