Chapter 2, Problem 2.34P

A particle is released from rest (y = 0) and falls under the influence of gravity and air resistance. Find the relationship between υ and the distance of falling y when the air resistance is equal to (a) αυ and (b) βυ2.

A balloon is rising from the earth's surface. The ascent velocity v, = 2 (m/s) is constant. The horizontal component of the speed of the balloon due to the wind is v, = 4y, where y is the height of the balloon from the ground. Find the drift distance in the horizontal direction when the balloon rises y = 40 (m). g = 10 (m/s²) A) 150 (m) В) 200 (m) С) 225 (m) D) 1600 (m) E) 960 (m)
Given P = 32 u, 90° N of E and R = 12 u, 45° N of E, find P - R in unit-vector form. Use the component method.
A 25-kg projectile is fired vertically upward from the ground. If the velocity is 35 m/s at 5 m above the ground, determine the maximum height (from the ground) in meters to which it will travel if: a. Atmospheric resistance is neglected b. Atmospheric resistance is measured as Fo = 8.01v? (in Newtons), where is the speed of the projectile at any instant, measured in m/s.
