A 1,800-kg pile driver is used to drive a steel I-beam into the ground. The pile driver falls 3.00 m before coming into contact
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

average force = 385,140 N

Explanation:

from the question we are given the following

mass (m) = 1800 kg

distance of fall (d) = 3 m

driven distance (l) = 14.4 cm = 0.144 m

acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^{2}

work done = average force x driven distance.....equation 1

and

work done = change in kinetic energy + change in potential energy

work done = (0.5 x m x (v^{2} - u^{2})) + (m x g x (-d-l))

  • Initial velocity (u) and final velocity (v) are zero because the pile driver is it rest before it moves to hit the pile and after hitting the pile.
  • The changes in length for the potential energy are negative because the pile moves downward

we now have work done = (m x g x (-d-l))...equation 2

now equating the two equations for work done we have

average force x driven distance = (m x g x (-d-l))

average force x 0.144 = 1800 x 9.8 x (-3-0.144)

average force = (1800 x 9.8 x (-3-0.144)) ÷ 0.144

average force = 385,140 N

Doc Brown has calculated that his Delorean can accelerate at a rate of 2.52 m/s/s. How far away must he and Marty stand to allow
devlian [24]

Answer:

d = 303.33 m

Explanation:

Given that,

Acceleration of Doc Brown is 2.52 m/s²

The initial speed of Doc Brown is 0 as it was at rest.

Final speed of Doc Brown is 39.1 m/s

We need to find the distance between he and Marty. Let the distance is d. Using equation of motion as follows :

v^2-u^2=2ad\\\\\text{Put u = 0}\\\\d=\dfrac{v^2}{2a}\\\\d=\dfrac{(39.1)^2}{2\times 2.52}\\\\d=303.33\ m

So, the distance between he and Marty is 303.33 m.
