Let the velocity of the wall be ##u## Since there is no impulse in the vertical direction, the vertical motion of the ball is unaffected by the collision. I proceeded by working in the frame of the moving wall, therefore the ball now Initially has : ##V_x = 8 + u ## ##V_y = 6## For the ball...

I was reading this A-level mechanics book by L. Bostock and S. Chandler. The chapter was momentum and in it, there's a section about instantaneous impulse. It says "There are many occasions when a force acts for so short a time that the effect is instantaneous, example a bat striking a ball, in...

I have tried the following. Firstly, we can write the law of conservation of impulse m1*v1 = m1*v'1 + m2*v'2, that is the first equation for the system. Then we can write the law of conservation of energy, like KE1 + KE2 = PE1 + KE'2, and then we can substitute formulas, but as far as I can see...

DISCLAIMERS: if at any point in the text I state something wrong please do mention and correct how it will effect the rest of the arguments. examples 1 and 2 are mainly to build up to the more important example 3 while allowing you to see if I made any wrong statements about the interactions...

The main thing about this problem is to find the components of the velocity, ##v_{A+B}##. To do that you have to use the conservation of linear momentum of the collision. In this case, since there is an impulse, I should have ##\Delta P = J##. But the impulse is given prior to the collision...

I think I was able to work out that ## F=-346.2m ## and that ## t= .087 sec## but maybe I'm wrong. Without knowing the mass, I'm not sure how I can find the impulse. Any hints or corrections are appreciated.

So I have: ##H(\omega)=(\exp(-i\omega)-\exp(i\omega))\exp(i\omega)##, I denote by ##Z(\omega)=\exp(i\omega)##, to get: ##H(\omega)=Z(-\omega)Z(\omega)-Z(\omega)^2##, now, I want to find ##h[n]##, I think it should be: ##h[n]=z[-n]*z[n]+z[n]*z[n]##. But I am not sure how to calculate the...

TL;DR Summary: An impulse is given to the pendulum so that it moves in 3 dimensions. What equations apply throughout its motion? A particle of mass ##m## is suspended from a string of length ##\ell##. The string is then deflected at an angle ## \theta ##, where the particle and string are in...

(bottom graph relates only to c) (a) i. The students can calculate the area under the graph to find the impulse exerted on the block. This is because the area under a force vs. time graph is the change in momentum or the impulse. ii. Knowing that the graph is linear and begins at around 3 N...

Just going over some basic equations to help someone out and i have noticed that i get 2 different answers when using 2 different but very similar equations for impulse. first eq. I=F*t lets say that i have a small rocket motor that has a force of 5.95 newtons and a impulse of 2.5 n-s...

I have done the first two parts of this question. ✅(i) Find the clubhead's change of momentum. ( dp = p_f - p_i = (0.225*18 - 0.225*30) = -2.7 kg ms^-1 ) ✅(ii) Find the impulse given to the golf ball. (F dt = dp = 2.7 Ns from part (i) with just a change in the units. Because of the...

For question 1. I am stuck. I know that the equation involves time and possibly rate, should solve for distance. But not sure how to set it up with information given. 2. Ft= m 🔺️ v F(3)= (100kg)(30m/s) 3 s= 3000 kg m/s Same applied to question 3. 3. F(2)= (100kg)(-30m/s) F(2) = -3000 kg m/s...

i tried to calculate the the kinetic energy by using the impulse law and got that the speed is 150Ns/65kg then I calculated the Energy and later the power. My answer is was 433Watts. How would you solve this question?

For this, Can someone please tell me why they integrate the impulse over from ##t_i## to ##t_f##? Why not from ##j_i## to ##j_f##? It seems strange integrating impulse with respect to time. Many thanks!

So i was able to solve the angular velocity part but i don't know how to find the velocity of centre of mass . For the first part i simply conserved momentum about COM because if i consider the particles as a part of the same system as rod the collision are internal forces . I am mainly...

When the upper block collides with the wall, the impulse to it will be: $$ \int (-N+ f)dt = -2mu$$ Where N is the contact force from the wall. Since N is really huge, the impulse from friction in the first equation above can be ignored, hence the equation become: $$ \int -Ndt = -2mu$$...

I have tried this same approach three times and I got the same answer. I can't figure out what's wrong. Btw answer is 12mu/(3+cos2α) And yes, sorry for my shitty handwriting. If you can't understand the reasoning behind any step then please let me know.

hello i would like to get some help with this problem. At first it try to calculate the impulse by the area but i found it too difficult Then i try to solve it by the forumla J= F(t-t0), but the problem is that i don't know what F is so i try to solve it like this F10) = 8 F(33) = -13 so EF =...

i would like to get some help and to understand why my answer is incorrect , here is how i did the first and second part. about the first part i did it right but i don't understand what I am doing wrong in the second part i tried -k and i get -23.997 and i also try +k and i get 23.997 but they...

Summary:: I'd like to check my understanding of standard problems where a billiard ball resting on a plane is hit horizontally at some height above its center So the situation is that a ball of mass ##m## and radius ##r## is at rest on a horizontal surface. There is friction between the ball...

Hi I've tried solving this question but it seems that I flipped the direction of the impulse, what did I interpret wrong? the question didn't give any clue on their direction before so I couldn't infer the direction of the impulse. It also just gave me the magnitude without the direction. I...

a) Assuming it is inelastic as it is accelerating and therefore kinetic energy is not conserved? Intuitively this doesn't feel right... b) change in momentum = p initial - p final = force x time p initial = 0 as at rest p final = 0.25 x v2 force x time = area under graph = 0.1 therefore 0.25 x...

I think all the options are wrong. Since I = Δp = m1v1' - m1v1, I draw it like this: Is my drawing wrong? Thanks

So far for the word problem I have: A 100 g particle, traveling at 40 m/s, collides inelastically with another 100g particle traveling towards it at 30 m/s. Now from the equation provided we need the question to ask us to find delta t, and that's simple enough but I'm not sure what that 1/2 is...

The misconception came up from the following problem: "A 0.50-kg cart (#1) is pulled with a 1.0-N force for 1 second; another 0.50 kg cart (#2) is pulled with a 2.0 N-force for 0.50 seconds. Which cart (#1 or #2) has the greatest acceleration? " I know the answer is the following (I looked it...

Sometimes there are forces which act for very small time known as impulsive forces. We cannot measure such large forces acting in a very short time but we can ##\Delta p##. ##\Delta p=F\Delta t##.This quantity is defined as Impulse. Why do we keep introducing new quantities? When is a new...

a) From impulse-momentum theorem I have: ##J=mv## so ##v=\frac{J}{m}## and since the ball doesn't slip ##v=\Omega b## so ##\Omega=\frac{J}{mb}## and ##\dot{\theta}=\frac{v}{a+b}=\frac{\Omega b}{a+b}##. b) I considered the angular impulse: ##-J(a+b)=I_0 \Omega_0 \Rightarrow...

I attempted to do mvf-mvi to find the impulse, but had trouble figuring out what to use as v (where does the angle of 3degrees come in?), and thought that there had to be more to the problem considering the other details I was given. I then attempted to maybe calculate the kinetic energy lost...

I'm trying to model the linear collision of a bat and a ball using the conservation of angular momentum. The ball is a point particle with at rest wrt the axis of rotation, and the bat is being treated as a rod of negligible radius. I have had to work through several problems involving a ball...

And really that's all I know how to do myself. If someone can explain/lead me through this, that will be very helpful. Thanks

Answer is (a) I thought it would be (b) due to conservation of momentum - so final momentum of the hockey stick is equal to the initial momentum of the ball. I assume this isn't correct because there are other external forces acting (air resistance?) Is that sound?

##m=.3 kg, v = 11 \frac {m}{s}, t = .25 s, \vec v_1 = mv\langle cos(-55), sin(-55) \rangle, \vec v_2 = mv\langle cos(25), sin(25) \rangle## $$m\vec v_1 - m\vec v_2 = \vec Ft = mv\langle cos(25)-cos(-55), sin(25)-sin(-55) \rangle$$ $$Ft = mv\sqrt{(cos(25)-cos(-55))^2 + (sin(25)-sin(-55))^2}$$ $$F...

What we know: The ball is dropped at the tip A with some speed ##v_0## and rebounds with speed ##v##. This collision produces an angular impulse, changing the angular momentum of the bar with the flywheels. Solution inspired by an answer provided by @TSny in the similar question. Angular...

We know that impulse is $$\vec J = \vec F \Delta t = \Delta \vec p$$ Let ##l, m## be the length of single rod and its mass respectively. Analyzing torques and forces on each rod separately we have: Rod ##AC##: $$F\Delta t +N_x\Delta t = mV_{ac,x} \space\space\text{ eq. }(1)$$ $$F\Delta t\cdot...

1. When an object attached to a fixed point with a string, is given a velocity and the string goes taut. So it says in this book (Applied Mathematics 1 by L. Bostock and S. Chandler) that when the string goes taut, the component of the velocity of the particle becomes zero in the direction...

I get that the impulse is I=FΔt, but why is it even equal to change in momentum caused by the force under consideration?

I wrote: J = m(2/3)v0 - mv0 for part a but I'm not sure if that's correct or if I need something else? I have no idea how to do part b. I wrote F * t = m(2/3)v0 - v0 but I honestly don't know what I'm doing.

Hello friends, I have a problem with a exercise sheet. Given is the impulse response of a discret element. The task is to draw the block diagram. But I think that the solution in the sheet is wrong. Because based on the difference equation (Exercise.pdf) there should be 3 delay elements. I have...

Summary:: Griffiths problem 8.5 Problem 8.5 of Griffiths (in attachment) I already solved part (a), and found the momentum in the fields to be $$\textbf{p}=Ad\mu_0 \sigma^2 v \hat{\textbf{y}}$$ In part (b), I am asked to find the total impulse imparted on the plates if the top plate starts...

The rubber hammer is more elastic so the time of contact will increase. Ft=m(v-u) Does this mean it is more effective as less force is needed for the same change in momentum of the hammer (and the nail) so it requires less force from you? Or does it mean it is less effective as it imparts less...

Here is my calculation: F = ma 50N = 1050kg * a a = 0.0476m/s² S = ut + ½at ² 1000m = 0t + ½(0.0476)t² t = 204.980s y = 204.980s (time to travel 1000m) since impulse = momentum, F * t = mv F * x = m * distance covered/y 50N * x = 1050kg * 1000m/204.980s 50N * x = 5122.450N⋅s x = 102.440s...

In a volleyball match a player hits a 280g mass ball with a force given by . A force acts for 4 meters and the ball acquires a final velocity given by . (a) What is the momentum the player has applied to ball? (b) What is the final speed of the ball? Thank you.

a) F = J/t F = 4000 N*s / 0.35 s F = 11429 N b) I was going to equate impulse to the change in momentum and solve for v' (final velocity). Then use v' to solve for ΔEk. set ΔEk = Fd and solve for d. (The question never mentioned an angle of inclination, so I thought it would be ok to use W =...

Black powder has specific impulse of around 80s, while rocket candy has up to 130s of specific impulse. Does that mean I could replace the propellant in a BP cartridge with 80/130 of the weight in rocket candy and obtain the same performance in an idealized gun? (as in without considering...

As an analogue, if 5J of work is done on an object then the linear KE might increase by 2J and the angular by 3J, so the work is divided between the linear and rotational forms. Now suppose there is a sphere sliding on a frictionless surface. If an impulse of magnitude 1Ns is applied to the...
