For a projectile launched from the vertically from the surface the earth with initial velocity v0, the velocity of the projectil

e when at distance r from the center of the earth satisifes the equation:
v^2 = v0^2 + k^2(1/r - 1/R)

Answer:

(dr/dt) = √(v₀² + k²/r - k²/R)

Explanation:

v² = v₀² + k²[(1/r) - (1/R)]

v = velocity of Body launched from the surface of the earth

v = initial velocity of body

k = a constant

r = distance from the centre of the earth

R = radius of the earth

v² = v₀² + k²/r - k²/R

v = √(v₀² + k²/r - k²/R)

But v = dr/dt

(dr/dt) = √(v₀² + k²/r - k²/R)

(dr/√(v₀² + k²/r - k²/R)) = dt

To go one step beyond and integrate the differential equation

∫ (dr/√(v₀² + k²/r - k²/R)) = ∫ dt

Integrating the left hand side from 0 to r and the right hand side from 0 to t

Note, v₀, k and R are all constants

(- 4r²/k²)[√(v₀² + k²/r - k²/R)] = t

√(v₀² + k²/r - k²/R) = (- k² t/4r²)

(v₀² + k²/r - k²/R) = (- k² t/4r²)²

(v₀² + k²/r - k²/R) = (k⁴t²/16r⁴)

(k⁴t²/16r⁴) + (k²/r) = [v₀² - (k²/R)]

k² [(k²t²/16r⁴) + (1/r)] = [v₀² - (k²/R)]

[(k²t²/16r⁴) + (1/r)] = [(v₀²/k²) - (1/R)]

A person throws a balloon straight down above level ground. The balloon bounces back up into the air. Drag force is significant
love history [14]

Explanation:

   a) Balloon is being thrown down and is speeding up;

           mg > F_drag

  b) Balloon is in the air on its way down and moving with constant speed.

           F_drag =mg

  c) The Balloon is on the ground and rest instantaneously

           mg = Normal

  d) Balloon is moving slowly downward;

   e) Because, at the peak of trajectory drag force  is 0.

             Drag force = 0
