Randall D. Knight โ Dynamics II: Motion in a Plane: Problem 10
A golfer starts with the club over her head and swings it to reach maximum speed as it contacts the ball. Halfway through her swing, when the golf club is parallel to the ground, does the acceleration vector of the club head point (a) straight down, (b) parallel to the ground, approximately toward the golferโs shoulders, (c) approximately toward the golferโs feet, or (d) toward a point above the golferโs head? Explain.
๐ Solution Approach
Find: (a) straight down; (b) parallel to the ground; (c) approximately toward the golferโs feet
