A 4.5 kg pelican is gliding due east while a small force of air resistance is acting on the bird in the

opposite direction. If the net force acting on the bird is 1.2 N to the west, what is the bird's acceleration?

If a ball is thrown straight up into the air with an initial velocity of 70 ft/s, it height in feet after t second is given by y = 70 t - 16 t^2. Find the average velocity for the time period beginning when t = 2 and lasting (i) 0.1 seconds

How to indicate kinetic energy

During induction, a positively charged rod is brought near to but not touching the electroscope. The presence of the charged object above the plate of the electroscope induces charges to move down into the gold leaves, giving the electroscope an
