Chapter 1, Problem 22Q

(Indicates a review question, which means it requires only a basic understanding of the material to answer. Questions without this designation typically require integrating or extending the concepts presented thus far.)

. In Figure 1.19, arrows show the directions of the velocity and the acceleration of a hall moving in a circle. Make a similar sketch showing these directions for a car (a) speeding up from a stop sign and (h) slowing down as it approaches a stop sign.

Suppose a toy boat moves in a pool at at a speed given by v=1.0 meter per second at t=0, and that the boat is subject to viscous damping. The damping on the boat causes the rate of speed loss to be given by the expression dv/dt=-2v. How fast will the boat be traveling after 1 second? 3 seconds? 10 seconds? Use separation of variables to solve this.
What functional form do you expect to describe the motion of a vibrating membrane without damping and why?
If speed is tripled, how much larger will air drag become for an object? Show the math.
