You drop a single coffee filter of mass 1.7 g from a very tall building, and it takes 52 s to reach the ground. In a small fraction of that time the coffee filter reached terminal speed. (a) What was the upward force of the air resistance while the coffee filter was falling at terminal speed? (b) Next you drop a stack of five of these coffee filters. What was the upward force of the air resistance while this stack of coffee filters was falling at terminal speed? (c) Again assuming that the stack reaches terminal speed very quickly, about how long will the stack of coffee filters take to hit the ground?

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. The air resistance force on the single coffee filter is 0.0166 N.
  2. The air resistance of five coffee filters is 0.0833 N.
  3. The time that the stack of coffee filters to hit the ground is 23.4 s.

Step by step solution

01

Identification of given data

The given data can be listed below,

  • The mass of a single coffee filter is, m=1.7g1kg1000g=1.710-3kg.
  • The time taken by coffee filter to reach ground is, t = 52 s
02

Concept of air resistance force

The friction is a force that is always against the direction of displacement. In the case of a fluid like air, things do not change, even if the resistance depends on the shape in the hypothesis of perfect (frictionless, inviscid) motion.

03

(a) Determination of the upward force of the air resistance while the coffee filter was falling at terminal speed

When a body attends terminal velocity its resistance force is equal to weight of body and net force is equal to zero.

So, the air resistance force is given by,

Fair=W=mg

Here, m is the mass of the coffee filter and g is the acceleration due to gravity whose value is 9.8m/s2.

Substitute values in the above equation.

role="math" Fair=1.710-3kg9.8m/s21N1kg.m/s2=0.0166N

Thus, the air resistance force on the single coffee filter 0.0166 N .

04

(b) Determination of the upward force of the air resistance five stack of coffee filters while it was falling at terminal speed

The mass of five coffee filters is given by,

m2=51.710-3kg=8.510-3kg

The upward air resistance force is given by,

Fair=m2g

Here, m2is the mass of five coffee filter and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

Substitute values in the above,

Fair=8.510-3kg9.8m/s21N1kg.m/s2=0.0833N

Thus, the air resistance of five coffee filters is=0.0833N .

05

(c) Determination of the time that the stack of coffee filters taken to hit the ground

The air resistance force is directly proportional to velocity of the object which is given by,

Fairv2

The air resistance of single coffee filter and five coffee filters is also proportional to the speed of the stick. So, the ratio of these two is given by,

role="math" localid="1657881780900" m5m=v12v22v1v2=15v1=0.45v2

Here, is the velocity of single coffee filter and is the velocity of the five coffee filters.

The velocity is given by,

v=dt

Here, d is the distance and t is the time.

From the above equation.

v1t

So, the ratio of two velocities can be given by,

v1v2=t2t1

Substitute all the values in the above,

0.45v2v2=t252st2=23.4s

Thus, the time that the stack of coffee filters to hit the ground is 23.4s.

Question: Design a 鈥渂ungee jump鈥 apparatus for adults. A bungee jumper falls from a high platform with two elastic cords tied to the ankles. The jumper falls freely for a while, with the cords slack. Then the jumper falls an additional distance with the cords increasingly tense. You have cords that are10m long, and these cords stretch in the jump an additional 24mfor a jumper whose mass is 80kg, the heaviest adult you will allow to use your bungee jump (heavier customers would hit the ground). You can neglect air resistance. (a) Make a series of five simple diagrams, like a comic strip, showing the platform, the jumper, and the two cords at various times in the fall and the rebound. On each diagram, draw and label vectors representing the forces acting on the jumper, and the jumper鈥檚 velocity. Make the relative lengths of the vectors reflect their relative magnitudes. (b) At what instant is there the greatest tension in the cords? How do you know? (c) What is the jumper鈥檚 speed at this instant? (d) Is the jumper鈥檚 momentum changing at this instant or not? (That is, isdp鈬赌/dtnonzero or zero?) Explain briefly. (e) Focus on this instant, and use the principles of this chapter to determine the spring stiffnessksfor each cord. Explain your analysis. (f) What is the maximum tension that each cord must support without breaking? (g) What is the maximum acceleration (in g鈥檚) that the jumper experiences? What is the direction of this maximum acceleration? (h) State clearly what approximations and estimates you have made in your design.
