In a spaceship accelerating at g, far from Earth’s gravity, how does the motion of a dropped ball compare with the motion of a ball dropped at Earth’s surface?
Nonconservative Forces Work Done By Nonconservative Forces ● In the presence of non-conservative forces, the total mechanical energy is not conserved: ○ W totalW conservativnonconservative ○ W = − ΔU + W = ΔK total nc ○ W nc ΔK + ΔU = ΔE Examples ● What height H must we release the car if it just makes it around the circular loop of radius R ● A shot put (m = 7.26 kg) is shot at an angle of 43.4 degrees and released from a height of 1.82 m above ground level then it lands with a final velocity of 20m/s. It lands a horizontal distance of 17.7 m from the release point. With what speed does the shot put leave the thrower’s hand ● A block of mass
