A flat cushion of mass m is released from rest at thecorner of the roof of a building, at height h. A windblowing along the side of the building exerts a constant horizontalforce of magnitude F on the cushion as it drops as shownin the figure below. The air exerts no vertical force.
(A) Show that the path of the cushion is a straight line.(Submit a file with a maximum size of 1 MB.)
(B) Does the cushion fall with constant velocity?
(c) If m = 1.19 kg, h = 8.20m, and F = 2.12 N, how far from the building (inm) will the cushion hit the level ground?
(D) If the cushion is thrown downward with a nonzero speed atthe top of the building, what will be the shape of itstrajectory?
