Chapter , Problem 15(choose chapter or problem)
If you gently set a fancy plate on the table, it will not break. However if you drop it from a height, it might very well break. Discuss the forces that act on the plate (as it contacts the table) in both these situations. Use kinematics and Newtons second law to describe what is different about the second situation that causes the plate to break?
