An ocean oil well is leaking oil into the ocean at a rate of 1 m3/hr resulting in an oil slick in the form of a circular disk (like a quarter or dime). If the slick remains in the shape of a disk with a constant thickness of 1/100 m as the disk expands, determine the rate at w...

A 70-kg man and a 50-kg woman are in a 60-kg boat when its motor fails. The man dives into the water with a horizontal speed of 3m/s in order to swim ashore. If he changes his mind, can he swim back to the boat if his swimming speed is 1m/s? If not, can the woman change the bo...

When 1 g of gasoline is burned in an engine, about 48 kJ of heat is produced. How much mass is lost in the process? Do you think this mass change could directly measured

If there was zero change in Earth’s eccentricity, how might that affect the possibility of an ice age?

I used the equations of motion for constant acceleration (The object is assumed to fall with the acceleration due to gravity which I took to be 10 m/s^2) Equations of motion: V^2=U^2 + 2*a*s V=U+at Note: when objects rebounds, acceleration = - 10m/s^2 since the latter is a vec...

I worked it out and got 4.8N
