An 80 000-kg airliner is flying at 900 km/h at a height of 10.0 km. What is its total energy (kinetic + potential) if the total was 0 when the airliner was at rest on the ground?

Jane and John, with masses of 53 and 62 , respectively, stand on a frictionless surface 15 apart. John pulls on a rope that connects him to Jane, giving Jane an acceleration of 0.90 toward him. If the pulling force is applied constantly, where will Jane and John meet?

Unless otherwise stated, all objects are located near the Earth's surface, where = 9.80 . A girl pushes a 21 lawn mower as shown in the figure . If F = 33 and N= 42 what is the acceleration of the mower? Ignore friction.

Four identical masses of mass 700 each are placed at the corners of a square whose side lengths are 11.0 What is the magnitude of the net gravitational force on one of the masses, due to the other three?

A person hums into the top of a well and finds that standing waves are established at frequencies of 42, 70.0, and 98 Hz. The frequency of 42 Hz is not necessarily the fundamental frequency. The speed of sound is 343 m/s. How deep is the well? Topic: The Principles of Linear Superposition and...

The minimum distance required to stop a car moving at 38.0 mi/h is 49.0 ft. What is the minimum stopping distance for the same car moving at 66.0 mi/h, assuming the same rate of acceleration?
