Answer:
Fluid fricton goes to Static friction and sliding friction goes to rolling friction
Explanation:
The radius of the cylinder is equal to half the diameter:
The volume of the cylinder is given by:
where h is the heigth of the cylinder. Converting into meters,
And the density of the material will be given by the ratio between the mass and the volume:
The coordinate system should have the origin at the point where the feather is dropped and the downward direction is to be taken as positive.
All falling bodies experience acceleration towards the center of the Earth due to the force of gravitational attraction exerted on the object by the Earth. A feather, when dropped experiences an acceleration in the downward direction. Since the acceleration of the feather is in the downward direction, a feather, when dropped with zero initial velocity, has its velocity vector directed in the direction of its acceleration.
If the downward direction is taken as positive, the falling feather can be said to have a positive velocity and a positive acceleration.
