A model ship is towed in a test basin at a speed of 20 in./s when the tow rope is released at time t = 0. Due to hydrodynamic resistance, the ensuing acceleration of the ship is a = -(v^2/10) in./s^2, where v is the speed in in./s. Use numerical integration to determine the time when the speed of the ship is reduced to 10 in./s. Compare the answer to the analytical solution t = 0.5 s.

A mass of 1.25kg stretches a spring 0.05m. The mass is in a medium that exerts a viscous resistance of 192N when the mass has a velocity of 6m/s. The viscous resistance is proportional to the speed of the object. Suppose the object is displaced an additional 0.06m and released. Find a function u(t) to express the object's displacement from the spring's natural position, in m after t seconds. Let positive displacements indicate a stretched spring, and use 9.8m/s^2 as...
5. In certain circumstances, we can model the velocity of a falling mass subject to air resistance as - dv m7 = mg – kv?, where v (t) is the velocity of the object, m is the mass of the object, g is acceleration due to gravity, and k is a constant of proportionality. Assume the positive direction is downward. (a) Solve this equation subect to the initial condition v (0) = vo. (b) What is the terminal velocity of...

12. The height and speed of a projectile (such as a thrown ball) launched with a speed of \(v_{0}\) at an angle \(A\) to the horizontal are given by$$ \begin{array}{c} h(t)=v_{0} t \sin A-0.5 g t^{2} \\ v(t)=\sqrt{v_{0}^{2}-2 v_{0} g t \sin A+g^{2} t^{2}} \end{array} $$where \(g\) is the acceleration due to gravity. The projectile will strike the ground when \(h(t)=0\), which gives the time to hit \(t_{\text {hit }}=2\left(v_{0} / g\right) \sin A\). Suppose that \(A=30^{\circ}, v_{0}=40 \mathrm{~m} /...

A wildebeest calf is cruising at its top speed of v = 10 m/s when it passes over a sleeping cheetah. By the time the cheetah stands up and begins pursuit, the wildebeest is d = 7.0m ahead of the cheetah. If the cheetah is able to maintain a constant acceleration of a = 9.5 m/s2 until it catches the wilde-beast, then how much time t must pass before the cheetah catches up to the wildebeest? (Hint: you will need...
