Chapter 3: Q 3.4-1E (page 115)

An object of mass 5 kg is released from rest 1000 m above the ground and allowed to fall under the influence of gravity. Assuming the force due to air resistance is proportional to the velocity of the object with proportionality constant b = 50 N-sec/m, determine the equation of motion of the object. When will the object strike the ground?

Short Answer

Expert verified
  • The equation of motion of the object isx(t)=0.981t-0.0981(1-e-10t)m
  • The time taken by the object is1019 sec.

Step by step solution

01

Find the equation of motion of an object

The given values are m = 5, g = 9.81,v0= 0, b = 50,

The equation of motion isrole="math" localid="1664170601861" x(t)=mgtb+mbv-mgb1-e-btm

Put all the given values

5(9.81)t50+550(0-5(9.81)50)(1-e-50t5)(9.81)t10-(9.81)100)(1-e-10t)x(t)=(9.81)t10-(9.81)100)(1-e-10t)x(t)=0.981t-0.0981(1-e-10t)m

Hence the equation of motion is role="math" localid="1664170624317" x(t)=0.981t-0.0981(1-e-10t)m

02

Finding when will the object strike the ground

1000=0.981t-0.0981(1-e-10t)1000=0.981t-0.0981(Becausevalueofissosmallsoneglecting)1000+0.0981=0.981t1000.0981=0.981tt=1000.0981/0.981t=1019sec

Hence, the object will strike the ground in 1019 sec.

On a mild Saturday morning while people are working inside, the furnace keeps the temperature inside the building at 21掳C. At noon the furnace is turned off, and the people go home. The temperature outside is a constant 12掳C for the rest of the afternoon. If the time constant for the building is 3 hr, when will the temperature inside the building reach 16掳C? If some windows are left open and the time constant drops to 2 hr, when will the temperature inside reach 16掳C?

A shell of mass 2 kg is shot upward with an initial velocity of 200 m/sec. The magnitude of the force on the shell due to air resistance is |v|/20. When will the shell reach its maximum height above the ground? What is the maximum height

It was noon on a cold December day in Tampa: 16掳C. Detective Taylor arrived at the crime scene to find the sergeant leaning over the body. The sergeant said there were several suspects. If they knew the exact time of death, then they could narrow the list. Detective Taylor took out a thermometer and measured the temperature of the body: 34.5掳C. He then left for lunch. Upon returning at 1:00 p.m., he found the body temperature to be 33.7掳C. When did the murder occur? [Hint: Normal body temperature is 37掳C.]

A swimming pool whose volume is 10,000 gal contains water that is 0.01% chlorine. Starting at t = 0, city water containing 0.001% chlorine is pumped into the pool at a rate of 5 gal/min. The pool water flows out at the same rate. What is the percentage of chlorine in the pool after 1 h? When will the pool water be 0.002% chlorine?

A red wine is brought up from the wine cellar, which is a cool 10掳C, and left to breathe in a room of temperature 23掳C. If it takes 10 min for the wine to reach 15掳C, when will the temperature of the wine reach 18掳C?
