Answer:

The duration of the impact is 0.005384 seconds

Explanation:

Given

m = 0.43 kg

v = 5.2 m/s

x = 0.014 m

Knowing the formulas

v^{2}_{f} = v^{2}_{i} + 2ax\\0 = 5.2^{2}  + 2a*0.014\\a = - 965.71 m/s^{2} \\\\vf = vi + at\\0 = 5.2 + (965.71)t\\t = 0.005384 s

Answer:

5.385×10⁻³

Explanation:

First we find the acceleration

Using the equation of motion,

v² = u²+2as........................ Equation 1

Where v = Final velocity, u = initial velocity, a = acceleration, s = distance.

make a the subject of the equation,

a = (v²-u²)/2s................. Equation 2

Given: v = 0 m/s (comes to rest), u = 5.2 m/s, s = 0.014 m

Substitute into equation 2

a = (0²-5.2²)/(2×0.014)

a = -27.04/0.028

a = -965.71 m/s²

Finally Using

a = (v-u)/t

where t = Duration of impact

make t the subject of the equation

t = (v-u)/a.................... Equation 3

Given: v = 0 m/s, u = 5.2 m/s, a = -965.71 m/s²

Substitute into equation 3

t = (0-5.2)/-965.71

t = -5.2/-965.71

t = 5.385×10⁻³ s.

Hence the duration of impact =  5.385×10⁻³

Define orbital velocity
sveta [45]

the Orbital Velocity is the velocity sufficient to cause a natural or artificial satellite to remain in orbit. Inertia of the moving body tends to make it move on in a straight line, while gravitational force tends to pull it down. The orbital path, elliptical or circular, representing a balance between gravity and inertia, and it follows a rue that states that the more massive the body at the centre of attraction is, the higher is the orbital velocity for a particular altitude or distance.
