Answer:

0\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1}.

Explanation:

In a projectile motion, the kinetic energy (KE) of the projectile is converted to gravitational potential energy (GPE) and then from GPE back to KE.

In this example, the spring toy is the projectile. Refer to the diagram attached.

  • The spring toy started with a velocity of 12\; \rm m\cdot s^{-1}, meaning that its initial KE is non-zero.
  • On the way up, the KE of this spring toy gets converted to GPE.
  • At the top of the trajectory, the GPE of this toy is maximized while its KE is minimized (zero).
  • As the toy returns to the ground, the GPE of this toy gets converted back to KE.
  • The GPE of this toy is zero when the toy is on the ground.

In other words, the kinetic energy (KE) of this toy would be 0 when it is at the top of the trajectory and GPE is maximized.

Since the KE of this toy at the top of the trajectory would be 0, the velocity of this toy at that moment would also be 0\!.

The 4kg head of a sledge hammer is moving at 6m/s when it strikes a chisel, driving it into a log. The duration of the impact (o
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

The average impact force is 12000 newtons.

Explanation:

By Impact Theorem we know that impact done by the sledge hammer on the chisel is equal to the change in the linear momentum of the former. The mathematical model that represents the situation is now described:

\bar F \cdot \Delta t = m \cdot  (v_{2}-v_{1}) (1)

Where:

\bar F - Average impact force, in newtons.

\Delta t - Duration of the impact, in seconds.

m - Mass of the sledge hammer, in kilograms.

v_{1}, v_{2} - Initial and final velocity, in meters per second.

If we know that \Delta t = 0.0020\,s, m = 4\,kg, v_{1} = -6\,\frac{m}{s} and v_{2} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}, then we estimate the average impact force is:

\bar F = \frac{m\cdot  (v_{2}-v_{1})}{\Delta t}

\bar F = 12000\,N

The average impact force is 12000 newtons.

The air pressure inside a car tire is
Valentin [98]

Answer:

0.137m²

Explanation:

Pressure = Force/Area

Given

Force = 41,500N

Pressure = 3.00atm

since 1atm = 101325.00 N/m²

3atm = 3(101325.00)

3atm = 303,975N/m²

Pressure = 303,975N/m²

Get the area

Area = Force/Pressure

Area = 41500/303,975

Area = 0.137m²'

Hence the surface area of the  inside of the tire is 0.137m²
