Resuelva el siguiente problema del texto "Process Modeling, Simulation and Control for
Chemical Engineers"
1. Charlie Brown and Snoopy are sledding down a hill that is inclined degrees from
horizontal. The total weight of Charlie, Snoopy, and the sled is M. The sled is
essentially frictionless but the air resistance of the sledders is proportional to the square
of their velocity. Write the equations describing their position x, relative to the top of
the hill (x = 0). Charlie likes to belly op, so their initial velocity at the top of the
hill is v
0
:
What would happen if Snoopy jumped o the sled halfway down the hill without changing
the air resistance?
