- A skater of mass m = 60 kg is coasting along a smooth, level road with initial velocity v = given by: 3 m/s East. A sudden gust of wind exerts a time-varying force on him F(t) = ( 30 N) (1 – t) East | where t is measured in seconds. The gust of wind lasts from t = 0.0 to t = 2.0 seconds.

Unfortunately, due to skidding, neither accelerating nor braking has any effect on the speed! The driver manages to maintain steady straight direction of motion and the only impact is provided by the ice friction force, which is numerically equal to 4v² Newtons, where the velocity v of the car is measured in m/sec. (a) Using Newton's Second Law F = ma, set up a mathematical model for the position x(t) and velocity v(t) of the car as functions of time t. Start by drawing a diagram and choosing a consistent system of units based on kg, m, sec (1 ton = 1000 kg, 1 m/sec = 3.6 km/h, 1 N = 1 kg · m/sec²). Introduce and label the variables, show the units and write down the differential equations and the intial conditions. (b) Use the model in part a to calculate v(t) and x(t). Fully show the process of solving the initial value problems.

Assume that the force in Newtons due to air resistance is -28v where v is the velocity of the object in m/s. If it is initially dropped from a height of 800 meters, approximately how long will it take to reach the ground? Use x (t) as the distance below the point from where it was dropped.arrow_forward

(a) A motorboat is moving at a speed 10 m/s when its motor shuts and 10 s later the boat slows down to 5 m/s. The only force acting on the boat is the resistance of water and it is proportional dv to the velocity of the boat, = -ku, where k is a constant. Find the equation for the velocity dt of the boat and fix the constant k using v(10) = 5 condition.
