If you stir the juice it increases the surface area.
Answer: apparent weighlessness.
Explanation:
1) Balance of forces on a person falling:
i) To answer this question we will deal with the assumption of non-drag force (abscence of air).
ii) When a person is dropped, and there is not air resistance, the only force acting on the person's body is the Earth's gravitational attraction (downward), which is the responsible for the gravitational acceleration (around 9.8 m/s²).
iii) Under that sceneraio, there is not normal force acting on the person (the normal force is the force that the floor or a chair exerts on a body to balance the gravitational force when the body is on it).
2) This is, the person does not feel a pressure upward, which is he/she does not feel the weight: freefalling is a situation of apparent weigthlessness.
3) True weightlessness is when the object is in a place where there exists not grativational acceleration: for example a point between two planes where the grativational forces are equal in magnitude but opposing in direction and so they cancel each other.
Therefore, you conclude that, assuming no air resistance, a person in this ride experiencing apparent weightlessness.
Answer:
the energy when it reaches the ground is equal to the energy when the spring is compressed.
Explanation:
For this comparison let's use the conservation of energy theorem.
Starting point. Compressed spring
Em₀ = K_e = ½ k x²
Final point. When the box hits the ground
Em_f = K = ½ m v²
since friction is zero, energy is conserved
Em₀ = Em_f
1 / 2k x² = ½ m v²
v =
x
Therefore, the energy when it reaches the ground is equal to the energy when the spring is compressed.
