Show that kinetic energy of the earth after a collision can be ignored

I can't quite follow what you're doing there, and it's really late where I am, so I'll just start you off the right way.

This problem basically hinges on the Earth being much more massive than the ball, so the ratio of the mass of the ball to that of the earth is very close to zero.

Let's use some simpler symbols. Up is positive, down is negative. m is the mass of the ball, M is the mass of the earth. u is the initial speed of the ball, v is the final speed of the ball. The initial (vertical) speed of the earth is zero, the final speed is w.

So ##-mu = mv - Mw## ---eqn 1

##\frac{1}{2}mu^2 = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \frac{1}{2}Mw^2## --eqn 2

The first eqn is conservation of linear momentum, second is conservation of K.E.

Rearrange eqn 1 to isolate w in terms of the other two variables, then put that in eqn 2. You should obtain an equation relating the ratio ##\displaystyle \frac{u}{v}## to an expression in terms of the ratio ##\displaystyle \frac{m}{M}##. When you let ##\displaystyle \frac{m}{M} \rightarrow 0##, what can you say about u and v?

Now consider what that means in terms of equation 2. Observe that the second term on the RHS represents the K.E. of the earth. Remember that the only kinetic energy here comes from the ball. If it bounces up with (almost) the same kinetic energy as it came down with, what can you say about the kinetic energy imparted to the earth in the collision?

The GOP's solution to Obamacare? Nothing

This letter is in response to ?GOP needs to face reality, or else? (Column, July 30).

I could not agree more.?Republicans cannot successfully oppose Obamacare without proposing their own ideas for healthcare reform. But they won't, because they don't care about people who don't have insurance, they don't care about people with preexisting conditions. ?

Let the uninsured lose their savings to pay medical bills. Let them die prematurely. The Republicans don't think that's important. Most Republicans and their supporters have good health insurance themselves, so they have the "I've got mine, so I don't care about the rest of you" mentality.

Obamacare may have its problems, but at least it's an attempt to fix our broken healthcare system, and I'd rather give that a chance and tweak it where needed rather than go with what the Republicans are offering, which is nothing.?

Iranian TV clarifies Rouhani's Israel 'wound' comment

DUBAI | Fri Aug 2, 2013 9:30am EDT

DUBAI (Reuters) - Two days before his inauguration as Iran's new president, Hassan Rouhani said on Friday that Israeli occupation of Palestinian land had inflicted a "wound" on the Muslim world, according to a segment of his remarks broadcast on Iran's state-run Press TV.

An earlier report by Iran's student news agency ISNA had quoted Rouhani as saying: "The Zionist regime is a wound that has sat on the body of the Muslim world for years and needs to be removed."

That version echoed the fiercely anti-Israeli language of outgoing President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, but was swiftly repudiated by Iranian state media, which said unidentified news agencies had distorted Rouhani's remarks.

Press TV then broadcast an excerpt from an exchange between Rouhani and journalists at a rally to mark Iran's annual Al Qods Day in support of the Palestinians.

"After all, in our region there's been a wound for years on the body of the Muslim world under the shadow of the occupation of the holy land of Palestine and the beloved al-Qods (Jerusalem)," Rouhani said in the segment.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu seized on ISNA's version of Rouhani's comments, saying they showed the reputedly moderate Iranian cleric was as hostile to Israel as Ahmadinejad, whose denial of the Holocaust and description of Israel as a "cancerous tumor" prompted international condemnation.

The United States and its allies suspect Iran of seeking a nuclear weapons capability. Tehran says its nuclear program is purely for peaceful purposes, but Israel regards it as a threat to its existence and refuses to rule out military action.

With a more pragmatic president in Iran, Western countries may see a better chance for diplomacy to lead to a deal to curb Tehran's uranium enrichment program and avoid any conflict.

"The true face of Rouhani has been revealed sooner than expected. Even if they hurry to deny his words - this is what the man thinks and this is the Iranian regime's plan of action," Netanyahu said in a statement.

Rouhani's words "must awaken the world from the illusion in which part of it is placed since the Iranian elections", he declared, saying Iran still aimed "to acquire nuclear weapons in order to threaten Israel, the Middle East and world peace".

"A nation that threatens to destroy the state of Israel must not be allowed to have weapons of mass destruction," he said.

Ahmadinejad addressed Israel on Qods Day in his last speech as president. "You planted wind in our region and you will reap the storm. I swear to God that a ferocious storm is coming and it will uproot the Zionist entity," Iran's state news agency IRNA quoted him as saying.

Google brings 'Find my iPhone'-like service to Android?

Google

Devin Coldewey NBC News

17 hours ago

Google

The Android Device Manager will show a location, and give options to ring or wipe the phone.

Forgetful and unlucky Android phone and tablet owners will be happy to hear that their lost or stolen devices will now be trackable with a free service much like Apple's "Find my iPhone."

The Android Device Manager, announced by Google in a blog post Friday, will let you quickly locate your phone or tablet, whether it's in the kitchen or at the bar you were hanging out at last night.

Once your device is registered, you can log in to the service and it will immediately show your phone or tablet's current or last known position on a map. If it's nearby, you can make it ring or sound at max volume, even if it's in silent mode. If it's somewhere distant, at least you know where it is.

If, on the other hand, it has been stolen or can't be found, you can quickly wipe all the data from the device so whoever has it can't abuse your accounts or run up charges.

The service will go live later this month, and will work with any Android device that runs version 2.2 or above ? which is nearly all of them these days. Watch Google's official Android blog for further announcements.

College Hosts ?White Student Union?

By Alan with comments August 1, 2013 15:56

Complaints are pouring in to Georgia State because of the ?White Student Union? started by a student.

Freshman Patrick Sharp said he started the club so that students of European and Euro-American descent can celebrate their shared history and culture and discuss issues that affect white people, such as immigration and affirmative action.

The club is not an official student group recognized by the university. Sharp said any student can join and that he would work with other clubs, such as the Black Student Alliance, on common issues.

Georgia State is highly diverse, with whites comprising 38 percent of the student body, followed by blacks at 35 percent, Asians at 12 percent and Latinos at 7 percent.

?If we are already minorities on campus and are soon to be minorities in this country why wouldn?t we have the right to advocate for ourselves and have a club just like every other minority?? said Sharp, 18. ?Why is it when a white person says he is proud to be white he?s shunned as a racist??

TransCanada to build pipeline to Eastern Canada

TORONTO (AP) -- Pipeline company TransCanada says it will go ahead with a $12 billion plan to ship 1.1 million barrels of oil per day from Alberta to the country's Atlantic coast that would allow Canadian crude to be exported to Asia.

TransCanada said Thursday the pipeline will terminate in Saint John, New Brunswick, where a new deep-water marine terminal for tankers will be built.

Natural Resource Minister Joe Oliver says he welcomes the prospect of transporting crude from Western Canada to consumers and refineries in Eastern Canada and ultimately to new markets abroad.

The announcement comes as TransCanada faces stiff opposition to its proposed Keystone XL pipeline from Alberta to Texas. President Obama's initial rejection of Keystone went over badly in Canada, which relies on the U.S. for 97 percent of its energy exports.

92% Frances Ha

All Critics (128) | Top Critics (36) | Fresh (118) | Rotten (10)

In your twenties you decide on the final version of you. Sophie is working on it; Frances is stuck in her crazy, clueless, can't-pay-the-rent stage.

It's a tribute to Gerwig's performance, somehow both clumsy and elegant, that she wins us over despite ourselves, that we come to appreciate her aimlessness in a goal-oriented society ...

This is an odd film (creepier than it knows), and even if you feel the atmospheric company of Dunham-ism, with a little of Whit Stillman, Henry Jaglom, and Woody Allen, the core influence on Noah Baumbach's film is fifty years older or more.

Baumbach usually builds his films around difficult protagonists, but Frances is entirely endearing, at once silly and deep, hopeless and promising.

The dialogue and editing are zippy and generally charming, combining with the tart observations of 20-something culture to create a nice frisson.

A black-and-white salute to the French New Wave (the score is borrowed from Georges Delerue, composer of many a Truffaut and Godard film) that manages to be very much of this moment ...

Frances Ha has a warmth and lightness absent from Baumbach's earlier films, The Squid And The Whale (2005) and Margot At The Wedding (2007).

The sheer joy on Gerwig's face as she leaps and pirouettes across roads and between pedestrians is infectious.

There's little doubt that many people will find her insufferable, and almost everyone will experience moments of acute discomfort. But this is a wonderful performance that never becomes ingratiating.

Like Ethan Hawke's recent Before Midnight (aimed at people in their 40s), Frances Ha will engage its literate-minded target audience fed up with disaster blockbusters.

The hilarious, touching Frances Ha is lubricated by the same juice that allowed Jean-Luc Godard's Bande ? Part to slip so smoothly through the streets of Paris.

A film that's well aware of its own hipness, but never too cool to laugh and cry.

Frances Ha might well strike some viewers as ridiculously twee and tiresomely indulgent to its immature heroine. Not me, though. I'm happy to be enchanted.

Gerwig's last jaunt to Europe was in Woody Allen's feeble and disjointed To Rome With Love, and even Allen himself might acknowledge that here she is despatched across the Atlantic in a far more successful cause.

A perky cinematic pick-me-up starring the endearing Greta Gerwig who co-wrote the screenplay with director Noah Baumbach, her boyfriend.

I'm not sure what Noah Baumbach's Frances Ha is about, which is one reason I like it so much.

Frances is only adequate as a dancer but her enthusiasm bridges the gap between aspiration and ability. She deserves an A for effort. The film gets one for attainment.

It's a likable movie, with some nice moments of both comedy and pathos, and beautifully shot, but for me the reverence for its heroine was not completely earned, and the arrowhead was missing: the decisive jab of satire, of insight, of love.

This film may look like one of those annoyingly mannered independent films, with its wacky young cast and arty-farty black and white photography, but it's actually a fresh, smart and very funny comedy.

Noah Baumbach and Greta Gerwig have carved out, with effortless elegance and ease, a cinematic space for a woman to be, unapologetically, herself.

Frances Ha both acknowledges and earns its place in the tradition of the New York bourgeois comedy, encoding the angst of social mores in witty dialogue. Make no mistake: the cinematic slacker has come of age.

An unlikely feelgood crowd-pleaser - Frances Ha is sweet, funny, darling and almost unbearably lovely. And thankfully, everyone enunciates.

Brilliantly directed and beautifully shot, this is an utterly delightful, warm-hearted and very funny comedy with a wonderful script and a terrific central performance from Greta Gerwig.

Despite Gerwig's natural appeal and talent as a performer, Frances' self-absorption and flakiness begin to grate.

When is a film a throwaway sketch that's so good it's frameable? When it's Frances Ha.

Much of the reason why Frances Ha is a far more well-crafted and enjoyable piece of cinema than either Lola Versus or Damels in Distress.

Liberal Arts College President Creates Furor After Calling Minority Students 'Dark Ones'

Hillsdale College President?Larry Arnn made headlines yesterday after he referred to minorities as "dark ones" during a hearing in front of the Michigan state legislature.

While discussing a letter the college recieved in 2000 from the Michigan Department of Education about its seeming lack of racial diversity, Arnn said, "They said we violated the standards for diversity because we didn't have enough dark ones, I guess is what they meant." When asked to clarify his statement, Arnn said that the state of Michigan had sent representatives to Hillsdale to mark down the color of people's faces on clipboards, the Detroit Free Press reports.

A Michigan Department of Education spokesperson confirmed to the Free Press that no representatives had ever been sent to Hillsdale to identify students by race.

Several legislators chastised Arnn after his remarks, according to the Free Press.?One Democratic lawmaker told Arnn "You?re the president of a college. I would expect better out of you."?

Since the incident, Arnn has found support in both the Hillsdale administration and alumni of the college.

"I think this was Dr. Arnn's way to indicate that he was offended with what they were doing in taking clipboards and walking around campus to record the color of students' skin," one Hillsdale alum told MLive.

A statement from the college reaffirmed the school's commitment against discrimination based on "nationality, color or sex." Founded in 1844, Hillsdale was the first college in America whose charter prohibited discrimination.?

The statement reads,?"A controversy has arisen over Dr. Arnn's use of the term 'dark ones' to describe the students the state bureaucrats were there to identify. No offense was intended by the use of that term except to the offending bureaucrats, and Dr. Arnn is sorry if such offense was honestly taken. But the greater concern, he believes, is the state-endorsed racism the story illustrates."

Diageo Reports Fiscal 2013 Earnings

Diageo Plc.?s (DEO) earnings in fiscal 2013 ended Jun 30, 2013, went up 11% year over year in local currency to 104.4 pence ($1.6* per share) from 94.2 pence ($1.5** per share) in the same period previous year.

Positive pricing, favorable mix in the emerging markets, volume growth in North America and Latin America, and tight cost control by management contributed to profit growth during the fiscal 2013.

On a reported basis, net revenue (i.e. total revenue excluding excise duties) increased 6% in local currency to ?11.4 billion ($17.9 billion) in fiscal year 2013. On an organic basis, revenues increased 5%, while volume grew 1% from the prior-year level.

Diageo increased its marketing spending by 5% organically in fiscal 2013. Operating profit before exceptional items (excluding acquisitions and disposals) went up 8% year over year, on an organic basis.

During fiscal 2013, scotch was the most profitable category backed by the strong sales of Johnnie Walker. Diageo continued to enhance its wide portfolio of brands with innovations and massive product launches, particularly in the U.S. spirit market.

Segment Details

All the regions, except Europe, have delivered positive organic sales growth.

In North America, Diageo?s organic sales increased 5% in fiscal 2013, with a volume growth of 1% backed by positive price/mix and strong results in the U.S. spirits market. The shift in demand toward premium spirits led to strong sales of the premium brands of Diageo during the period. Marketing spending increased 7% in the region, primarily because of increased investment in strategic brands. Operating profit grew 10% organically in the year.

Beer and Ready to Drink suffered sales decline mainly due to increased competition and supply disruptions?

In Western Europe, organic sales fell 4% along with volume declines of 3% due to ongoing macroeconomic challenges. The company saw 9% decline in operating profit with an 8% decline in marketing spending. Marketing investment during the period was focused on the strategic brands like Captain Morgan, Tanqueray and Guinness.

Diageo has started reporting Africa, Eastern Europe and Turkey as a new geographical segment. This segment's organic sales increased 10% in the fiscal year, with 4% growth in volume backed by strong spirits sales gain in the region. Marketing spending increased 14% in the region, particularly on well established brands. Operating profit increased 14%.

The Latin America and Caribbean region delivered a strong performance in the year, with organic sales growth of 15% and volume growth of 4% backed by strong growth in Venezuela and Mexico, partially offset by a slowdown in Brazil. The company also increased its marketing spending by 12% to enhance the brand equities in its reserve brands. It will also invest part of it in enhancing strategic brands like Johnnie Walker Red Label, Black&White and White Horse. Despite the increasing costs, operating profit grew 28% in the year.

In the Asia Pacific region, sales climbed 3% organically with a volume growth of 1% mostly due to difficult conditions in Korea. Marketing spending jumped 8% mainly on reserve brands and operating profit grew 24% on an organic basis backed by positive pricing. Strong results in Taiwan, Japan, Australia and the Middle East were partially offset by reduced spending in China.

The company is increasing marketing investment in all the geographical segments and is focusing more on its premium brands. The strategy of converting to high-margin high-priced products is helping the company improve its margins.

Diageo is expanding fast into the emerging markets. Diageo holds 27.4% ownership in United Spirits Limited, a leading spirit company of India.

Currently, Diageo Plc carries a Zacks Rank #4 (Sell). Other consumer staples companies which are better placed and are worth considering are Tyson Foods Inc. (TSN), Green Mountain Coffee Roasters Inc. (GMCR) and Nash Finch Company (NAFC). While Green Mountain and Nash Finch hold a Zacks #1 (Strong Buy), Tsingtao Brewery carries a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy).

*?1=$1.56908 (average price of the year ended Jun 30, 2013).

GOP leaders halt debate on austere spending bill

By ANDREW TAYLOR
Associated Press

WASHINGTON (AP) - House GOP leaders Wednesday halted debate on an austere measure that was full of cuts to transportation and housing programs and community development grants, a setback for their budget strategy of embracing the stark spending levels dictated by automatic spending cuts known as sequestration.

GOP aides said there wasn't enough time in a busy House floor schedule to continue debate, but House Appropriations Committee Chairman Harold Rogers, R-Ky., said it was apparent there weren't the votes to pass the bill.

As the House measure faltered, a companion bill in the Senate seemed likely to be killed by a GOP filibuster on Thursday for the opposite reason. It breaks the budget limits of sequestration, the automatic cuts required by Washington's failure to strike a bipartisan budget deal.

The twin developments reflect the broader dysfunction in Washington over the budget. All sides want to reverse the crippling sequestration cuts but a partisan impasse over tax increases sought by President Barack Obama and his Democratic allies and cuts to so-called mandatory programs like Medicare and food stamps demanded by Republicans shows no signs of breaking.

Congress leaves Washington this week for a five-week vacation; the battle will be rejoined in the fall.

Cuts in the House transportation measure were made deeper by a Republican move to cut an additional $40 billion-plus from domestic programs and transfer the money to the Pentagon. That left the transportation measure $10 billion, or about 18 percent, below the Senate's bill.

Rogers, who often is cautious in his public statements, issued an unusually harsh blast, saying halting debate on the measure reflected a failure of Republicans to follow up on their promises to cut spending with binding legislation.

"With this action, the House has declined to proceed on the implementation of the very budget it adopted just three months ago," Rogers said. He said the failed transportation and housing measure was the first major attempt by Republicans to pass an appropriations bill at levels consistent with the sequestration cuts and that the failure of the bill meant it was time for a new approach.

"The House, Senate and White House must come together as soon as possible on a comprehensive compromise that repeals sequestration, takes the nation off this lurching path from fiscal crisis to fiscal crisis, reduces our deficits and debt, and provides a realistic topline discretionary spending level to fund the government in a responsible - and attainable - way," Rogers said.

Some House conservatives vow to oppose every spending measure, while the cuts in the bill may be too deep for more moderate Republicans. Also on Wednesday, a bitterly divided Appropriations Committee debated a $24.3 billion measure funding the Interior Department and the Environmental Protection Agency at levels 19 percent below those passed earlier this year.

A spokesman for GOP Whip Kevin McCarthy of California said the Republican majority's top vote counter was confident he would have been able to round up enough votes to pass the bill if there were more time for debate.

The move comes as companion legislation in the Senate may be filibustered to death on Thursday by Republicans because it exceeds budget levels called for under the automatic budget cuts.

"Voting for appropriations legislation that blatantly violates budget reforms already agreed to by both parties moves our country in exactly, exactly the wrong direction," Senate Minority leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said.

"The collapse of the partisan transportation and housing bill in the House proves that their sequestration-on-steroids bills are unworkable, and that we are going to need a bipartisan deal to replace sequestration," said Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash., chief author of the Senate bill. "And while we work toward that, we should pass the bipartisan Senate transportation and housing bill and show our constituents that we are putting them and their communities above partisanship and political games."
