Answer:
a.) F = 3515 N
b.) F = 140600 N
Explanation: given that the
Mass M = 74kg
Initial velocity U = 7.6 m/s
Time t = 0.16 s
Force F = change in momentum ÷ time
F = (74×7.6)/0.16
F = 3515 N
b.) If Logan had hit the concrete wall moving at the same speed, his momentum would have been reduced to zero in 0.0080 seconds
Change in momentum = 74×7.6 + 74×7.6
Change in momentum = 562.4 + 562.4 = 1124.8 kgm/s
F = 1124.8/0.0080 = 140600 N
Answer:
Explanation:
Given that,
Height of the bridge is 20m
Initial before he throws the rock
The height is hi = 20 m
Then, final height hitting the water
hf = 0 m
Initial speed the rock is throw
Vi = 15m/s
The final speed at which the rock hits the water
Vf = 24.8 m/s
Using conservation of energy given by the question hint
Ki + Ui = Kf + Uf
Where
Ki is initial kinetic energy
Ui is initial potential energy
Kf is final kinetic energy
Uf is final potential energy
Then,
Ki + Ui = Kf + Uf
Where
Ei = Ki + Ui
Where Ei is initial energy
Ei = ½mVi² + m•g•hi
Ei = ½m × 15² + m × 9.8 × 20
Ei = 112.5m + 196m
Ei = 308.5m J
Now,
Ef = Kf + Uf
Ef = ½mVf² + m•g•hf
Ef = ½m × 24.8² + m × 9.8 × 0
Ef = 307.52m + 0
Ef = 307.52m J
Since Ef ≈ Ei, then the rock thrown from the tip of a bridge is independent of the direction of throw
In this system we have the conservation of angular momentum: L₁ = L₂
We can write L = m·r²·ω
Therefore, we will have:
m₁ · r₁² · ω₁ = m₂ · r₂² · ω₂
The mass stays constant, therefore it cancels out, and we can solve for ω<span>₂:
</span>ω₂ = (r₁/ r₂)² · ω<span>₁
Since we know that r</span>₁ = 4r<span>₂, we get:
</span>ω₂ = (4)² · ω<span>₁
= 16 </span>· ω<span>₁
Hence, the protostar will be rotating 16 </span><span>times faster.</span>
