A ball of mass 0.50 kg is fired with velocity 160 m/s into the barrel of a spring gun of mass 1.8 kg initially at rest on a fric

tionless surface. The ball sticks in the barrel at the point of maximum compression of the spring. No energy is lost to friction. What fraction of the ball's initial kinetic energy is stored in the spring

Answer:

All fraction of kinectic energy is lost to barrel of a spring gun of mass 1.8 kg

Explanation:

A ball of mass 0.50 kg is fired with velocity 160 m/s ...

The kinetic energy is given by 1/2mv²

Kinectic energy of the ball = 1/2 *0.5*160²

Kinectic energy = 1/4 *25600

Kinectic energy = 6400 joules.

If no energy is lost to fiction, and the ball sticks to a barrel of a spring gun of mass 1.8 kg with initial velocity zero, all kinetic energy is lost to the barrel of a spring gun of mass 1.8 kg.

At what speed does a 1400 compact car have the same kinetic energy as a 20000 truck going 25 ?

kumpel [21]

K=1400*V^2/2
K=20000*25^2/2. => 1400*V^2/2=20000*25^2/2 <=> 1400*V^2=20000*25^2
14*V^2=200*225
v^2=100*225/7
v=250/7^(1/2)

Answer: 250*7^(1/2)/7

determine the greates possile acceleration of the 975 kg race car so that its front wheels do not leace the gorund

wolverine [178]

<u>Answer</u>:

The greatest possible acceleration of the car is $a_G= 6.78 m/s^2$

<u>Explanation</u>:

$N_A+N_B-Mg = 0$

$-N_Aa +N_B(b-a)- \mu_s N_Bh - \mu_s N_Ah = 0$

$0.8N_B +0.8N_A = 975a_G$

$N_A+N_B = 9564.75$ -------------(1)

$-N_A(1.82) + N_B(2.20 -1.82) -0.9N_B(0.55)-0.8N_A(0.55)=0$

$-N_A(1.82) +0.38 N_B -0.44N_B -0.44N_A=0$

$-2.26N_A -0.06N_B= 0$ ----------------(2)

Solving the equation (1) and(2)

$N_A + N_B = 9564.75$

$-2.26N_A-0.06N_B=0$

$N_A = -260.85N$

$N_B = 9825.60N$

$\mu_s N_B + \mu_s N_A = 975a_G$

$0.8(9825.60)+0.8(-260.85) = 975a_G$ $a_G=\frac{7651.8}{975}$ $a_G_1=7.4848m/s^2$

Next lets assume that the front wheels contact with the ground N_A = 0

$F_B = Ma_G$

$N_B = M_g$

$N_B - M_g = 0$

$N_B(b-a) –F_Bh = 0$

$F_B = 975a_G$

$N_B-975(9.8) = 0$

$N_B=9564.75N$

$9564.75(2.20 -1.82) -F_B(0.55)=0$

$\frac{3634.605}{0.55}=F_B$

$F_B = 6608.3$

$F_B = Ma_G$

$6608.3 = 975a_G$

$a_G = 6.7778 m/s^2$

$a_G_2 = 6.78m/s^2$

Choosing the critical case

$a_G = min(a_G_1 ,a_G_2)$

$a_G = min(7.848, 6.78)$

$a_G= 6.78 m/s^2$
