Chapter 5, Problem 30P
The high-speed winds around a tornado can drive projectiles into trees, building walls, and even metal traffic signs. In a laboratory simulation, a standard wood toothpick was shot by pneumatic gun into an oak branch. The toothpick’s mass was 0.13 g, its speed before entering the branch was 220 m/s, and its penetration depth was 15 mm. If its speed was decreased at a uniform rate, what was the magnitude of the force of the branch on the toothpick?

- In a two-dimensional tug-of-war, Alex, Betty, and Charles pull horizontally on an automobile tire at the angles shown in the overhead view of the figure. The tire remains stationary in spite of the three pulls. Alex pulls with force of magnitude 202 N, and Charles pulls with force of magnitude 148 N. Note that the direction of Charles' force is not given. What is the magnitude of Betty's force?arrow_forwardFlying Circus of Physics The high-speed winds around a tornado can drive projectiles into trees, building walls, and even metal traffic signs. In a laboratory simulation, a standard wood toothpick was shot by pneumatic gun into an oak branch. The toothpick mass was 0.140 g, its speed before entering the branch was 217 m/s, and its penetration depth was 18.0 mm. If its speed was decreased at a uniform rate, what was the magnitude of the force of the branch on the toothpick?

You’ve found the missing explorer, but you're separated from him by a 200-mm-high cliff and a 30-mm-wide raging river. To save his life, you need to get a 4.4 kgkg package of emergency supplies across the river. Unfortunately, you can't throw the package hard enough to make it across. Fortunately, you happen to have a 0.90 kgkg rocket intended for launching flares. Improvising quickly, you attach a sharpened stick to the front of the rocket, so that it will impale itself into the package of supplies, then fire the rocket at ground level toward the supplies.

- A dog of mass Md is standing on a raft so that he is a distance Xdgi=L from the shore.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. A runaway truck ramp is often a lane of gravel adjacent to a long downhill section of roadway where trucks with failing brakes may need assistance to stop. Working with your supervisor, you develop a worst-case scenario: a truck with a mass of 4.50 x 104 kg enters a runaway truck lane traveling at 31.1 m/s. Assume that the maximum constant value for safe acceleration of the truck is -5.00 m/s². Any higher magnitude of acceleration increases the likelihood that semi-trailer rigs could jackknife. Your supervisor asks you to advise her on the required length (in m) of a runaway truck lane on a flat section of ground next to the roadway. m Need Help?

- The force of wind blowing on a window positioned at a right angle to the direction of the wind varies jointly as the area of the window and the square of the wind's speed. It is known that a wind of 30 miles per hour blowing on a window measuring 4 feet by 5 feet exerts a force of 150 pounds. During a storm with winds of 60 miles per hour, should hurricane shutters be placed on a window that measures 3 feet by 4 feet and is capable of withstanding 300 pounds of force?arrow_forwardAn advertisement claims that a particular automobile can "stop on a dime".

The frictional resistance to the car motion is 1/200 of its weight. The force exerted by wind is P=kSu2, where S is the area of the backside of the railroad car, equals to 6 m2, and u is the velocity of the wind relative to car, k=0.12. The absolute velocity of the wind is w=12 m/s. The initial velocity of the railroad car is 0. Determine:a) the maximum velocity vmax of the railroad car;b) the time T taken to reach this velocity;c) the distance x, travelled by the railroad car before reaching a velocity of 3 m/sarrow_forward
