Review. The gravitational force exerted on a baseball is 2.21 N down. A pitcher throws the ball horizontally with velocity 18.0 m/s by uniformly accelerating it along a straight horizontal line for a time interval of 170 ms. The ball starts from rest, (a) Through what distance does it move before its release? (b) What are the magnitude and direction of the force the pitcher exerts on the hall?
scientists are experimenting with a king of gun that may eventually be used to fire payloads directly into orbit. in one test, this gun accelerates a 3.8 kg projectile from rest to a speed of 5.2 * 10^3 m/s. the net force accelarating the projectile is 2.5 * 10^5 N. how much time is required for the projectile to come up to speed?
A space habitat for a long space voyage consists of twocabins each connected by a cable to a central hub as shownin Figure P7.26. The cabins are set spinning around the hubaxis, which is connected to the rest of the spacecraft to generateartificial gravity. (a) What forces are acting on an astronautin one of the cabins? (b) Write Newton’s second law for anastronaut lying on the “floor” of one of the habitats, relatingthe astronaut’s mass m, his velocity v, his radial distance fromthe hub r, and the normal force n. (c) What would n have toequal if the 60.0 - kg astronaut is to experience half his normalEarth weight? (d) Calculate the necessary tangential speed ofthe habitat from Newton’s second law. (e) Calculate the angularspeed from the tangential speed. (f) Calculate the periodof rotation from the angular speed. (g) If the astronaut standsup, will his head be moving faster, slower, or at the same speedas his feet? Why? Calculate the tangential speed at the top ofhis head if he is…
A spacecraft was designed to assess the ability of an impact to deflect the path of an asteroid. The spacecraft was launched on a rocket. At launch, the rocket has a mass of 555,000 kg and generates a force of 7.6 x 106 N. A. If you were to neglect the effect of gravity, what would the intial acceleration of the rocket be? B. If the acceleration were to remain constant, how fast will the rocket be moving after two seconds? C. As the rocket burns fuel its mass decreases. If the thrust remains the same, how would your answer to part B change? Would the speed after two seconds be lower, the same or higher?
