    My guess is that it takes a shorter time to go from O to P than the one it takes to go from P to S.
    The reason is considering only the y-component , the ball starts with speed V0y up and decelerates with g + something (more than g) until it reaches 0, while on the way back it accelerates with g - something (less than g). Besides the speed might even stop at a terminal value, so if V0y is big enough, it's clear that the average speed from O to P is bigger than the one from P to S.

      I would argue that, although the average deceleration between O and P is somewhere above g and the average acceleration between P and S is definitely somewhere below g, the answer is not as clear-cut as it seems, since dVop is also larger than dVps. So it may well be possible for Top to be smaller/larger/equal to Tps depending on the values of C2 and Vy0. Please correct me if i am wrong!

      @jwills8606 4 года назад

      I believe they will be the same. The vertical component, which is the only part that matters vis á vis time, is entirely controlled by gravity once the object has its initial vertical upward velocity. There are no outside VERTICAL forces of any kind except for air drag, which at any given velocity will be the same going UP as it is at the same point going DOWN.

    • @bouipozz
      @bouipozz 4 года назад +2

      @@jwills8606 You're not entirely wrong... but it is gravity (accelleration) not velocity that is constant for both up and down directions. As Tarik has said above this accelleration (or decelleration) is acted on asymmetrically, causing the difference in time taken. You are right that the resistive force is proportional to velocity, but the velocity is determined by the accelleration (and time) and so it is in turn affected by the (asymmetrical) resistive force.

    Sir,
    I have some trouble understanding why it takes less time for the object too travel from O to P, than from P to S, Because when the object is traveling from P to S, it is accelerating due too gravity and the pathlength is shorter, wich makes me think the object encounters less air molecules, which reduces the airdrag. So what am i not getting here ?

    • @lecturesbywalterlewin.they9259
      @lecturesbywalterlewin.they9259  7 лет назад +13

      answer is correct - reasoning a bit strange
      >>>>the deacceleration is greater than the acceleration from P to S>>>>
      Correct reasoning:
      on the way up both gravity and air drag forces are downward,
      on the way down the net force down is the grav force minus the airdrag.
      Thus the slow down in speed in vertical direction is smaller on the way down than on the way up.
      Perhaps this is what you meant.

    I think that, by energy considerations,from O to P the mechanical state loses some K energy by air drag, and then even more for P to S. So, E(O,P) > E(P,S); an object with less energy is going to take more time to travel the same trayectory - taking into account only the y component. Thanks prof. Lewin, sorry if my english is bad.
    P.S. But i dont completely understand how the energy is conserved as whole... is correct to say that the mass in his trayectory is making the atoms in the medium vibrate? Therefore transfering his kinetic energy?

    • @carultch
      @carultch 2 года назад

      These equations assume buoyancy is either negligible, or is accounted for in another force. For most solids in air, or for steel balls in water, neglecting it is a reasonable assumption. If the densities are close, or if the object is positively buoyant, you'd have to account for the buoyant force as well.
      Archimedes principle only applies to fluid statics, when acceleration is zero. Dynamic buoyancy with acceleration involves what I like to call Atwood buoyancy, because it works like an inverted Atwood machine. The buoyant force replaces tension in the string, and the displaced fluid replaces the counterweight. The bottom of the container replaces the pulley.
      It gives the immersed object an effective weight of (m - rho*V)*g, and an effective inertia of (m + rho*V*g). The displaced fluid adds to its inertia, since it will accelerate in the opposite direction to fill the gaps as it moves. If you apply dynamic buoyancy to the viscous case he's solving at 26:44, you end up modifying the equation as follows:
      (m + rho*V)*a = (m - rho*V)*g - c1*r*v

It is because resistive force depends upon viscosity and pressure independently, that is both viscosity and pressure are not functions of one another, we have to deal with them independently, for example, viscosity of air is very less so that k₁v term is very close to zero, and therefore you are only left with k₂v².

    Sir, in the balloon example, we use only regime two to solve for the terminal velocity, however when we form an equation to solve for time it takes to arrive at terminal velocity, we also include regime 1 in the equation (hence making the differential equation more complicated). Why is that? Are we not operating in regime 2 only even before the balloon reaches the terminal velocity?

The reason I guess is, between O and P both Resistive fore and gravity are decelerating y component of velocity but between P and S, gravity is causing acceleration and the resistive force is decelerating. Since in P to S there is a assist in the direction of motion time of travel should be less.

      1/4 inch has the largest weight!
      grav force (weight) is proportional to R^3
      drag is prop to R^2, the upward force due to surface tension is also prop to R^2. Thus, as a general rule, the heavier the balls the faster they will "breakthrough".

      When I discuss throwing an object from a tower, I mention the mass, m and the force mg. That is accurate as long as the density of the object is >> density of air. Density of air is about 1 kg/m^3, Density of plastic is 1000 kg/m^3. Thus archimedes can be ignored for all objects except for balloons.

    • @xavierpoes4985
      @xavierpoes4985 6 лет назад

      When you place something on a scale, aren't you always taking into account the Archimedes force upwards, due to the air surrounding the object? hence having a resulting mass smaller than you would get in absence of air? so when you use the mass you obtain in such a read at a scale, for your experiment of letting the object fall on air, you never need to introduce the Archimedes force upwards, since it is already introduced within the lesser mass? irrespective to the fact that you are dealing with an iron ball or an helium balloon.

    • @xavierpoes4985
      @xavierpoes4985 6 лет назад

      I'm saying this because this is not just accurate as long as the density of the object is way bigger than the air's; I'd say it is always accurate no matter what, as long as the mass is measured on a scale surrounded by air, hence already taking into account Archimedes; and of course, the object is going to be used for the experiment in the same fluid which was previously weighed in.

    • @asthmen
      @asthmen 8 лет назад

      I would argue, professor, that the sign of the time difference from O to P and from P to S varies accordingly as v_{0_{x}} is greater, equal or less than v_{term.}. My reasoning is that the time from O to P depends on the vertical distance from O to P and on the average speed of the object from O to P (and similarly from P to S). As the vertical distance from O to P is the same as from P to S, then the time difference will depend on the average speed from O to P _versus_ the average speed from P to S. This in turn will depend on which of v_{0_{x}} or v_{term.} is greater. We have three cases :
      v_{0_{x}} > v_{term.}, in which case t_{OP} < t_{PS},
      v_{0_{x}} = v_{term.}, in which case t_{OP} = t_{PS},
      and v_{0_{x}} < v_{term.}, in which case t_{OP} > t_{PS}.
      Is this valid, or is the average speed not proportional to the initial/final speed ?

    • @lecturesbywalterlewin.they9259
      @lecturesbywalterlewin.they9259  8 лет назад +2

      On the way from O to P the acceleration downward in the vertical direction is larger than g. On the way from P to S the acceleration downward in the vertical direction is smaller than g because the air drag component flips over at P. Thus it takes less time to go from O to P than from P to S.
