The masses of the javelin, discus, and shotput are0.80 kg, 2.0kg,and 7.2 kg, respectively, and recordthrows in the correspondingtrack events are about 89 m, 69 m, and21 m, respectively.
Neglecting air resistance, estimate the average forceexertedon each object during the throw, assuming the force actsover adistance of 2.0 m.
Javelin = ?
Discus = ?
Shotput = ?

The diameter of an atom is about 1 angstrom (10-10 m). In order todevelop some intuition for the molecular scale of a gas, assumethat you are considering 1 liter of air (mostly N2 and O2, withmolar masses of 28 g/mol and 32 g/mol respectively) at roomtemperature and atmospheric pressure (about 105 Pa). As always, besure to show your work and explain your reasoning.
a) Calculate the number of molecules in this sample of air.
b) Estimate the average spacing between the molecules.
c) Estimate the average speed of a molecule based on theMaxwell-Boltzmann distribution.
d) Suppose that we scale up the gas so that each atom is the sizeof a tennis ball. We also scale up the spaces between the atomsproportionally. Now what would be the average spacing betweenmolecules? What would be the average speed of a molecule in milesper hour?

1)As shown in the figure, a uniform conducting rod of length 0.40 m and mass 0.075 kg is in rotational equilibrium about the hinge at point O. A uniform magnetic field of 0.23 T is directed out of the plane of the page, perpendicular to the rod. Due to a battery and wires not shown, there is a current of 4.0 A in the rod directed toward point O. Determine the angle θ.

2)As shown in the figure, a conducting rod with a length of 0.79 m is placed on a horizontal frictionless surface and attached to a power supply by two springs, each with a spring constant of 81 N/m. The springs are initially at their equilibrium length and are in a region where there is a uniform magnetic field of 0.17 T that is perpendicular to the frictionless surface when the power supply supplies a current that causes the wire to move in such a direction that the two springs are stretched.

A top view of a table shows an arrow field labeled vector B pointing down into the table. On the table a rod lies from the top of the image to the bottom of the image, with a spring attached to the right side of the rod near the top and bottom. The springs are connected to wires that are attached to a power supply.
(a) Determine the stretch of each spring, if the current through the rod is 11 A.
 
3)A conducting rod of length L = 30.5 cm slides over two horizontal metal bars with a constant speed v to the left through a distance Δx in a time Δt. The entire set up is in a region of uniform magnetic field of magnitude 1.30 T that is directed perpendicular to the rods and out ofthe page.
(a) If the induced emf has a magnitude of 1.00 V, what is the speed with which the rod moves?
