a (20) 2. A basketball of mass m = 0.62 kg is dropped (with no intial velocity) from a height of 190 meters. Assume that the drag force due to air is proportional to the square of the speed, with Fp = 0.0135 v2 in magnitude. First give the direction of the Coriolis "force" on the ball just before it hits the ground, then estimate its magnitude and how far the ball has moved horizontally when it hits the ground, in two cases: a) The ball is dropped in Sydney, Australia, latitude 34° south.
