Answer:
31677.2 lb
Explanation:
mass of hammer (m) = 3.7 lb
initial velocity (u) = 5.8 ft/s
final velocity (v) = 0
time (t) = 0.00068 s
acceleration due to gravity (g) 32 ft/s^{2}
force = m x ( a + g )
where
- m is the mass = 3.7 lb
- g is the acceleration due to gravity = 32 ft/s^{2}
- a is the acceleration of the hammer
from v = u + at
a = (v-u)/ t
a = (0-5.8)/0.00068 = -8529.4 ( the negative sign showa the its decelerating)
we can substitute all required values into force= m x (a+g)
force = 3.7 x (8529.4 + 32) = 31677.2 lb
The gravitational force <em>F</em> between two masses <em>M</em> and <em>m</em> a distance <em>r</em> apart is
<em>F</em> = <em>G M m</em> / <em>r</em> ²
Decrease the distance by a factor of 7 by replacing <em>r</em> with <em>r</em> / 7, and decrease both masses by a factor of 8 by replacing <em>M</em> and <em>m</em> with <em>M</em> / 8 and <em>m</em> / 8, respectively. Then the new force <em>F*</em> is
<em>F*</em> = <em>G </em>(<em>M</em> / 8) (<em>m</em> / 8) / (<em>r</em> / 7)²
<em>F*</em> = (1/64 × <em>G M m</em>) / (1/49 × <em>r</em> ²)
<em>F*</em> = 49/64 × <em>G M m</em> / <em>r</em> ²
In other words, the new force is scaled down by a factor of 49/64 ≈ 0.7656, so the new force has magnitude approx. 76.56 N.
