If you are going to nitpick over the 'final' velocity, you should also take issue with: large truck and small car- my car is filled with lead and the truck evacuated, WTF? the sun causes tidal effects too we are not told in the final velocity problem how fast the helicopter is moving vertically; we don't have enough info to solve this problem. [/ QUOTE ] Very good points. |

Final velocity relative to what? [/ QUOTE ] right. i guess since it doesn't say, you can just answer anything you want AND IT CAN'T BE INCORRECT LOLOLOLLOOOLOL! |

[ QUOTE ] It doesn't say for what point in time you want the final velocity even though it mentions that it takes 10s to hit the water. [/ QUOTE ] no [censored]! but it becomes obvious as soon as you read "object takes 10 seconds to hit the water" AND NOTHING ELSE AFTER THAT. if the problem read: "an object takes 10 seconds to hit the water. the body of water is 1000 feet deep. assume constant density of xx. what is the final velocity of the object." then it damn sure would be zero. but that would be a pretty stupid question. [/ QUOTE ] So why even include 0m/s as one of the possible answers? |

I'd be shocked if an average 8th grader could pass that test. I got a C and was always good at science.

Final velocity relative to what? [/ QUOTE ] 0m/s relative to any other object near the earths surface also traveling at 100m/s in the same direction at that instant of time. |
