Chapter 5, Problem 13P

The velocity v of a falling parachutist is given by

v = g m c ( 1 e ( c / m ) t )

where g = 9.81  m/s 2 . For a parachutist with a drag coefficient c = 15 kg/s, compute the mass m so that the velocity is v = 36  m/s at  t = 10  s . Use the false-position method to determine m to a level of ε s = 0.1 % .

1. 2. Show that the following are not logically equivalent by finding a counterexample: (p^q) →r and (db) V (d←d) Show that the following is not a contradiction by finding a counterexample: (pV-q) AqA (pv¬q Vr) 3. Here is a purported proof that (pq) ^ (q → p) = F: (db) v (bd) = (db) v (bd) =(qVp) A (g→p) = (¬¬q V ¬p) ^ (q→ p) (db) V (db) = =¬(a→p)^(a→p) = (gp) ^¬(a → p) =F (a) Show that (pq) ^ (q→p) and F are not logically equivalent by finding a counterex- ample. (b) Identify the error(s) in this proof and justify why they are errors. Justify the other steps with their corresponding laws of propositional logic.
