A 950-kg cylindrical can buoy floats vertically in seawater. The diameter of the buoy is 0.900 m. Calculate the additional distance the buoy will sink when an 80.0-kg man stands on top of it
THE DARK SIDE OF NEWTON’S LAWS ● Newton’s Law is so good that even before two objects hit, their precise motion after they hit can be calculated exactly ○ their future positions are already predetermined by their pasts ● it doesn’t matter how many atoms are involved ● “Newtonian theory weaves a deterministic plot where every sigh results from the inexorable confluence of physical law” ● everything we imagine, think, feel, say, or do is predetermined by the previous motions of our atoms ○ everything we WILL do is already predetermined by the previous motions of our atoms ● determinism
