For what value of Q will the masses be held in place?
A projectile of mass [m] is launched with initial velocity [v0] at angle [theta] from the +x direction. From the origin, the projectile is connected toa massless spring with force constant k, as shown.
From the equations of motion, one can show that the horizontal and vertical positions of the mass as functions of time can be written asx(t) = A cos wt + B sin wty(t) = C cos wt + D sin wt + Eprovided that the coefficients satisfy the conditions that initially, x(0) = y(0) = 0,vx (t = 0) = v0 cos [theta], and
vy (t = 0) = v0 sin [theta].
Determine the coefficients A,B,C,D, and E in termsof the given variables.
A team of astronauts is on a mission to land on and explore a large asteroid. In addition to collecting samples and performing experiments, one of their tasks is to demonstrate the concept of the escape speed by throwing rocks straight up at various initial speeds. With what minimum initial speed vesc will the rocks need to be thrown in order for them never to "fall" back to the asteroid? Assume that the asteroid is approximately spherical, with an average density ? = 2.67 × 106 g/m3 and volume V =1.71 × 1012 m3. Recall that the universal gravitational constant is G = 6.67 × 10-11 (Nm2)/(kg2).
