Textbook Question
Chapter 2, Problem 11P
Develop, debug, and test a program in either a high-level language or a macro language of your choice to compute the velocity of the falling parachutist as outlined in Example 1.2. Design the program so that it allows the user to input values for the drag coefficient and mass. Test the program by duplicating the results from Example 1.2. Repeat the computation but employ step sizes of 1 and 0.5 s. Compare your results with the analytical solution obtained previously in Example 1.1. Does a smaller step size make the results better or worse? Explain your results.

The transport theorem for vectors shows that the time derivative can be constructed from two parts: the first is an explicit frame-dependent change of the vector whereas the second is an active rotational change of the vector. The same holds true for tensors. Starting from the previous result, derive a version of transport theorem for tensors. [C] (^[T])[C] = dt d B dt B [T] + [WB/A]B[T] – TWB/A] (10 pt) (7pt)arrow_forward
