As preparation for this problem, review Conceptual Example 10. The drawing shows two planes each dropping an empty fuel tank. At the moment of release each plane has the same speed of 182 m/s, and each tank is at the same height of 3.72 km above the ground. Although the speeds are the same, the velocities are different at the instant of release, because one plane is flying at an angle of 15.0∘ above the horizontal and the other is flying at an angle of 15.0∘ below the horizontal. Find the (a) magnitude and (b) direction of the velocity with which the fuel tank hits the ground if it is from plane A. Find the (c) magnitude and (d) direction of the velocity with which the fuel tank hits the ground if it is from plane B. In each part, give the direction as a positive angle with respect to the horizontal. Plane B

A disabled tanker leaks kerosene (n = 1.20) into the Persian Gulf, creating a large slick on top of the water (n = 1.30). (a) If you are looking straight down from an airplane, while the Sun is overhead, at a region of the slick where its thickness is 462 nm, for which wavelength(s) of visible light is the reflection brightest because of constructive interference? (b) If you are scuba diving directly under this same region of the slick, for which wavelength(s) of visible light is the transmitted intensity strongest? (a) Number Units (b) Number Units

A swimmer runs horizontally off a diving board with a speed of 3.32 m/s and hits the water a horizontal distance of 1.78 m from the end of the board. (a) Find the time it takes the swimmer to hit the water. (b) How high above the water was the diving board? (c) Just before the swimmer hits the water, what are his horizontal component of velocity and his vertical component of velocity? (d) What is the magnitude and direction of the swimmer's velocity just before he hits the water?
