An oil tanker heading due west, straight into a strong wind, reaches a speed of 5 m/s and then shuts down its engines to drift. The forward-facing flat surfaces of the tanker catch a total of 60,000 N of force from the wind. Ā This wind force is pointing backwards, to the east. The tanker's mass is 100,000 metric tons, which is 100 million kg. If the wind blows at the sameĀ strength for 5 minutes, then how much has the wind changed the tanker's speed?

A. 0.18 m/s B. 0.018 m/s C. 1.2 m/s D. 1.08 m/s

A geologist suspends a 0.30-kg stone on an ideal spring. In equilibrium the stone stretches the spring 2.0 cm downward. The stone is then pulled an additional distance of 1.0 cm down and released from rest

(a) Write down the equation for the vertical position y of the stone as a function of time t, using the cosine function. Take the origin at the equilibrium point of the stone, with the positive y direction upward. (b) How fast is the stone moving at a time equal to 1/3 of its period of motion?
