A raindrop with a radius R= 1.2 mm falls from a cloud that is at height h = 1200 m above the ground. The drag coefficient C for the drop is 0.40. Assume that the drop is spherical throughout its fall. The density of water ρw is 1000 kg/m3, and the density of air ρa is 1.1 kg/m3. If you know that the raindrop reaches terminal speed after falling just a few meters. What is the terminal speed?
A box with with a mass m = 2kg is being pushed up a ramp by an unknown pushing force Fp. The coefficient of static friction between the box and interface is 0.7. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and interface is 0.6. The incline of the ramp is 15 degrees. The velocity of the box is constant. The surface of the ramp is 12 m.
What is Fp?
H.W: Two boxes are connected by a cord running over a pulley. The
coefficient of kinetic friction between m1 (5kg) and the table is 0.20. We ignore the
mass of the cord and pulley and any friction in the pulley, which means we can
assume that a force applied to one end of the cord will have the same magnitude at
the other end. We wish to find the acceleration, a, of the system, which will have the
same magnitude for both boxes assuming the cord doesn't stretch. As m2 (2Kg) move
down, mi move to the right.

- A dancer is standing on one leg on a drawbridge that is about to open. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the drawbridge and the dancer's foot are μs and μk, respectively. n⃗ represents the normal force exerted on the dancer by the bridge, and F⃗g represents the gravitational force exerted on the dancer, as shown in the drawing.(Figure 1). For all the questions, we can assume that the bridge is a perfectly flat surface and lacks the curvature characteristic of most bridges.
