PROBLEM:
A ball with mass 0.15 kg is thrown upward with initial velocity velocity 20 m/s from the roof of a building 30 m high. Neglect air resistance.
Assume that the conditions are the same as the above except that there is a force due to air resistance of magnitude |v| / 30 directed opposite to the velocity, where the velocity v is measured in m/s.
a. Find the maximum height above the ground that the ball reaches.
b. Find the time that the ball hits the ground.
c. Plot the graphs of velocity and position versus time.
*** If possible, please solve for part b using the graphing calculator? Thank you.
In the winter sport of bobsledding, athletes push their sled along a horizontal ice surface and then hop on the sled as it starts to careen down the steeply sloped track. In one event, the sled reaches a top speed of 9.2 m/s before starting down the initial part of the track, which is sloped downward at an angle of 6.0°. What is the sled’s speed after it has traveled the first 100 m?
A man pushes an object to the right and exerts a force which has a horizontal compotent of F = 33 N. A horizontal frictional force has a magnitude of f = 15 N which opposed the horizontal component of the fushing force. The mass of the object is m = 31 kg.
Write an expression for the magnitude of the acceleration of the object.
If the object starts at rest what is the speed in meters per second at t = 2.00s?
If the man stops pushing the object at t = 2.00s and the firctional force is constant what is the distance in meters does to object slide before coming to a rest?
