A 300-kg space vehicle traveling with a velocity v0 = (360 m/s)ipasses through the origin O at t = 0. Explosive charges then separate the vehicle into three parts A, B, and C , with mass, respectively, 150 kg, 100 kg, and 50 kg. Knowing that at t = 4 s, the positions of parts A and B are observed to be A (1170 m, -290 m, –585 m) and B (1975 m, 365 m, 800 m), determine the corresponding position of part C . Neglect the effect of gravity.
A 900-lb space vehicle traveling with a velocity v0 = (1500 ft/s)k passes through the origin O. Explosive charges then separate the vehicle into three parts A, B, and C , with masses of 150 lb, 300 lb, and 450 lb, respectively. Knowing that shortly thereafter the positions of the three parts are, respectively, A (250, 250, 2250), B (600, 1300, 3200), and C (-475, -950, 1900), where the coordinates are expressed in feet, that the velocity of B is vB = (500 ft/s)i+ (1100 ft/s)j+ (2100 ft/s)k, and that the x component of the velocity of C is -400 ft/s, determine the velocity of part A.
An expert archer demonstrates his ability by hitting tennis balls thrown by an assistant. A 2-oz tennis ball has a velocity of (32 ft/s)i- (7 ft/s)j and is 33 ft above the ground when it is hit by a 1.2-oz arrow traveling with a velocity of (165 ft/s)j + (230 ft/s)k where j is directed upwards. Determine the position P where the ball and arrow will hit the ground, relative to point O located directly under the point of impact.
