Question: How many nanoseconds does it take light to travel 1.00 ft in vacuum? (This result is a useful quantity to remember.)?
A swimming pool is 5.0 m long, 4.0 m wide, and 3.0 m deep. Compute the force exerted by the water against (a) the bottom and (b) either end. (Hint: Calculate the force on a thin, horizontal strip at a depth h, and integrate this over the end of the pool.) Do not include the force due to air pressure.
Air traffic controllers give instructions called 鈥渧ectors鈥 to tell airline pilots in which direction they are to fly. If these are the only instructions given, is the name 鈥渧ector鈥 used correctly? Why or why not?
