Answer:
The thrust is
Explanation:
Given that,
Mass of gas,
The rate at which the gas is expelling,
We need to find the thrust produced by the gas.
We know that force is equal to the rate of change of momentum. So,
Also, p = mv
So,
So, the thrust is
Answer:
a) h=3.16 m, b) v_{cm }^ = 6.43 m / s
Explanation:
a) For this exercise we can use the conservation of mechanical energy
Starting point. Highest on the hill
Em₀ = U = mg h
final point. Lowest point
= K
Scientific energy has two parts, one of translation of center of mass (center of the sphere) and one of stationery, the sphere
K = ½ m + ½
w²
angular and linear speed are related
v = w r
w = v / r
K = ½ m v_{cm }^{2} + ½ I_{cm} v_{cm }^{2} / r²
Em_{f} = ½ v_{cm }^{2} (m + I_{cm} / r2)
as there are no friction losses, mechanical energy is conserved
Em₀ = Em_{f}
mg h = ½ v_{cm }^{2} (m + I_{cm} / r²) (1)
h = ½ v_{cm }^{2} / g (1 + I_{cm} / mr²)
for the moment of inertia of a basketball we can approximate it to a spherical shell
I_{cm} = ⅔ m r²
we substitute
h = ½ v_{cm }^{2} / g (1 + ⅔ mr² / mr²)
h = ½ v_{cm }^{2}/g 5/3
h = 5/6 v_{cm }^{2} / g
let's calculate
h = 5/6 6.1 2 / 9.8
h = 3.16 m
b) this part of the exercise we solve the speed of equation 1
v_{cm }^{2} = 2m gh / (1 + I_{cm} / r²)
in this case the object is a frozen juice container, which we can simulate a solid cylinder with moment of inertia
I_{cm} = ½ m r²
we substitute
v_{cm } = √ [2gh / (1 + ½)]
v_{cm } = √(4/3 gh)
let's calculate
v_{cm } = √ (4/3 9.8 3.16)
v_{cm }^ = 6.43 m / s
