A hot air balloon begins to rise from rest. The lift on the balloon due to the buoyant force is 5000 N. a) If the total mass of the balloon and everything that it is lifting is 500 kg, then what is the acceleration of the balloon? After rising 10 m, a passenger in the balloon realizes that they forgot their cell phone on the ground and jumps out of the balloon because of separation anxiety. b) What is the acceleration of the balloon after the 70 kg passenger jumps out? c) Supposing that the passenger jumps horizontally, what is the initial velocity of the passenger in the vertical direction at the time of the jump? (It should be the same as the velocity of the balloon at this time.)

You blow a small piece of paper through the air. Is the force on the paper a contact force or a field force? Explain.
An inflated spherical beach ball with a radius of 0.3573 m and average density of 10.65 kg/m3 is being held under water in a pool by Janelle. The density of the water in the pool is 1000.0 kg/m3. When Janelle releases the ball, it begins to rise to the surface. If the drag coefficient of the ball in the water is 0.470 and the constant upward force on the ball is 1875 N, what will be the terminal speed of the ball as it rises? Ignore the effects of gravity on the ball.
You are part of a team in an engineering class that is working on a scale model of a new design for a life vest. You have been asked to find the mass of a piece of foam that will be used for flotation. Because the piece is too bulky to fit on your balance, you break it into two parts. You measure the mass of the first part as 128.3 0.3 g and the second part as 77.0 0.3 g. a. What are the maximum and minimum values for the total mass you might reasonably report? b. What is the best estimate for the total mass of the foam? Hint: Propagation of uncertainty is described in Appendix A.

As seen in the picture, an airboat is a special type of boat that has a large fan mounted on the back instead of a motor that sits in the water. It is used in places where the water is shallow and weedy, so motors that stick down into the water cannot be used. a) Using Newton’s Third Law, explain why the fan needs to be pointed so the air blows out backwards. b) If the force of the fan pushes the air backwards with 150 N, what is the forward force of the air on the boat? If the mass of the boat is 220 kg, and you ignore friction between the boat and the water, find how far the boat will travel in the first minute. c) How can the fan on the airboat be used to change the direction the boat is travelling in? How can it be used to increase or decrease the speed of the boat? d) If the boat is going upstream against a current that has a force of 250 N against the motion of the boat, find the acceleration of the boat if there is a forward force of 360 N from the fan.
