2) A four-legged wooden bar stool made out of solid Douglas fir (the Young's modulus is 1.0×1010N/m2) has legs that are 4.0 cm in diameter. When an 80 kg man sits on the stool, how much does the length of each of the legs decrease if the are 90 cm long? (Assume, for simplicity, that the stool's legs are vertical and that each bears the same load.)

True or false graphs must include scales that increase by the same amount

Consider a system to be two train cars traveling toward each other. what is the total momentum of the system before the train cars collide?   kg • what must the total momentum of the system be after the train cars collide?   kg •  

Your starship, the aimless wanderer, lands on the mysterious planet mongo. as chief scientist-engineer, you make the following measurements: a 2.50-kg stone thrown upward from the ground at 14.0 m/s returns to the ground in 5.70 s ; the circumference of mongo at the equator is 2.20×10^5 km ; and there is no appreciable atmosphere on mongo. (a) the starship commander, captain confusion, asks for the following information: what is the mass of mongo? (b) if the aimless wanderer goes into a circular orbit 2.20×10^4 km above the surface of mongo, how many hours will it take the ship to complete one orbit? (c) an unmanned spacecraft is in a circular orbit around the moon, observing the lunar surface from an altitude of 44.0 km . to the dismay of scientists on earth, an electrical fault causes an on-board thruster to fire, decreasing the speed of the spacecraft by 23.0 m/s . if nothing is done to correct its orbit, with what speed (in km/h) will the spacecraft crash into the lunar surface?
