Answer:
New location at time 3.01 is given by: (7.49, 2.11)
Explanation:
Let's start by understanding what is the particle's velocity (in component form) in that velocity field at time 3:
With such velocities in the x direction and in the y-direction respectively, we can find the displacement in x and y at a time 0.01 units later by using the formula:
Therefore, adding these displacements in component form to the original particle's position, we get:
New position: (7 + 0.49, 2 + 0.11) = (7.49, 2.11)
Answer:
(A) 3,449,600 N/m
(B) 62,720 poeple
Explanation:
extension of the sling shot (e) = 4 m
mass of projectile (m) = 440 g = 0.44 kg
speed of projectile (v) = 11.2 km/s = 11,200 m/s
average force a person can exert = 220 N
spring constant (k) = ?
(A) When all the elastic potential energy is converted to kinetic energy
rearranging the above equation
spring constant (K) =
spring constant (K) =
spring constant (K) =
spring constant (K) = 3,449,600 N/m
(B) force required to stretch the slingshot (F) = ke = 3,449,600 x 4 = 13,798,400 N
number of people required = required force / average force per person = 13,798,400 / 220 =62,720 poeple
