Get started for freeSuppose you attempt to pour out 100 g of salt, using a pan balance for measurements, while in a rocket accelerating upward. Will the quantity of salt be too much, too little, or the correct amount? Explain
It shows an accelerometer, a device for measuring the horizontal acceleration of cars and airplanes. A ball is free to roll on a parabolic rack described by the equation, where both and are in meters. A scale along the bottom is used to measure the ball's horizontal position.
a. Find an expression that allows you to use a measured position to compute the acceleration. (For example, is a possible expression.)
b. What is the acceleration if
Given free body diagram :
a. Write a realistic dynamics problem for which this is the correct free-body diagram. Your problem should ask a question that can be answered with a value of position or velocity (such as “How far?” or “How fast?”), and should give sufficient information to allow a solution.
b. Solve your problem!
Boxes A and B in FIGURE Q6.13 both remain at rest. Is the friction force on A larger than, smaller than, or equal to the friction force on B? Explain
A spaceship is at rest in deep space. Its thrusters provide a force of The spaceship fires its thrusters for s, then coasts for km. How long does it take the spaceship to coast this distance?
