An airplane releases a ball as it flies parallel to ground : An airplane releases a ball as it flies parallel to the ground at a height of 145 m as shown in the figure. If the ball lands on the ground precisely 145 m from the release point, compute the speed v of the plane. Neglect any effects due to air resis..

What position is the third bead in equilibrium : Two small beads having positive charges 25q and q are fixed at the opposite ends of a horizontal, insulating rod, extending from the origin (the location of the larger charge) to the point x = d. As in Figure P23.10, a third small charged bead is fre..

Lever to reduce the force required on the small piston : A hydraulic jack utilized to lift cars is called a three-ton jack. The large piston is 22 mm in diameter, the small one 6.3 mm. Suppose that a force of 3 tons is 3.0 x 104 N.
