Aseaplane of total mass m lands on a lake with initial speed viî. the only horizontal force on it is a resistive force on its pontoons from the water. the resistive force is proportional to the velocity of the seaplane: r = −bv. newton's second law applied to the plane is −bvî = m(dv/dt)î. from the fundamental theorem of calculus, this differential equation implies that the speed changes according to

Apendulum has a mass of 1.5 kg and starts at a height of 0.4 m. if it is released from rest, how fast is it going when it reaches the lowest point of its path? acceleration due to gravity is g = 9.8 m/s2. a. 2.8 m/s b. 0 m/s c. 5.9 m/s d. 4.3 m/s

Animals respond in various ways to stimuli detected through their senses. some of these responses are stimulated by the presence of danger. which of these animal responses is the best example of a response to an immediate threat? a) a rooster crows every morning at the first sign of light. b) as something approaches an octopus, it shoots a cloud of ink. c) from late fall until spring, bears hibernate to preserve energy. reactivate d) a dog is getting hot in the sunlight, so he moves to a shaded area.
