The body is resisting the stopping motion; it wants to continue moving based on Newton's laws.

Newton's law applies here because an object in motion (your body) stays the speed that you were going, so if you were hit, your body would keep going when the car is stopped. This causes your body (especially your neck) to whip back and possible break.

A ball is dropped from a boat so that it strikes the surface of a lake with a speed of 16.5 ft/s. While in the water, the ball e

The initial velocity is
v(0) = 16.5 ft/s

While in the water, the acceleration is
a(t) = 10 - 0.\frac{dv}{dt} =10-0.8v \\\\  \frac{dv}{10-0.8v}=dt \\\\ \int_{16.5}^{v} \,  \frac{dv}{10-0.8v}  = \int_{0}^{t} dt \\\\ - \frac{1}{0.8} [ln(10-0.8v)]_{16.5}^{v}=t \\\\ ln \frac{10-0.8v}{-3.2}=-0.8t \\\\  \frac{0.8v -10}{3.2}  =e^{-0.8t} \\\\ 0.8v = 10 + 3.2e^{-0.8t} \\\\ v=12.5+4e^{-0.08t}

The velocity function is
v(t)=12.5+4e^{-0.8t}
It satisfies the condition that v(0) = 16.5 ft/s.
When t = 5.7s, obtain
v(5.7)=12.5+4e^{-0.8\times5.7} = 12.54 \, ft/s

The depth of the lake is
d=\int_{0}^{5.7} \, (12.5+4e^{-0.8t})dt \\\\ = 12.5(5.7)+ \frac{4}{(-0.8)}[e^{-0.8t}]_{0}^{5.7} \\\\ =71.25-5(0.0105-1) =76.198 \, ft

Answer:
The velocity at the bottom of the lake is 12.5 ft/s
The depth of the lake is 76.2 ft
