If the mass is released from rest at x = b, its speed at x = 0 is given by v,= 2| f (x)dx 1. Compute vo by numerical Simpson's 1/3 and 3/8 integration and compare between them with different step size, using the data m = = 9.81 m/s?, 0.9 kg, b = 0.6 m, µ=0.3, k = 100 N/m, and garrow_forward3. Let's imagine that the earth is shrinking and we want to escape before it is too late. Let's set up some notation: R: the radius of Earth MẸ : the mass of Earth m: your mass G : the universal gravitational constant c: the speed of light Note that, since Earth is shrinking, R is not constant, but MẸ is constant (the values of ME, G and c are available on Wikipedia). In this question, we will compute the velocity needed to escape Earth and the radius of (shrunken) Earth for which even light cannot escape (when Earth becomes a black hole). In fact, all of the related formulae are well known and the purpose of this question is to justify our work using what we have learned in this course so far.
