Problem 10E

Problem

Unless otherwise stated, in the following problems we assume that the gravitational force is constant with g = 9.81 m/sec2 in the MKS system and g = 32 ft/sec2 in the U.S. Customary System.

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 of gravity is constant, no change in momentum occurs on impact with the water, the buoyancy force is 1/2 the weight (weight = mg), and the force due to air resistance or water resistance is proportional to the velocity, with proportionality constant b1 = 10 N-sec/m in the air and b2 = 100 N-sec/m in the water. Find the equation of motion of the object. What is the velocity of the object 1 min after it is released?

Find the equation of motion of the object. What is the velocity of the object 1 min after it is released?

ANSWER:

Solution

Step 1

In this problem, we have to find the equation of motion of the object and then find the velocity of object after 1 min release.
