During the 400 m race in question 5, Callie is now in the homestretch. Assume that the density of the air is 1.2 kg/m, that Callie’s cross-sectional area is 0.5 m2, and that her coefficient of drag is 1.1. Her velocity is still 8 m/s, but she now has a 2 m/s tailwind. How large is the drag force acting on Callie now?

The terminal velocity of a raindrop that is 4.00 mm in diameter is approximately 8.50 m/s under controlled, windless conditions. The density of water is 1.00×103 kg/m3. Recall that the density of an object is its mass divided by its volume. If we model the air drag as being proportional to the square of the speed, Fdrag=cv2, what is the value of c?

When the puck reaches point “b”, it receives a instantaneous horizontal “kick “ in the direction as depicted by the heavy arrow. a) The main forces acting, after the “kick”, on the puck along the path you have chosen are: a.) The constant downward force due to gravity and the effect of air pressure. b.) The downward force of gravity and the horizontal force of momentum in the direction of motion. c.) The downward force of gravity and an upward force exerted on the puck by the table. d.)Gravity does not exert a force on the puck; it falls because of the intrinsic tendency of the object to fall to its natural place.arrow_forwardA 200 kg crate rests on a floor with carpet.
