To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Kinetic Energy, specifically, since it is a body with angular movement, the kinetic rotational energy. Recall that kinetic energy is defined as the work necessary to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to the indicated speed.
Mathematically it can be expressed as,
Where
I = Moment of Inertia
Angular velocity
Our values are given as
A revolution is made every 4.4 seconds.
If the angular velocity is equivalent to the displacement over the time it takes to perform it then
Replacing at our previous equation we have,
Therefore the kinetic energy is equal to
Answer:
d = 0.38 m
Explanation:
As we know that the person due to the airbag action, comes to a complete stop, in 36 msec or less, and during this time, is decelerated at a constant rate of 60 g, we can find the initial velocity (when airbag starts to work), as follows:
vf = v₀ -a*t
If vf = 0, we can solve for v₀:
v₀ = a*t = 60*9.8 m/s²*36*10⁻³s = 21.2 m/s
With the values of v₀, a and t, we can find Δx, applying any kinematic equation that relates all of some of these parameters with the displacement.
Just for simplicity, we can use the following equation:
where vf=0, v₀ =21.2 m/s and a= -588 m/s².
Solving for d:
⇒ d = 0.38 m
