... right. An observer on the shore sees the projectile motion as in figure 33.4(a). The observed motion of the projectile is the same as in figure 33.2(b), but now the observer on the shore sees the rock fall into the water behind the boat rather than back onto the same point on the boat from which the ...

... Physicists have always recognized the appeal of a purely relational theory of motion, but every such theory has foundered on the same problem, namely, the physicality of acceleration. For example, one of Newton’s greatest challenges was to account for the fact that the Moon is relationally stationa ...

Physics Mechanics Midterm Review w/ Solutions
... The current in a river is 1.0 m/s. A woman swims 300 m downstream and then back to her starting point without stopping. If she can swim 2.0 m/s in still water, find the time of the round trip. Solution: We need to find the velocity of the woman relative to the shore for each part of the swim. Let do ...

... The combination of Figs (a) and (b) yields the actual rolling motion of the wheel, Fig. (c). The portion of the wheel at the bottom (at point P) is stationary and the portion of the wheel at the top (at point T ) is moving at speed 2vcom , faster than any other portion of the wheel. The motion of an ...

... Momentum Consider a Mack truck and a roller skate moving down the street at the same speed. The considerably greater mass of the Mack truck gives it a considerably greater momentum. If the Mack truck were at rest, which would have the greater momentum? If an object is at rest, the momentum of that ...
