- Homework Statement
- Find the energy lost of the system of a manually pumped T-shirt cannon (with a bike pump). Consider loss of energy to friction and loss of pressure.
- Relevant Equations
- mgh
1/2mv^2
PV = nRT
W = Fd
I don’t even know where to start. I especially don’t know how I would find the energy inside of the pump that would then be released to shoot a T-shirt.
