Try catching a ball while "giving" with the ballI, pulling your hands toward your body. Then, try catching a ball while keeping your hands still. Hit water in a tub with your full palm. After the water has settled, hit the water again by diving your hand with your fingers first into the water. (Your full palm represents a swimmer doing a belly flop and your diving hand represents a swimmer doing a dive.) Explain what happens in each case and why. Which orientations would you advise people to avoid and why?

In this example, we are going to take a look at a different type of friction, one that is not described by equations for static-friction force and kinetic-friction force. When an object moves through a fluid (such as water or air), it exerts a force on the fluid to push it out of the way. By Newton's third law, the fluid pushes back on the object, in a direction opposite to the object's velocity relative to the fluid, always opposing the object's motion and usually increasing with speed. In high-speed motion through air, the resisting force is approximately proportional to the square of the object's speed v; it's called a drag force, or simply drag. We can represent its magnitude FD by FD=Dv2, where D is a proportionality constant that depends on the shape and size of the object and the density of air. When an object falls vertically through air, the drag force opposing the object's motion increases and the downward acceleration decreases. Eventually, the object reaches a terminal…
Mariana and Jun are both pushing on a box. Mariana pushes the box to the right and Jun pushes to the left. The box is on rollers and so is essentially frictionless with the floor, but Mariana and Jun do have friction with the floor. Jun is "winning" the pushing match and all three objects, Jun, the box, and Mariana are accelerating to the left. Consider the following forces: fm: the force of friction on Mariana f;: the force of friction on Jun FMB: the force of Mariana on the box FJB: the force of Jun on the box Which of the listed forces must be equal in magnitude and opposite in direction? Of; and FMB Mariana box Jun fm and FMB fm and fj no two of the four listed forces must be equal and opposite. FMB and FJB
You need to cross a river but you don't care where you land on the other side. Question 2 options: You will cross faster if you swim into the current so you do not drift. the fastest way across is to swim at an angle to the current You cannot change the rate you cross the river by swimming in any direction the fastest way to cross is to point straight across the river
in Monkey and hunter case . my doctor want me to write a 5 lines about what I have learned from this screenshot. ( The simulation shows the classic physics situation of a monkey and hunter. In this case, the hunter is trying to tranquilize the monkey, so the monkey can be relocated to a better habitat. The monkey is clever—when the tranquilizer dart (in blue) leaves the gun, the monkey (in purple) lets go of the tree branch, and starts to fall straight down. Note that there is a net (not shown) at the bottom to catch the monkey, so the monkey won't get hurt.)
Problem Find the particle's horizontal position x(t) and velocity v(x) at any point in a fluid whose drag force is expressed as Fdrag = kmv where, k is a constant, m is the mass of the particle and v is its velocity. Consider that the particle is initially traveling with a velocity v0. Solution: a) To solve for the position as a function of time x(t), we construct the net force in the x-axis as ∑F = -F_____ = m_____ Then: -m_____v = m_____ since: a = dv/dt then -m_____v = m_____ by integrating, we obtain the following expression: _____ = v0e_____ Further, employing the rules of integration results to the following expression for position as a function of time x= (v0/_____)( _____ - e _____ ) as t -> ∞ , the position becomes x = v0/k b) To solve for the velocity as a function of position v(x), we construct the net force in the x-axis as follows ∑F = -F _____= m_____ Then: -m_____v = m_____ since: a = dv/dt then -m_____v = m_____ We can eliminate time by expressing, the velocity…

e) Clearly, there is a force of gravity on the space station and everything inside of it. Yet, the apparent weight of an object aboard the space station is roughly zero, i.e. objects float around relative to the space station as if there is no force of gravity. Explain why objects at the space station appear "weightless", in 1 or 2 sentences. We talked about this in lecture. Nothing too complicated about this.
Topic: You find yourself trapped in the middle of a large frozen lake. Assume the ice has no friction. All you have on your is warm winter clothing and no way to call/signal for help. You can just barely see the shore in the distance. Use your physics knowledge of Newton's laws to help get you off the lake. Explain your reasoning.
