A 1 900-kg pile driver is used to drive a steel I-beam into the ground. The pile driver falls 4.00 m before coming into contact

with the top of the beam, and it drives the beam 15.8 cm farther into the ground before coming to rest. Using energy considerations, calculate the average force the beam exerts on the pile driver while the pile driver is brought to rest.

Answer:

471392.4 N

Explanation:

From the question,

Just before contact with the beam,

mgh = Fd.................... Equation 1

Where m = mass of the beam, g = acceleration due to gravity, h = height. F =  average Force on the beam, d = distance.

make f the subject of the equation

F = mgh/d................ Equation 2

Given: m = 1900 kg, h = 4 m, d = 15.8 = 0.158 m

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute into equation 2

F = 1900(4)(9.8)/0.158

F = 471392.4 N

A bus travels with an average velocity of 60 km per hour. how long does it take to cover a distance of 500km?
sergeinik [125]
V = 60km/h
S=500km
t = ?
v = S/t
t = S/v
t = 500km / 60 km/h
t ≈ 8,33 h

An object thrown vertically upward from the surface of a celestial body at a velocity of 36 ​m/s reaches a height of sequalsminu
Anarel [89]

Answer:

v = -1.8t+36

20 seconds

360 m

40 seconds

36 m/s

The object speed will increase when it is coming down from its highest height.

Explanation:

s=-0.9t^2+36t

Differentiating with respect to time we get

\frac{ds}{dt}=-1.8t+36\\\Rightarrow v=-1.8t+36

a) Velocity of the object after t seconds is v = -1.8t+36

At the highest point v will be 0

0=-1.8t+36\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{-36}{-1.8}\\\Rightarrow t=20\ s

b) The object will reach the highest point after 20 seconds

s=-0.9t^2+36t\\\Rightarrow s=-0.9\times 20^2+36\times 20\\\Rightarrow s=360\ m

c) Highest point the object will reach is 360 m

s=-0.9t^2+36t\\\Rightarrow 360=-0.9t^2+36t\\\Rightarrow -0.9t^2+36t-360=0\\\Rightarrow -9t^2+360t-3600=0

\frac{-360\pm \sqrt{0}}{2\left(-9\right)}\\\Rightarrow t=20\ s

d) Time taken to strike the ground would be 20+20 = 40 seconds

[tex]v=u+at\\\Rightarrow v=0+0.9\times 2\times 20\\\Rightarrow v=36\ m/s

Acceleration will be taken as positive because the object is going down. Hence, the sign changes. 2 is multiplied because the expression is given in the form of s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

e) The velocity with which the object strikes the ground will be 36 m/s

f) The speed will increase when the object has gone up and for 20 seconds and falls down for 20 seconds. The object speed will increase when it is coming down from its highest height.
