InfoMall Homework #6 -Printed only (10 points)

Spring, 1998

Due 2/3/98

IFHW6:

Using the InfoMall

Two Dimensional Kinematics and Dynamics -

Print your answer, in three parts, to hand in on Tuesday, February 3^rd, at
the beginning of class:

So far you have been studying the use of Newton's Second Law in one
dimension. Use the InfoMallto learn more about a describing motion in two or
three dimensions. Look up motion in two dimensions in a calculus-based textbook
on the InfoMalland read about how such motion is described.

• (a) (4 pts) Summarize the way the two dimensional motion and Newton's Second
  Law is described at a calculus level. Give the citation from the InfoMall.

• (b) (3 pts) Explain what makes projectile motiona special case of planar
  motion and describe this kind of motion, giving the equations of motion.
  Give the complete citations for the three books that you used to complete this
  task.

• (c) (3 pts) Explain what makes uniform circular motiona special case of
  planar motion and describe this kind of motion, giving the equations of
  motion. Give the complete citations for the three books that you used to
  complete this task.
