By calculating numerical quantities for a multiparticle system. One can get a concrete sense of the meaning of the relationships p→sys=Mtotv→CMand Ktot=Ktrans+Krel. Consider an object consisting of two balls connected by a spring, whose stiffness is 400 N/m. The object has been thrown through the air and is rotating and vibrating as it moves. At a particular instant, the spring is stretched 0.3m, and the two balls at the ends of the spring have the following masses and velocities: 1:5kg.(8,14,0)m/s2:3kg(-5,9,0)m/s

(a)For this system, calculate p→sys. (b) Calculate v→CM(c) Calculate Ktot3. (d) Calculate Ktrans. (e) Calculate Krel. (f) Here is a way to check your result for Krel. The velocity of a particle relative to the center of mass is calculated by subtracting v→CMfrom the particle’s velocity. To take a simple example, if you’re riding in a car that’s moving with v→CM,x=20m/sand you throw a ball with v→CM,x=35m/s, relative to the car, a bystander on the ground sees the ball moving with vx=55m/sSo v→=v→CM=v→reland therefore we have=v→relv→=v→CMfor each mass and calculate the correspondingKrel. Compare with the result you obtained in part (e).

(a) Calculation of the total momentum of the system (p→sys)

The total momentum of the system is calculated by adding all momenta acting on the system. The following is the formula used to calculate the total momentum of the system,

p→sys=m1v1+m2v2

Substituting the values in the above expression,

p→sys=5kg×8iÁåœ+14jÁåœ+0kÁåœm/s+3kg×-5iÁåœ+9jÁåœ+0kÁåœm/s=40iÁåœ+70jÁåœ+0kÁåœ-15iÁåœ+27jÁåœ+0kÁåœkg.m/s=25iÁåœ+97jÁåœ+0kÁåœkg.m/s

Hence,p→sysis 25iÁåœ+97jÁåœ+0kÁåœkg.m/s

03

(b) Calculation of v→CM

v→CM=m1v→1m1+m2

Substituting the values in the above expression,

v→CM=5kg×8iÁåœ+14jÁåœ+0kÁåœm/s+3kg×-5iÁåœ+9jÁåœ+0kÁåœm/s5kg+3kg=25iÁåœ+97jÁåœ+0kÁåœkg.m/s8kg=3.12iÁåœ+12.12jÁåœ+0kÁåœm/s.........a

Hence,v→CM is3.12iÁåœ+12.12jÁåœ+0kÁåœm/s.........a

04

(c) Calculation of Ktot

Total kinetic energyKtot is calculated by adding the Translational kinetic energyKtrans and Resolution kinetic energy Krel. Then the expression is,

Ktot=Ktrans+Krel=650J+159J=809J

Hence,Ktot is 809 J

05

(d) Calculation of Ktrans

Translational kinetic energy is determined by the following formula,

Ktrans=12m1v21......1

Here,

v12=vx2+vy2+vz2v12=82+142+02v12=260v1=16.12m/s

Substitute these values in Equation (1),

Ktrans=12×5×260=650J

Hence,Ktrans is 650 J

06

(e) Calculation of Krel 

Resolution kinetic energy is determined by the following formula,

Krel=12m2v22.......2

Here,

v22=vx2+vy2+vz2v22=(-5)2+92+02v22=106v2=10.30m/s

Substitute these values in Equation (2),

Krel=12×3×106=159J

Hence,Krel is 159 J

07

(f) Calculation of Krel

v→rel=v→-v→CMv→1rel=v→1-v→CM

Substituting from equation (a),

v→1rel=8,14,0-3.12,12.12,0v→1rel=4.88,1.88,0v1rel2=4.882+1.882=27.33

K1rel=12m1v21rel

Substitute the values in the above expression,

role="math" localid="1657800922425" K1rel=12×5×27.34=68.34Jv→2rel=v2→-v→CM

Substituting from equation (a),

v→2rel=-5,9,0-3.12,12.12,0v→2rel=-8.12,-3.12,0v2rel=-8.122+-3.122=75.66K2rel=12m2v2rel2

Substitute the values in the above expression,

K2rel=12×3×75.66=113.49JKrel=K1rel+K2relKrel=68.35+113.49=181.84J

Hence,Krel is higher than theKrel obtained in part (e).

Question: You hang by your hands from a tree limb that is a heightabove the ground, with your center of mass a heightabove the ground and your feet a heightabove the ground, as shown in Figure 9.56. You then let yourself fall. You absorb the shock by bending your knees, ending up momentarily at rest in a crouched position with your center of mass a heightabove the ground. Your mass is. You will need to draw labeled physics diagrams for the various stages in the process.

(a) What is the net internal energy change in your body (chemical plus thermal)? (b) What is your speedat the instant your feet first touch the ground? (c) What is the approximate average forceexerted by the ground on your feet when your knees are bending? (d) How much work is done by this force,?

A runner whose mass is 50 kgaccelerates from a stop to a speed of10 m / s in 3 s. (A good sprinter can run100 m in about 10 s, with an average speed of 10 m / s.) (a) What is the average horizontal component of the force that the ground exerts on the runner’s shoes? (b) How much displacement is there of the force that acts on the sole of the runner’s shoes, assuming that there is no slipping? Therefore, how much work is done on the extended system (the runner) by the force you calculated in the previous exercise? How much work is done on the point particle system by this force? (c) The kinetic energy of the runner increases—what kind of energy decreases? By how much?

Three uniform-density spheres are positioned as follows:

  • A3kg sphere is centered at <10,20,-5>m.
  • A 5kgsphere is centered at <4,-15,8>m.
  • A 6kgsphere is centered at <-7,10,9>m.

What is the location of the center of mass of this three-sphere system?

Relative to an origin at the center of the Earth, where is the center of mass of the Earth-Moon system? The mass of the Earth is 6×1024kg, the mass of the Moon is7×1022kg , and the distance from the center of the Earth to the center of the Moon is4×108m . The radius of the Earth is 6400 kmOna can show that the Earth and Moon orbit each other around this center of mass.
