The viscous force on an object moving through air is proportional to its velocity.
The only forces acting on an object when falling are air resistance and its weight itself. The weight acts vertically downwards whereas air resistance acts vertically upward.
Let F be the viscous force due to air molecules, B be buoyant force due to air and W be the weight of falling object. Initially, the velocity of falling object and hence the viscous force F is zero and the object is accelerated due to force
(W-B). Because of the acceleration the velocity increases and accordingly the viscous force also increases. At a certain instant, the viscous force becomes equal to W-B. The net force then becomes zero and the object falls with constant velocity. This constant velocity is called terminal velocity.
Thus at terminal velocity, air resistance and force of gravity becomes equal.
Answer:
the branch of mechanics concerned with the motion of objects without reference to the forces which cause the motion.

Kinematics is the study of motion of a system of bodies without directly considering the forces or potential fields affecting the motion. In other words, kinematics examines how the momentum and energy are shared among interacting bodies.
Answer: hello question b is incomplete attached below is the missing question
a) attached below
b) V = 0.336 ft/s
Explanation:
Elongation ( Xo) = 16/ 7 feet
mass attached to 4-foot spring = 16 pounds
medium has 9/2 times instanteous velocity
<u>a) Find the equation of motion if the mass is initially released from the equilibrium position with a downward velocity of 2 ft/s</u>
The motion is an underdamped motion because the value of β < Wo
Wo = 3.741 s^-1
attached below is a detailed solution of the question
In order to find the our own velocity with respect to land,we need to apply the theory of relative velocity.
Now consider the velocity of the ship traveling towards the north with respect to land as A.Consider our own velocity headed northwards as B.
The relative velocity is the velocity that the body A would appear to an observer on the body B and vice versa.
In this case the relative velocity would be arrived by summing up our velocity with the velocity of the ship as the object (I) is travelling in the ship.
Relative velocity = Velocity of Body A+ Velocity of Body B.
Velocity of the ship traveling towards the north with respect to land(A)= 13.0m/s. (Given)
Our own velocity headed northwards(B)= 2.8 m/s.
Relative velocity = Velocity of Body A+ Velocity of Body B.
Relative velocity= 13.0 + 2.8 = 15.8m/s.
Thus our own velocity with respect to the land is 15.8 m/s.
