An engineering machine has a piston which is going up and down approximately 75 times per minute. Describe carefully how a stop watch may be used to find accurately the time for one up-and-down cycle of the piston.

Acar tire contains 0.0380 m^3 3 of air at a pressure of 2.20 ×10^{5} 5 n/m^2 2 (about 32 psi). how much more internal energy does this gas have than the same volume has at normal atmospheric pressure, 1.01x10^5 5 pa?

Arotating space station is said to create “artificial gravity”—a loosely-defined term used for an acceleration that would be crudely similar to gravity. the outer wall of the rotating space station would become a floor for the astronauts, and centripetal acceleration supplied by the floor would allow astronauts to exercise and maintain muscle and bone strength more naturally than in non-rotating space environments. if the space station is 200 m in diameter, what angular velocity would produce an “artificial gravity” of 9.80 m/s^{2} 2 at the rim?

In the circuit, the switch s has been open for a long time and r = 125 kohm. it is then suddenly closed. (a) determine the time constant before the switch is closed. s (b) determine the time constant after the switch is closed. _ s (c) let the switch be closed at t = 0. find the current in the switch as a function of time. (use t for time. express your answer in milliamps and seconds.) i(t) =_
