The vase on the right can be described as a cylinder with a varying radius. Using a y-coordinate which starts at the top and then runs all the way down, the shape can be described by the radius in cm using the y-coordinate in cm: r(y)=|2+ y sin sinh y y =16 h = 16 – y %3D (with r, h and y in centimetres) (the function sinh() or hyperbolic sine, can be found in the math module) A wine decanter is used to let the wine 'breathe' a bit before drinking it and to avoid serving glasses with the sediment of an old wine. A student, who somehow hasn't got a crystal wine decanter, is inventive and decides to use this simple, cleaned vase as to decant the wine. How high will the surface of the wine be, measured from the bottom, when a bottle of wine of 0.750 litres (so 750 cm') is poured in this vase? Calculate the volume by summing the small volumes of the flat cylinders of with a height of Ay given by the volume of this disc: AV = Ar Ay Starting from the bottom of the phase. To check your program: a volume of 0.25 litres will fill it up to a height of h = 2.736 cm (rounded to three decimals). Give your answer h in cm for a complete bottle of 0.750 dm3, rounded off to 1 digit behind the decimal point.

A surveyor measures the distance across a straight river by the following method (Fig. P1.6). Starting directly across from a tree on the opposite bank, she walks d = 100 m along the riverbank to establish a baseline. Then she sights across to the tree. The angle from her baseline to the tree is 0 = 35.0. How wide is the river? Figure P1.6

In SI units, speeds are measured in meters per second (m/s). But, depending on where you live, you’re probably mole comfortable of thinking of speeds in terms of either kilometers per hour (km/h) or miles per hour (mi/h). In this problem, you will see that 1 m/s is roughly 4 km/h or 2 mi/h, which is handy to use when developing your physical Intuition. More precisely, show that (a) 1.0m/s=3.6km/h and 1.0m/s=2.2mi/h .
Check Your understanding Using the three displacement vectors A , B , and F in Figure 2.13, choose a convenient scale, and use a ruler and a protractor to find vector G given by the vector equation G=A+2BF . The three displacement vectors A , B , and C in Figure are specified by their magnitudes A=10.0,B=7.0 and C=8.0 , respectively, and by their respective direction angles with the horizontal direction =35,=110 , and =30 . The physical units of the magnitudes are centimeters. Choose a convenient scale and use a ruler and a protractor to find the following vector sums: (a) R=A+B , (b) D=AB , and (c) S=A3B+C .
