1. Now you are trying to melt 5-g of ice at 0 oC. How much heat is needed to completely melt the ice? Assume that specific heat capacity of ice is 0.5 cal/(goC) and the latent heat of fusion of water is 335 J/g.
2.Initially, car A has four times the kinetic energy that car B has. Both are braked to a stop; both have the same amount of braking force. Car B will stop in ____________ as car A. (Hint: W=Fd=KE).
3.A 50-kg boy sits on a see-saw 1.0 m from the center where the pivot point is, and a 20-kg dog is put on a seat on the other side of the see-saw to balance it. At what distance should the dog's seat be installed from the pivot?
4. A ball of mass 10 kg, moving to the west at a speed of 1.8 m/s, collides head-on with a stationary ball of a smaller diameter and of mass 1.0 kg. After the collision, the 1-kg ball moves with a speed of 2.0 m/s to the west. Which of the following is then true? (Hint: conservation of momentum, p10kg,initial = p10kg,final + p1kg, final ).
