Check Your Understanding You probably recall that, neglecting air resistance, if you throw a projectilestraight up, the time ii takes to reach its maximum height equals the time it takes to fall from themaximum height back to the starting height. Suppose you cannot neglect air resistance, as in Example8.8. Is the time the projectile takes to go up (a) greater than, (b) less than, or (c) equal to the time Ittakes to come back down? Explain.

We must assess whether the projectile's time to launch is greater, less, or equal to the time needed…

You are working with a movie director and investigating a scene with a cowboy sliding off a tree limb and falling onto the saddle of a moving horse. The distance of the fall is several meters, and the calculation shows a high probability of injury to the cowboy from the stunt. Let's look at a simpler situation. Suppose the director asks you to have the cowboy step off a platform 2.55 m off the ground and land on his feet on the ground. The cowboy keeps his legs straight as he falls, but then bends at the knees as soon as he touches the ground. This allows the center of mass of his body to move through a distance of 0.670 m before his body comes to rest. (Center of mass will be formally defined in Linear Momentum and Collisions.) You assume this motion to be under constant acceleration of the center of mass of his body. To assess the degree of danger to the cowboy in this stunt, you wish to calculate the average force upward on his body from the ground, as a multiple of the cowboy's…

Consider a roller-coaster car on a track that has a loop of known radius R. If there is no friction between the rollercoaster car and the track, then determine (a) the minimum speed at the top of the loop for the rollercoaster car to still be in contact with the track and (b) the minimum height h the rollercoaster car must start from in order to go all the way around the loop without losing contact with the track (assuming the rollercoaster starts from rest). The only knowns here are R and g, so your symbolic answers need to be in terms of these. Part (a) can be treated using newton's second law and uniform circular motion (even though it's not really uniform). Start with a free-body diagram of a coaster car at the top of the loop. What does it mean for the rollercoaster car to still be "in contact" with the track? Part (b) can be treated using conservation of mechanical energy. You'll need your result from part (a). How high above the ground are you when you're at the top…
