An object with mass m = 0.6 kg is dropped from the top of the building and falls 21 m down in front of the cafe.

1.1 Calculate the speed of the object as it hits the ground and calculate the time for the fall. Neglect in this question the air resistance.

In a more accurate calculation we need to take air resistance into account. In a wind tunnel the air resistance of the object has been measured giving rise to an acceleration of: aair = 0.03v2 where v is the speed of the object.

1.2 Now, taking air resistance into account, find the speed of the object as it hits the ground. Any integrals in your calculation should be calculated by hand!

1.3 Calculate the time of the fall when air resistance is taken into account. (You are allowed to use calculator to calculate occurring integrals when answering this question!)

A container with mass m kg is dropped by a helicopter from height h km at time t=0, with zero velocity. from the outset, its fall is controlled by gravity and the force of air resitance, f(v)= -kv, where v is the current velocity of the container. in t seconds after the drop, a parachute opens, resulting in an increase of air resistance up to f(v) = -kv. determine the time t at which the container touches the ground. and...

An object of mass 2 kg is released from rest from a platform 30 m above the water and allowed to fall under the influence of gravity. After the object strikes the water, it begins to sink with gravity pulling down and a buoyancy force pushing up. Assume that the force due to gravity (g = 9.81 m/s2) is constant, no change in momentum occurs on impact with the water, the buoyancy force is 1/2 the weight (weight=mg), and the...
