Martha ( a very fast cyclist) is riding her bike zalong horizontal road when she unknowingly comes to a complete drop off ( or cliff) at the end of the road. By remaining completely composed she lands perfectly on another level road exactly 121 m ahead and 18 m below and then continues on her way ( you may igore air resistance).
(a) Determine Martha s launce velocity along the original road ( upon encountering the cliff).
(b) Determine Martha s total flight time.
(c) Determine the velocity of Martha and her bike when she is exactly 12.5m below the original road.

The light intensity for human beings to comfortably read a page is 1 Watt/ Meeter^2. The  intensity of sunlight striking the earth is 1500 Watts/meter^2. As  you  travel in the solar system towards the outer planets the solar intensity diminishes. Given the radii of the orbits of the planets below calculate the intensity of light on the planet and find what the furthest planet that could be traveled to and still have enough light to read by.
Earth 1.5
Mars 2.3
Jupiter 7.7
Saturn 14
Uranus 28
Neptune 45

Sound
You are a conductor performing a piece of music with a tuba (f = 40Hz) and a french horn ( f = 1000Hz that are both playing equally loud and both can be heard by the audience equally well. The sound level is about 100db. Now you come to a very quiet part of the music ( sound level is 20dB) but you still want to have the audience hear both instruments equally well. Which instrument do you tell to play more quietly than the  other and why? Also approximately what must the ratio of intensities of the two instruments be for equal sound to be heard by the audience?
