A banana boat rider's motion is described at four different moments: (a) The rider is floating motionless in the water. (b) The towboat started the engine and went off and the banana boat where the rider sits is being pulled off. (c) The rider is moving at a constant speed along a straight line. (d) The rider has let go of the strap from the boat and fell off. For each moment, explain whether the net force acting on the rider is zero.

(3) The natural independent variables for U are (S, V), from dU = TdS – pdV. U = U(S,V) (), instead. Show that U = U (V,T) leads to a much more complicated expression for p, namely gives simple expressions for T and p as T = and ().: Suppose you use (V,T) p = - V dT + f(V), %D T where f (V) is an unknown function of V.
