A makeshift swing is constructed by making a loop in one end of a rope and tying the other end to a tree limb. A child is sitting in the loop with the rope hanging vertically when the child's father pulls on the child with a horizontal force and displaces the child to one side. Just before the child is released from rest, the ro
A river man can row his boat at a speed of 2.5 m/s through still water. He wants to row directly across a river that has a current flowing at 1.5m/s. Starting from one bank, he rows his boat directly across the river (boat always pointed perpendicular to opposite bank) but reaches a point 50m downstream due to being swept by the
An easy way to find the time it takes for compound interest to double an investment is to divide 72 by the interest rate in percent. For example, money invested at 3% interest will double in 72/3 = 24 years. This can also be used to compute population doubling. If the current population growth rate is about 2%, when will the wor
