Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Two baseballs are fired into a pile of hay such that one has twice the speed of the other.

suppose u is the velocity of first baseball

so velocity of second ball is 2u

suppose d_1 and d_2 are the penetration by first and second ball

using v^2-u^2=2 ad

where v=final velocity

u=initial velocity

a=acceleration

d=displacement

here v=0 because ball finally stops

0-u^2=2ad_1----1

for second ball

0-(2u)^2=2ad_2----2

divide 1 and 2 we get

\frac{u^2}{4u^2}=\frac{d_1}{d_2}

as deceleration provided by pile will be same

\frac{1}{4}=\frac{d_1}{d_2}

d_2=4d_1

thus faster ball penetrates 4 times of first ball

A 2100-kg pile driver is used to drive a steel I-beam into the ground. The pile driver falls 5.00 m before coming into contact w
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

   f = 878,080 N

Explanation:

mass of pile driver (m) = 2100 kg

distance of pile driver to steel beam (s) = 5 m

depth of steel driven (d) = 12 cm = 0.12 m

acceleration due to gravity (g0 = 9.8 m/s^{2}

calculate the average force exerted on the pile driver by the beam.

  • from work done = force x distance
  • work done = change in potential energy of the pile driver
  • equating the two equations above we have

               force x distance = m x g x (s - d)

              f x 0.12 = 2100 x 9.8 x (5- (-0.12))

              d = - 0.12 because the steel beam went down at we are taking its  

              initial position to be an origin point which is 0

              f = ( 2100 x 9.8 x (5- (-0.12)) ) ÷ 0.12

                   f = 878,080 N

How is work related to potential energy and kinetic energy?

Featured snippet from the web
Work is the force on the object as it changes a distance. Interestingly, as work is done on an object, potential energy can be stored in that object. For example, if you carry a load up the stairs. Now that load will have potential energy that can be transformed into kinetic energy and so on
