A trap-jaw ant snaps its mandibles shut at very high speed, a good trait for catching small prey. But an ant can also slam its mandibles into the ground; the resulting force can launch the ant into the air for a quick escape. A 12 mgmg ant hits the ground with an average force of 47 mNmN for a time of 0.13 msms; these are all typical values.
Your forehead can withstand a force of about 6.0 kN before fracturing, while your cheekbone can withstand about 1.3 kN. If a 140 g baseball strikes your forehead at 25 m/s and stops in 1.7 ms, are you in danger of experiencing a fracture? What about if the ball hits your cheek instead?
During a squash game, a player hits the ball, of 24 g, which is moving toward him horizontally at 150 km/h. The impact between the racket and the ball lasts 1.2 ms and the ball leaves with an identical speed but in the opposite direction as the initial velocity. The ball then hits the wall in front, 8 m away and 18 cm below the height of the hit. What is the average force acting on the ball during the impact?

- Emma and Katie are racing along in their new wagon. Upon reaching the bottom of the hill traveling at 13.2 m/s, Katie notices her teddy bear 12.0 m in front of them, panics and locks the brakes sending the wagon into a skid. If the wagon and its contents have a total mass of 1.50 x10^1 kg, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the road and the rubber wagon tires is (0.75), by how much does the wagon miss the bear?arrow_forward7.56 A 1500-kg rocket is Figure P7.56 to be launched with an initial upward speed of 50.0 m/s. In order to assist its engines, the engineers will start it from rest on a ramp that rises 53° above the horizon- tal (Fig. P7.56). At the bot- tom, the ramp turns upward and launches the rocket ver- tically. The engines provide a constant forward thrust of 2000 N, and friction with the ramp surface is a constant 500 N. How far from the base of the ramp should the rocket start, as measured along the surface of the ramp? Rocket starts here. 53% Rocket is launched upward.arrow_forwardA curved incline is used to give a box a certain velocity as it slides down. The box has a mass of m1=4.92 kg. Friction is negligable.

- An outlaw cuts loose a wagon with two boxes of gold, of total mass 300 kg, when the wagon is at rest 50 m up a 6.0° slope. The outlaw plans to have the wagon roll down the slope and across the level ground, and then fall into a canyon where his accomplices wait. But in a tree 40 m from the canyon’s cliff wait the Lone Ranger (mass 75.0 kg) and Tonto (mass 60.0 kg). They drop vertically into the wagon as it passes beneath them (Fig.). (a) If they require 5.0 s to grab the gold and jump out, will they make it before the wagon goes over the cliff? The wagon rolls with negligible friction. (b) When the two heroes drop into the wagon, is the kinetic energy of the system of heroes plus wagon conserved? If not, does it increase or decrease, and by how much?arrow_forwardYou are working for the Highway Department. In mountainous regions, highways sometimes include a runaway truck ramp, and you are asked to help with the design of such a ramp.

Working with your supervisor, you develop a worst-case scenario: a truck with a mass of 5.00 ✕ 104 kg enters a runaway truck lane traveling at 33.0 m/s. Experiments have shown that the coefficient of kinetic friction of truck tires moving through the gravel is 0.51.

First he tries to throw a rope to his fellow astronaut, but the rope is too short. In a last ditch effort, the astronaut throws his bag of tools in the direction of his motion, away from the space station. The astronaut has a mass of ma = 102 kg and the bag of tools has a mass of mp = 19.0 kg. If the astronaut is moving away from the space station at Vj = 2.10 m/s initially, what is the minimum final speed vp.f of the bag of tools with respect to the space station that will keep the astronaut from drifting away forever?
