Answer:
F = 614913.88 N
Explanation:
We are given;
Mass of pile driver; m = 1800 kg
Height of fall of pole driver; h = 4.6 m
Depth driven into beam; d = 13.6 cm = 0.136 m
Now, from energy equations and applying to this question, we can write that;
Workdone = Change in potential energy
Formula for workdone is; W = F × d
While the average potential energy here is; W = mg(h + d)
Thus;
Fd = mg(h + d)
Where F is the average force exerted by the beam on the pile driver while in bringing it to rest.
Making F the subject, we have;
F = mg(h + d)/d
F = 1800 × 9.81 × (4.6 + 0.136)/0.136
F = 614913.88 N
Speed of the roller coaster at the top of the loop= 7.67 m/s
Explanation:
using the law of conservation of energy
KEi + PEi= KEf + PEf
KEi= kinetic energy at the top of the hill=0 because the car is at rest there.
PEi= potential energy at the top of the hill
PEf= potential energy at the top of the loop
KEf= kinetic energy at the top of the loop
Also kinetic energy= 1/ 2m v² and potential energy= mgh
m= mass
h= height
v= velocity
so 0+ mghi = 1/2mv² + mg h
500 (9.8)(10)+ 1/2 (500) v²= 500 ( 9.8) (7)
49000+250 v²= 34300
250v²= 14700
v²=58.8
v=7.67 m/s
Answer:
B) Car 2 has both a larger acceleration and a larger average speed.
Explanation:
Car 2 reaches 20 m/s faster than Car 1, so it has a larger acceleration. Car 2 also reaches point B faster than Car 1, so it has the higher average speed.
Ability to maintain ones balance when not moving.
Answer:
I. Stopping acceleration = 6 m/s²
II. Stopping distance, S = 75 meters
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Final velocity = 30 m/s
Time = 5 seconds
To find the stopping acceleration;
Mathematically, acceleration is given by the equation;

Substituting into the equation;
Acceleration = 6 m/s²
II. To find the stopping distance, we would use the third equation of motion;
Where;
V represents the final velocity measured in meter per seconds.
U represents the initial velocity measured in meter per seconds.
a represents acceleration measured in meters per seconds square.
Substituting into the equation, we have;
30² = 0² + 2*6*S
900 = 12S
S = 900/12
S = 75 meters
