You are on the ferry from Seattle to Bremerton. As you stand on the rear outside deck watching the receding Seattle skyline, the ferry travels at a constant velocity. While leaning over the rail, you accidentally drop an apple. Neglect air resistance. Describe the path of the falling apple as seen by: a. You b. A seal relaxing on a nearby anchored (stationary) boat. Explain your answer for both parts.

We want to find the coefficient of restitution e between the ball and the floor. We will be able to measure the time of flight between subsequent bounces, but not the velocities before and after each impact. Question 1 a. Using the kinematics equation for position, find a relationship between the time of flight tn and the velocity of the ball after the nth bounce. You should obtain a quadratic equation that has two solutions for the time tm, but only one of them represents the time of flight. b. Using the kinematics equation for velocity and the relationship determined in the previous step, find the relationship between the velocity right after the nth bounce and the velocity right before the (n +1)th bounce? c. Given your answers to the previous parts of this question and the definition of €, find the coefficient of restitution e in terms of the subsequent times of flight tn and tr+1.

Dynamics Help! If a baseball player throws a ball a horizontal distance of 100 m in 4 seconds at 45° latitude, by how much is it deflected laterally if he throws toward the east? a) Starting from the appropriate component either du/dt, dv/dt, or dw/dt find an expression for v (no numbers just the variables) b) Find an expression for y (again no numbers, find the equation c) Calculate the actual meridional deflection using the appropriate numbers given in the problem and explain or describe in words what this number means (specific direction)
