A 560-g squirrel with a surface area of 930cm2 falls from a 5.0-m tree to the ground. Estimate its terminal velocity. (Use a dra
bija089 [108]

Explanation:

Terminal velocity is given by:

v_t=\sqrt{\frac{2mg}{\rho C_dA}}

Here, m is the mass of the falling object, g is the gravitational acceleration,  C_d is the drag coefficient, \rho is the fluid density through which the object is falling, and A is the projected area of the object. in this case the projected area is given by:

A=\frac{A_s}{2}=\frac{930cm^2}{2}=465cm^2\\465cm^2*\frac{1m^2}{10^4cm^2}=0.0465m^2\\560g*\frac{1kg}{10^3g}=0.56kg

Recall that drag coefficient for a horizontal skydiver is equal to 1 and air density is 1.28\frac{kg}{m^3}.

v_t=\sqrt{\frac{2(0.56kg)(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})}{(1.28\frac{kg}{m^3}(1)(0.0465m^2)}}\\v_t=13.58\frac{m}{s}

Without drag contribution the motion of the person is an uniformly accelerated motion, thus:

v_f^2=v_o^2+2gh\\v_f=\sqrt{2gh}\\v_f=\sqrt{2(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})(5m)}\\v_f=9.9\frac{m}{s}

6. A child tugs on a rope attached to a 0.62-kg toy with a horizontal force
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Force Mass * acceleration

F = ma

a = F/m

Sum of force = 16.3N - 15.8N = 0.5N

Mass = 0.62kg

Substitute

a = 0.5/ * 0.62

a = 0.81m/s²

The acceleration of the toy is 0.81m/s²

How does wood and plastic relate to forces
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

There are six kinds of forces that act on objects when they come into contact with one another: Normal force, applied force, frictional force, tension force, spring force and resisting force. These forces make objects change their motion or movement , the act of going from one place to another.

How to find the coefficient of kinetic friction on an incline?
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

An object slides down an inclined plane at a constant velocity if the net force on the object is zero. We can use this fact to measure the coefficient of kinetic friction between two objects.
