WarmUp Exercise #5, 9/1  (Assignment Due 9/3)

On Friday we will be continuing our discussion of falling objects with linear and quadratic friction, and projectile motion with friction. 

We may or may not have highlighted some of these ideas in class already.

  1. Describe in your own words how we get v(t) and then x(t) for falling objects without friction (1-D).

  2. Describe in your own words how we get v(t) and then x(t) for falling objects with friction (1-D).

  3. What will change, and what will stay the same, when we consider 2-d projectile motion with a linear (v) resistive force?

  4. What will change and what will stay the same when we consider 2-d projectile motion with a quadratic (v2) resistive force?

Answer in the form below, a short answer for each is fine. 
This report is due by 8:00 am Friday morning.
