prin phy and gen phy problem 4.02 net force 265 N on bike and rider accelerates at 2.30 m/s^2, mass of bike and rider

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

Fnet = 265N

a = 2.3m/s^2

m=

F = ma

F/a =m

265N /2.3m/s^2

m = 115.2

A force Fnet acting on mass m results in acceleration a, where a = Fnet / m. We are given Fnet and a, so we can solve the equation to find m.

Multiplying both sides by m we get

a * m = Fnet / m * m so

a * m = Fnet. Dividing both sides of this equation by a we have

m = Fnet / a = 265 N / (2.30 m/s^2) = 115 (kg m/s^2) / (m/s^2) = 115 kg.

prin phy and gen phy problem 4.07 force to accelerate 7 g pellet to 125 m/s in .7 m barrel

......!!!!!!!!...................................

RESPONSE -->

F

m = 7g

a = 125m/s

ds = .7m

F = ma

F = 7g*125m/s

F = 875g/m/s

** The initial velocity of the bullet is zero and the final velocity is 125 m/s. If we assume uniform acceleration (not necessarily the case but not a bad first approximation) the average velocity is (0 + 125 m/s) / 2 = 62.5 m/s and the time required for the trip down the barrel is .7 m / (62.5 m/s) = .011 sec, approx..

Acceleration is therefore rate of velocity change = `dv / `dt = (125 m/s - 0 m/s) / (.11 sec) = 11000 m/s^2, approx..

The force on the bullet is therefore F = m a = .007 kg * 11000 m/s^2 = 77 N approx. **

i am mistaking velocity as acceleration as stated in the problem. I made this mistake earlier this assignment but was confused bec. units were m/s not m/s^2

the problem stated that v0 = 0 and vf = 175 but when finding vAve, vf is put in as 125m/s

I am familiar with Force equations that if i come accross this problem agian I would know how to solve it.

I believe the text changed the number from 175 to 125 with the new edition; I made the change in the given solution but missed one. I've corrected the solution above.

The fish is being pulled upward by the tension, downward by gravity. The net force on the fish is therefore equal to the tension in the line, minus the force exerted by gravity. In symbols, Fnet = T - m g, where m is the mass of the fish.

To accelerate a fish of mass m upward at 2.5 m/s^2 the net force must be Fnet = m a = m * 2.5 m/s^2. Combined with the preceding we have the condition

m * 2.5 m/s^2 = T - m g so that to provide this force we require

T = m * 2.5 m/s^2 + m g = m * 2.5 m/s^2 + m * 9.8 m/s^2 = m * 12.3 m/s^2.

We know that the line breaks, so the tension must exceed the 22 N breaking strength of the line. So T > 22 N. Thus

m * 12.3 m/s^2 > 22 N. Solving this inequality for m we get

m > 22 N / (12.3 m/s^2) = 22 kg m/s^2 / (12.3 m/s^2) = 1.8 kg.

The fish has a mass exceeding 1.8 kg.

The weight of the parachutist is 55 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 = 540 N, approx.. So the parachutist experiences a downward force of 540 N and an upward force of 620 N. Choosing upward as the positive direction the forces are -540 N and + 620 N, so the net force is

-540 + 620 N = 80 N.

Your free body diagram should clearly show these two forces, one acting upward and the other downward. The acceleration of the parachutist is a = Fnet / m = +80 N / (55 kg) = 1.4 m/s^2, approx..
