Answer: a) 12857.1 m/s/s b) 578.6 N
Explanation:
Impulse = change in momentum
Ft = mV2 - mV1
V = AT, 45 / .0035 = 12857.1 m/s/s
(b) .045 x 12857.1 = 578.6 N
Answer:
w = 11.211 KN/m
Explanation:
Given:
diameter, d = 50 mm
F.S = 2
L = 3
Due to symmetry, we have:



To find the maximum intensity, w, let's take the Pcr formula, we have:

Let's take k = 1
Substituting figures, we have:

Solving for w, we have:

w = 11211.14 N/m = 11.211 KN/m
Since Area, A= pi * (0.05)²
. This means it is safe
The maximum intensity w = 11.211KN/m
Given Information:
Initial speed = u = 3.21 yards/s
Acceleration = α = 1.71 yards/s²
Final speed = v = 7.54 yards/s
Required Information:
Distance = s = ?
Answer:
Distance = s = 13.61
Explanation:
We are given the speeds and acceleration of the runner and we want to find out how much distance he covered before being tackled.
We know from the equations of motion,
v² = u² + 2αs
Where u is the initial speed of the runner, v is the final speed of the runner, α is the acceleration of the runner and s is the distance traveled by the runner.
Re-arranging the above equation for distance yields,
2αs = v² - u²
s = (v² - u²)/2α
s = (7.54² - 3.21²)/2×1.71
s = 46.55/3.42
s = 13.61 yards
Therefore, the runner traveled a distance of 13.61 yards before being tackled.
