The potential energy of a 22.5-kg cannonball is 11500 J. How high was the cannon ball to have this much potential energy?

In a good thermo flask the main cause of heat loss is

Aspring is used to stop a 50-kg package which is moving down a 20º incline. the spring has a constant k = 30 kn/m and is held by cables so that it is initially compressed 50 mm. knowing that the velocity of the package is 2 m/s when it is 8 m from the spring and neglecting friction, determine the maximum additional deformation of the spring in bringing the package to rest.

Asynthetic fiber used in manufacturing carpet has tensile strength that is normally distributed with mean 75.5 psi and standard deviation 3.5 psi. how is the standard deviation of the sample mean changed when the sample size is increased from n equals 8 to n equals 47
