Chapter 9, Problem 24P
In February 1955, a paratrooper fell 370 m from an airplane without being able to open his chute but happened to land in snow, suffering only minor injuries. Assume that his speed at impact was 56 m/s (terminal speed), that his mass (including gear) was 85 kg, and that the magnitude of the force on him from the snow was at the survivable limit of 1.2 × 105 N. What are (a) the minimum depth of snow that would have stopped him safely and (b) the magnitude of the impulse on him from the snow?

- It is autumn. You look outside a window and see a maple leaf falling face down, in a straight vertical line. You estimate the speed of the leaf to be 25.77 cm/s. You then pick up the leaf and do measurements. It has a mass of 2.76 g and a cross sectional area of 76 square cm. You measure the density of air to be 1.298 kg m-³. What is the drag coefficient between the leaf and the air?

- Like friction, drag force opposes the motion of a particle in a fluid; however, drag force depends on the particle's velocity. Find the expression for the particle's velocity v(x) as a function of position at any point x in a fluid whose drag force is expressed as Fdrag = kmv where k is a constant, m is the mass of the particle and v is its velocity. Assume that the particle is constrained to move in the x-axis only with an initial velocity v0. Solution: The net force along the x-axis is: ΣF = -F = m then: -mv = m Since acceleration is the first time derivative of velocity a = dv/dt, -mv = m We can eliminate time dt by expressing, the velocity on the left side of the equation as v = dx/dt. Manipulating the variables and simplifying, we arrive at the following expression / = -k "Isolating" the infinitesimal velocity dx and integrating with respect to dx, we arrive at the following: = v0 - which shows that velocity decreases in a linear manner.arrow_forwardPlease answer the question and its subquestions entirely!

A strong wind, travelling at a speed of 8.9 m/s blows past, causing the ball to hang at a nonzero angle with the vertical. Determine the angle that the ball will make with the vertical when it is in static equilibrium.

If the air resistive force was F = -kmv, what was the value of k?arrow_forwardA 70 kg bicyclist is riding her 15 kg bicycle downhill on a road with a slope of 80without pedaling or braking. The bicyclist has a frontal area of 0.45 m2and a dragcoefficient of 1.1 in the upright position, and a frontal area of 0.4 m2and a dragcoefficient of 0.9 in a racing position. If the downhill speed of the bicyclist(terminal velocity) can be determined when the total force acting on the “body” inthe direction of movement is equal to zero, determine the percentage of downspeed that she can be increased when she is in a racing position. Air temperatureis 150C and disregarding the rolling resistance and friction at the bearing.arrow_forwardKayaking is a great example of multiple drag forces. Where a person has to deal with currents in the water and air to propel themselves forward. In this problem, the water is moving at a velocity of 1.7 m/s directly in the direction you are trying to row. When considering this water, the area in contact with the water is .05 m^2, the drag coefficient is 1.02 with normal water density. You are moving at a velocity of 3 m/s, while the air is blowing against you with a velocity of 2.7 m/s (head wind). For the air, you have an area in contact of .5 m^2, and a drag coefficient of 1.75. Normal air density is present. In order to accomplish your time goal, you need a net force propelling you downstream of 175 newtons, how much force are you applying with the paddle to achieve this goal?arrow_forward
