A 15-kg rock is dropped from rest on the earth and reaches the ground in 1.75 s. When it is
dropped from the same height on Saturn’s satellite Enceladus, it reaches the ground in 18.6 s.
(a) What is the acceleration due to gravity on Enceladus? (b) How long will it take for the
rock to reach the ground on Earth if it was released 100 m above the Earth’s surface? (c) in
Enceladus?

Multiple Choice
The temperature of a 0.700 kg cube of ice is decreased
to -150 C. Then energy is gradually transferred to the cube as
heat while it is otherwise thermally
isolated from its environment. The
total transfer is 0.6993 MJ. Assume
the value of c for ice given
is valid for temperatures from
-150 C to 0 C. What is the final
temperature of the water?
