- A particle of mass 1.05 kg is subject to a force that is always pointed towards the East but whose magnitude changes linearly with time t. The magnitude of the force is given as F = 4t, and has units of newtons. Let the x-axis point towards the East. Determine the change in x-coordinate in meters of the particle Δx between t = 0 and t = 2.4 if the initial velocity is 17.5 m/s, and pointed in the same direction as the force.arrow_forwardA block (mass = 5.56 kg) is released from rest at the top of a frictionless ramp. 1.01 seconds after release, the block has a speed of 6.34 m/s. Calculate the angle of the ramp in degrees as measured from the horizontal.arrow_forwardA parachutist whose mass is 70 kg drops from a helicopter hovering 2500 m above the ground and falls toward the ground under the influence of gravity. Assume that the force due to air resistance is proportional to the velocity of the parachutist, with the proportionality constant b₁ = 30 N-sec/m when the chute is closed and b₂ = 90 N-sec/m when the chute is open. If the chute does not open until the velocity of the parachutist reaches 15 m/sec, after how many seconds will the parachutist reach the ground? Assume that the acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/sec². - The parachutist will reach the ground after (Round to two decimal places as needed.) * seconds.arrow_forward
- An airplane starts from rest on the runway. The engines exert a constant force of 78.0 kN on the body of the plane (mass 9.20 × 104 kg) during takeoff. How far down the runway does the plane reach its takeoff speed of 64.6 m/s?arrow_forwardAn object is pushed in x and y directions with the force vector F=-230i+10j (N). The object weighs 20kg and goes through a displacement of r=-2i-5j (m). What would be the final velocity of the object?arrow_forwardAn airplane starts from rest on the runway.

- An object has a mass of 15.3 kg and it has an initial velocity of 31.3 m/s (South) when it is acted upon by a force. The object's final velocity after the force has acted for a period of 5.20 s is 14.7 m/s (South). What is the force that acted on the object?arrow_forwardA bartender slides a mug of root beer with mass m - 2.4 kg down a bar top of length L 1.8 m to an inattentive patron who lets it fall a height h 1.4 m to the floor. The bar top (see figure below) is smooth but still has a coefficient of kinetic friction of HK 0.078. (Assume up and to the right as the positive directions.) (a) If the bartender gave the mug an initial velocity of 2.5 m/s, at what distance D from the bottom of the bar will the mug hit the floor? 0.9996 m (b) What is the mug's velocity (magnitude and direction) as it impacts the floor? Magnitude 75 Direction (counterclockwise from the +x-axis) 68.9 X m/s x ° (c) Draw velocity time diagrams for both the x and y directions for the mug, from the time when the bartender lets: go of the mug to when it hits the floor.
