Answer:
Paul B. MacCready, 81; inventor of human-powered aircraft, other innovations. Paul B. MacCready, the Caltech-trained scientist and inventor who created the Gossamer Condor -- the first successful human-powered airplane -- as well as other innovative aircraft, has died. He was 81.

Answer:
0.003060 cm³
Explanation:
Mass of water = m = 326.75 gram
Density of water = ρ = 1.00 g/mL = 1 g/cm³
density = mass / volume
⇒volume = density / mass
⇒volume = 1 / 326.75
⇒Volume = 0.0030604 cm³
∴ Volume held by beaker = 0.0030604 cm³
Here the combined mass of the beaker and water is given so the volume found will be of the beaker as well as the liquid. But, it can be seen that the volume is so small that subtracting the beaker mass would have negligible effect.
Answer:
Car B has a mass of 800 kg.
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Momentum</u>
Law of Conservation of Momentum: 
Explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
<em>Identify variables</em>
[Given] m₁ = 1200 kg
[Given] v₁i = 10 m/s
[Solve] m₂
[Given] v₂i = 0 m/s
[Given] vf = 6 m/s
<u>Step 2: Solve for m₂</u>
- Substitute in variables [Law of Conservation of Momentum]: (1200 kg)(10 m/s) + m₂(0 m/s) = (1200 kg + m₂)(6 m/s)
- Multiply: 12000 kg · m/s = (1200 kg + m₂)(6 m/s)
- Isolate m₂ term: 2000 kg = 1200 kg + m₂
- Isolate m₂: 800 kg = m₂
u = 0.077
Explanation:
Work done by friction is
Wf = ∆KE + ∆PE
-umgx = ∆KE,. ∆PE =0 (level ice surface)
-umgx = KEf - KEi = -(1/2)mv^2
Solving for u,
u = v^2/2gx
= (12 m/s)^2/2(9.8 m/s^2)(95 m)
= 0.077
