    Solving Projectile Motion in Fluid: How Far Will It Go?

    I have tried all these suggestions and have just had arithmetic problems could u please clarify what u mean with steps? You can assume you know both the mass and shape of the object (rectangular in nature) and since you have both the initial velocity and final velocity it seems like there must...

    Modeling Deceleration of Object Towed in Water

    Hello dave, I am allowed to make assumptions obviously. The object is rectangular in nature. My issue is that the water resistance force is variable as it is dependent on the velocity of the object and the object is decelerating. So how could one find the distance X the object travels before...

    Modeling Deceleration of Object Towed in Water

    So this is about a modelling project I'm doing. If you have an object that was being towed in water and the towing force is suddenly removed. There is a force F=1/2(density of fluid)(C constant)(A)V^2 that acts on the object. I am trying to find the distance X it will take for the object to...

    Calculating Iceberg Melting Rate

    So I'm trying to model the process of towing an iceberg from Antarctica to elsewhere to use for fresh water. I hit a dead end trying to find how much of the iceberg would be left. I know it takes 333 J/g to melt ice and the mass of the iceberg is 7 million tons so i know how much energy it...
