Compute, in centimeters and in meters, the height of a basketball player who is 6 ft 5 in. tall.
A pirate has buried his treasure on an island with five trees located at the points (30.0 m, 20.0 m), (60.0 m, 80.0 m), (10.0 m, 10.0 m), (40.0 m, 30.0 m), and (70.0 m, 60.0 m), all measured relative to some origin, as shown in Figure P1.69. His ships log instructs you to start at tree A and move toward tree B, but to cover only one-half the distance between A and B. Then move toward tree C, covering one-third the distance between your current location and C. Next move toward tree D, covering one-fourth the distance between where you are and D. Finally move toward tree E, covering one-fifth the distance between you and E, stop, and dig. (a) Assume you have correctly determined the order in which the pirate labeled the trees as A, B, C, D, and E as shown in the figure. What are the coordinates of the point where his treasure is buried? (b) What If? What if you do not really know the way the pirate labeled the trees? What would happen to the answer if you rearranged the order of the trees, for instance, to B (30 m, 20 m), A (60 m, 80 m), E (10 m, 10 m), C (40 m, 30 m), and D (70 m, 60 m)? State reasoning to show that the answer does not depend on the order in which the trees are labeled. Figure 1.69

One student uses a meterstick to measure the thickness of a textbook and obtains 4.3 cm 0.1 cm. Other students measure the thickness with vernier calipers and obtain four different measurements: (a) 4.32 cm 0.01 cm. (b) 4.31 cm 0.01 cm, (c) 4.24 cm 0.01 cm, and (d) 4.43 cm 0.01 cm. Which of these four measurements, if any, agree with that obtained by the first student?
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 .

In astronomy, a unit of distance is used called the Astronomical Unit. It is the average distance from the Earth to the Sun. If 1 au is 1.49 × 1011 m, and a light-year is the distance it takes light to travel in 1 year elapsed time (light travels at a speed of c = 3.0 x 108 ), then how many au is it to get to Alpha Centauri (our closest star with a planetary system) if is 4.367 lightyears away?
The acceleration due to gravity, g, is constant at sea level on the Earth's surface. However, the acceleration decreases as an object moves away from the Earth's surface due to the increase in distance from the center of the Earth. Derive an expression for the acceleration due to gravity at a distance h above the surface of the Earth, gh. Express the equation in terms of the radius R of the Earth, 8, and h. (1+ )² h\-2 8h = Suppose a 91.75 kg hiker has ascended to a height of 1.880 x 10³ m above sea level in the process of climbing Mt. Washington. By what percent has the hiker's weight changed from its value at sea level as a result of climbing to this elevation? Use g 9.807 m/s? and R : 6.371 × 106 m. Pay careful attention to significant figure rules, and enter your answer as a positive value.
