In a problem using energy considerations to solve for the speed of a ball thrown from the top of a building when it strikes the ground below, where should the potential energy have its zero value?

a. It should be at the level from where the ball is thrown. b. It should be at the ground level where the ball hits. c. It should be slightly below ground level so the potential energy is always positive. d. It doesn't matter since only differences in potential energy matter in solutions.

A 35-mm digital camera using a standard 50.0 mm lens is focused on a 1.80 m tall person who is standing 3.25 m from the lens

You now refocus the camera on a 15.0 cm tall flower that is 75.0 cm from the lens. (a) In refocusing, by how much did you move the lens? Did you move it toward the film or away from it? (b) What is the height of the flower's image on the CCD sensor?
