An object with cross section A is shot horizontally across frictionless ice. Its initial velocity is v0xat t0=0s. Air resistance is not negligible.

a. Show that the velocity at time t is given by the expression

vx=v0x1+CAv0xt/2m

b. A 1.6-m-wide, 1.4-m-high, 1500kgcar with a drag coefficient of 0.35hits a very slick patch of ice while going 20m/s. If friction is neglected, how long will it take until the car鈥檚 speed drops to 10m/s? To 5m/s?

c. Assess whether or not it is reasonable to neglect kinetic friction.

Short Answer

Expert verified

a. derivation of the velocity at time t.

b. time taken for car to drop its speed is 312.5s

c. Its absurd. so that kinetic friction were neglected.

Step by step solution

01

Given information (part a)

cross section of the object A

Initial velocity v0xat t=0s

velocity at time t=vx

Coefficient of drag C

density of air

mass of the objectm

02

Explanation (part a)

From Newton's second law

F=ma

The drag force is

D=12CA(vx)2

Consider the negative sign for drag force as it acts opposite to the net force and equal the drag force.

ma=12CA(vx)2a=CA2m(vx)2

Here a=dvxdt

Therefore, we get role="math" localid="1650212860312" dvxdt=CA2m(vx)2dvx(vx)2=CA2mdt

On integrating the above equation, we get

v0xvxdvx(vx)2=CA2m0tdt-1(vx)v0xvx=CA2mt0t

vx=v0x1+CAv0xt/2m

Conclusion: The expression for velocity at time thas been derived.

03

Given information (part b)

length of the car l=1.6m

height of the car h=1.4m

mass of the car m=1500kg

drag coefficient C=0.35

Initial velocity role="math" localid="1650213612097" v0x=10m/s

Final velocity vx=5m/s

density of air=1.225kg/m3

04

Explanation (part b)

The velocity expression at time tis given by

vx=v0x1+CAv0xt/2m

Plugging all the values in the above equation, we get

5=101+(0.35)(1.225)(1.61.4)(10)t215005=101+(0.35)(1.225)(1.61.4)(10)t215005=101+0.0032t1+0.0032t=2t=312.5sec

The time taken for the car to drop its speed312.5secs.

05

Explanation (part c)

If we consider an object that moves by inertia with the drag or frictional force,the net force is not zero and the motion will be decelerated (non-uniform), and we will have to introduce new forces to make it uniform, which is absurd. That is why we neglect the mentioned forces.

Large objects have inertia and tend to keep moving-Newton's BI0 first law. Life is very different for small microorganisms that swim through water. For them, drag forces are so large that they instantly stop, without coasting, if they cease their swimming motion. To swim at constant speed, they must exert a constant propulsion force by rotating corkscrew-like flagella or beating hair-like cilia. The quadratic model of drag of Equation 6.15fails for very small particles. Instead, a small object moving in liquid experiences a linear drag force, Fdrag=(bv, the direction opposite the motion), where bis a constant. For a sphere of radius R, the drag constant can be shown to be b=6R, where is the viscosity of the liquid. Water at 20Chas viscosity 1.0103Ns/m2.

a. A paramecium is about 100mlong. If it's modeled as a sphere, how much propulsion force must it exert to swim at a typical speed of 1.0mm/s? How about the propulsion force of a 2.0-m-diameter E. coli bacterium swimming at 30m/s?

b. The propulsion forces are very small, but so are the organisms. To judge whether the propulsion force is large or small relative to the organism, compute the acceleration that the propulsion force could give each organism if there were no drag. The density of both organisms is the same as that of water, 1000kg/m3.

  1. Write a realistic problem for which these are the correct equations.
  2. Draw the free-body diagram and the pictorial representation for your problem.
  3. Finish the solution of the problem.
(100N)cos30fk=(20kg)ax

n+(100N)sin30(20kg)(9.80m/s2)=0fk=0.20n.

Are the objects described here in equilibrium while at rest, in equilibrium while in motion, or not in equilibrium at all? Explain.

a. A 200 pound barbell is held over your head.

b. A girder is lifted at constant speed by a crane.

c. A girder is being lowered into place. It is slowing down.

d. A jet plane has reached its cruising speed and altitude.

e. A box in the back of a truck doesn鈥檛 slide as the truck stops.

A ball tossed straight up has v = 0 at its highest point. Is it in equilibrium? Explain.

A block of mass mis at rest at the origin at t=0. It is pushed with constant force F0from x=0to x=Lacross a horizontal surface whose coefficient of kinetic friction is k=0(1x/L). That is, the coefficient of friction decreases from 0at x=0to zero at x=L.

a. Use what you've learned in calculus to prove that

ar=vrdvxdx

b. Find an expression for the block's speed as it reaches position L.
