A balloon starts rising from the earth's...

A balloon starts rising from the earth's surface. The ascension rate is constant and equal to `v_(0)`. Due to the wind. The balloon gathers the horizontal velocity component `v_(x)=ky`, where k is a constnat and y is the height of ascent. Find how the following quantities depednd on the height of ascent.
(a) the horizontal drift of the balloon x (y)
(b) the total tangential and normal accelrations of the balloon.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
(a) `x=((a)/(2v_(0)))y^(2)` (b) `f_("total")=av_(0).f_("langetial")=(a^(2)v_(0)y)/(sqrt(v_(o)^(2)+a^(2)y^(2))),f_("normal")=(av_(o)^(2))/(sqrt(v_(o)^(2)+a^(2)y^(2)))`
