QUESTION 8 A car has a mass of 900 kg . The car's engine develops 70 kW . It was found that the car would free wheel (i.e., travel with the engine off) at a constant velocity down a slope of 1 in 10. Calculate: 8.1 the tractive resistance to motion of the car 8.2 the maximum constant velocity at which the car can climb this slope in \( \mathrm{km} / \mathrm{h} \) (Answers must be to the nearest whole numbers)

QUESTION 6 (Start on a new page.) It has been established that the planet Omega has a moon and that the moon of Omega orbits the planet at a height, above the surface of Omega, which is equal to twice the radius of Omega. The mass of planet Omega is \( 3 \times 10^{15} \mathrm{~kg} \) and the mass of its moon is \( 1.5 \times 10^{13} \mathrm{~kg} \). The radius of the planet Omega is \( 8.5 \times 10^{6} \mathrm{~m} \) and the radius of its moon is \( 2.5 \times 10^{5} \mathrm{~m} \). 6.1 Determine the distance between the centre of the planet Omega and the centre of its moon.

7.2 A beam of light travels from water to plastic. The speed of light in plastic is \( 2,05 \times 10^{8} \mathrm{~m} \cdot \mathrm{~s}^{-1} \). The refractive index of water is 1,33 . Calculate the refractive index of plastic.

3) Choose the correct alternative and rewrite the statement (i) The weight of a body on the earth's surface \( =\ldots \ldots . \). \( \begin{array}{llll}\text { (a) } \frac{G M m}{R} & \text { (b) } \frac{G M m}{R^{2}} & \text { (c) } G M m R^{2} & \text { (d) } \frac{G m}{R^{2}}\end{array} \)

A coil with an area of \( 0.6 \mathrm{~m}^{2} \) is held with its axis coinciding with the direction of a magnetic field (surface perpendicular to magnetic field), with a strength of 0.4 T . 8.3 Calculate the magnetic flux.

157. Una bombola a pareti rigide di 30 L contiene \( 0,5 \mathrm{moli} \) di un gas perfetto biatomico alla temperatura iniziale di \( 20^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \). Essa viene tenuta sotto il sole per un certo tem- po e si nota che la temperatura finale è di \( 80^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \). Trascu- rando la dilatazione termica della bombola, si calcoli: - il lavoro fatto dal gas; - la variazione di pressione del gas; - la variazione di energia interna del gas. [0 J; \( \left.8,3 \times 10^{3} \mathrm{~Pa} ; 6,2 \times 10^{2} \mathrm{~J}\right] \) (Esame di Fisica, Corso di laurea in Farmacia, Università La Sapienza di Roma, 2006/2007)
