1 Problem 13.1 In Eample 13., suppose that the vehicle is dropped from a height h = 6m. What is the downward velocit 1 s after it is released? What is its downward velocit just before it reaches the ground? The equations that govern the motion are: a = g = 9.81 m/s v = gt s = 1 gt + h h v = gt = (9.81 m/s )(1 s) = 9.81 m/s. The downward velocit is 9.81 m/s. We need to first determine the time at which the vehicle hits the ground s = = 1 h gt + h t = g = (6 m) 9.81 m/s = 1.16 s Now we can solve for the velocit v = gt = (9.81 m/s )(1.16 s) = 1.8 m/s. The downward velocit is 1.8 m/s. Problem 13. The milling machine is programmed so that during the interval of time from t = tot = s, the position of its head (in inches) is given as a function of time b s = 4t t 3. What are the velocit (in in/s) and acceleration (in in/s ) of the head at t = 1s? The motion is governed b the equations s = (4 in/s)t ( in/s )t, s v = (4 in/s) ( in/s )t, a = ( in/s ). At t = 1 s, we have v =,a = 4 in/s. 9

2 Problem 13.3 In an eperiment to estimate the acceleration due to gravit, a student drops a ball at a distance of 1 m above the floor. His lab partner measures the time it takes to fall and obtains an estimate of.46 s. What do the estimate the acceleration due to gravit to be? Let s be the ball s position relative to the floor. Using the value of the acceleration due to gravit that the obtained, and assuming that the ball is released at t =, determine s (in m) as a function of time. s The governing equations are a = g v = gt s = 1 gt + h s When the ball hits the floor we have = 1 gt + h g = h (1 m) = = 9.45 m/s t (.46 s) g = 9.45 m/s The distance s is then given b s = 1 (9.45 m/s ) + 1m. s = (4.73 m/s )t + 1. m. Problem 13.4 The boat s position during the interval of time from t = stot = 1 s is given b s = 4t + 1.6t.8t 3 m. Determine the boat s velocit and acceleration at t = 4s. What is the boat s maimum velocit during this interval of time, and when does it occur? s = 4t + 1.6t.8t 3 v = ds a = dv = t.4t = 3..48t a) v(4s) = 1.96 m/s a(4s) = 1.8 m/s b) a = 3..48t = t = 6.67s v(6.67s) = m/s 1

3 Problem 13.5 The rocket starts from rest at t = and travels straight up. Its height above the ground as a function of time can be approimated b s = bt + ct 3, where b and c are constants. At t = 1 s, the rocket s velocit and acceleration are v = 9 m/s and a = 8. m/s. Determine the time at which the rocket reaches supersonic speed (35 m/s). What is its altitude when that occurs? The governing equations are s = bt + ct 3, s v = bt + 3ct, a = b + 6ct. Using the information that we have allows us to solve for the constants b and c. (9 m/s) = b(1 s) + 3c(1 s), (8. m/s ) = b + 6c(1 s). Solving these two equations, we find b = 8.8 m/s, c =.177 m/s3. When the rocket hits supersonic speed we have (35 m/s) = (8.8 m/s )t + 3(.177 m/s3 )t t = 13. s. The altitude at this time is s = (8.8 m/s )(13. s) + (.177 m/s3 )(13. s)3 s = 194 m. Problem 13.6 The position of a point during the interval of time from t = to t = 6 s is given b s = 1 t 3 + 6t + 4t m. What is the maimum velocit during this interval of time, and at what time does it occur? What is the acceleration when the velocit is a maimum? s = 1 t 3 + 6t + 4t m dv = (it could be a minimum) da = 3 so we have a maimum. This occurs at t = 4 s. At this point v = 3 t + 1t + 4 m/s Maimum velocit occurs where a = Ma velocit is at t = 4 s. where v = 8 m/s and a = m/s a = 3t + 1 m/s Please purchase PDF Split-Merge on to remove this watermark. 11

Video measurements indicate that a bird requires a distance of 4.3 m to take off and is moving at 6.1 m/s when it does. What is its acceleration? The governing equations are a = constant, v = at, s = 1 at. Using the information given, we have 6.1 m/s = at, 4.3 m= 1 at. Solving these two equations, we find t = 1.41 s and a = 4.33 m/s. Problem Progressivel developing a more realistic model, the bioengineer net models the acceleration of the snow petrel b an equation of the form a = C(1 + sin ωt), where C and ω are constants. From video measurements of a bird taking off, he estimates that ω = 18/s and determines that the bird requires 1.4 s to take off and is moving at 6.1 m/s when it does. What is the constant C? acceleration We find an epression for the velocit b integrating the a = C(1 + sin ωt), v = Ct + C ω (1 cos ωt) = C ( t + 1 ω 1 ω cos ωt ). Using the information given, we have 6.1 m/s = C (1.4 s + s 18 s ) 18 cos[18(1.4)] Solving this equation, we find C = 4.8 m/s. 16

The driver takes one second to react before he applies the brakes. 48 km/h After he applies the brakes, what constant rate of deceleration will cause the car to come to a stop just as it reaches the light? How long does it take the car to travel the 9 m? 9 m for t 1s a =, v= 48 km/h = m/s,s= ( m/s)t s(1 s) = m for t>1s a = c(constant), v = ct m/s, s = c t + ( m/s )t m At the stop we have 9 m = c t + ( m/s )t m = ct m/s a) c = m/s b) t = s Problem 13.3 The car is traveling at 48 km/h when the traffic light 9 m ahead turns ellow. The driver takes 1 s to react before he applies the accelerator. If the car has a constant acceleration of m/s and the light remains ellow for 5 s, will the car reach the light before it turns red? How fast is the car moving when it reaches the light? First, convert the initial speed into m/s. 48 km/h = m/s. At the end of the 5 s, the car will have traveled a distance [ ] 1 d = ( m/s )(1 s) + ( m/s )(5 s 1s) + ( m/s )(5 s 1s) = 8.65 m. When the light turns red, the driver will still be 7.35 m from the light. No. To find the time at which the car does reach the light, we solve [ ] 1 9 m = ( m/s)(1 s) + ( m/s )(t 1s) + ( m/s )(t 1s) t = s.

14 Problem A high-speed rail transportation sstem has a top speed of 1 m/s. For the comfort of the passengers, the magnitude of the acceleration and deceleration is limited to m/s. Determine the time required for a trip of 1 km. Strateg: A graphical approach can help ou solve this problem. Recall that the change in the position from an initial time t to a time t is equal to the area defined b the graph of the velocit as a function of time from t to t. Divide the time of travel into three intervals: The time required to reach a top speed of 1 m/s, the time traveling at top speed, and the time required to decelerate from top speed to zero. From smmetr, the first and last time intervals are equal, and the distances traveled during these intervals are equal. The initial time is obtained from v(t 1 ) = at 1, from which t 1 = 1/ = 5 s. The distance traveled during this time is s(t 1 ) = at1 / from which s(t 1) = (5) / = 5 m. The third time interval is given b v(t 3 ) = at =, from which t 3 = 1/ = 5 s. Check. The distance traveled is s(t 3 ) = a t 3 + 1t 3, from which s(t 3 ) = 5 m. Check. The distance traveled at top speed is s(t ) = = 95 m = 95 km. The time of travel is obtained from the distance traveled at zero acceleration: s(t ) = 95 = 1t, from which t = 95. The total time of travel is t total = t 1 + t + t 3 = = 15 s = 17.5 minutes. A plot of velocit versus time can be made and the area under the curve will be the distance traveled. The length of the constant speed section of the trip can be adjusted to force the length of the trip to be the required 1 km. Problem 13.3 The nearest star, Proima Centauri, is 4. light ears from the Earth. Ignoring relative motion between the solar sstem and Proima Centauri, suppose that a spacecraft accelerates from the vicinit of the Earth at.1 g (.1 times the acceleration due to gravit at sea level) until it reaches one-tenth the speed of light, coasts until it is time to decelerate, then decelerates at.1 g until it comes to rest in the vicinit of Proima Centauri. How long does the trip take? (Light travels at m/s.) The distance to Proima Centauri is d = (4. light - ear)(3 1 8 m/s)(365.4 da) = m.

The length of the middle interval is s(t ) = d s(t 1 ) s(t 3 ) = m. The time of flight at constant velocit is t = m = seconds. The total time of flight is t total = t 1 + t + t 3 = seconds.

The total distance traveled is For the first interval, the velocit is v(t) = (5 + t) + v() = 5t + t since v() =. The velocit is an increasing monotone function; hence the maimum occurs at the end of the interval, t = 1 s, from which s(t 1) = a (t 1) + v(1)(t 1) + s(1), from which s(5) = (5) = m v ma = 15 m/s. The distance traveled in the first interval is s(1) = [ 1 5 (5t + t ) = t + 1 ] 1 3 t3 The time of travel in the second interval is = m. v(t 1) = = a(t 1) + v(1), t 1 s, from which (t 1) = 15 3 = 5, and Problem When t =, the position of a point is s = 6 m and its velocit is v = m/s. From t = tot = 6 s, the acceleration of the point is a = + t m/s. From t = 6 s until it comes to rest, its acceleration is a = 4 m/s. What is the total time of travel? What total distance does the point move? For the first interval the velocit is v(t) = ( + t ) + v() = [t + 3 ] t3 + m/s. The total time of travel is t total = = 45.5 seconds. The velocit at the end of the interval is v(6) = 158 m/s. The displacement in the first interval is ( s(t) = t + ) [ 3 t = t + 1 ] 6 t4 + t + 6. The distance traveled is s(t 6) = 4 (t 6) + v(6)(t 6) + s(6) = (39.5) + 158(39.5) + 7, The displacement at the end of the interval is s(6) = 7 m. For the second interval, the velocit is v(t 6) = a(t 6) + v(6) =,t 6, from which (t 6) = v(6) a = = from which the total distance is s total = 339 m 3

16 Problem Zoologists studing the ecolog of the Serengeti Plain estimate that the average adult cheetah can run 1 km/h and that the average springbuck can run 65 km/h. If the animals run along the same straight line, start at the same time, and are each assumed to have constant acceleration and reach top speed in 4 s, how close must the a cheetah be when the chase begins to catch a springbuck in 15 s? The top speeds are V c = 1 km/h = 7.78 m/s for the cheetah, and V s = 65 km/h = 18.6 m/s. The acceleration is a c = V c 4 = 6.94 m/s for the cheetah, and a s = V s 4 = m/s for the springbuck. Divide the intervals into the acceleration phase and the chase phase. For the cheetah, the distance traveled in the first is s c (t) = 6.94 (4) = m. The total distance traveled at the end of the second phase is s total = V c (11) = m. For the springbuck, the distance traveled during the acceleration phase is s s (t) = (4) = m. The distance traveled at the end of the second phase is s s (t) = 18.6(11) = 34.7 m. The permissible separation between the two at the beginning for a successful chase is d = s c (15) s s (15) = = 16.4 m Problem Suppose that a person unwisel drives 1 km/h in a 88 km/h zone and passes a police car going 88 km/h in the same direction. If the police officers begin constant acceleration at the instant the are passed and increase their speed to 19 km/h in 4 s, how long does it take them to be even with the pursued car? The conversion from mi/h to m/s is The distance traveled b the pursued car during this acceleration is km h = 1 m 36 s =.78 m/s The acceleration of the police car is a = ( )(. 78 ) m/s 4s =.85 m/s. The distance traveled during acceleration is s(t 1 ) =. 85 (4) + 88(. 78)(4) = 11 m. s c (t 1 ) = 1 (. 78 ) t 1 = (4) = m. The separation between the two cars at 4 seconds is d = = 1.4 m.

The time required to come to a full stop The distance traveled after brake application is traveled from brake application to full stop is given b s(t) =.gt + V t, from which s(t ) = 17.6 m. The distance traveled during the reaction time is d = V (.5) = 9. 5(.5) = m, from which the total distance is d t = = m ds(t ) = ist = V.4g = 9. 5 (.4)( 9. 81) = 7.4 s. The driver s reaction time increases this b.5 second, hence the total time to stop after observing the ellow light is T = t +.5 = 7.9 s Problem The acceleration of a point moving along a straight line is a = 4t + m/s. When t = s, its position is s = 36 m, and when t = 4 seconds, its position is s = 9 meters. What is its velocit when t = 4s? The position-time equation is given b integrating d s ds = 4t +, from which = t + t + V, and s(t) = ( ) t 3 + t + V t + d, 3 where V,d are the initial velocit and position. From the problem conditions: s() = from which ( ) 3 + ( ) + V () + d = 36, 3 (1) V + d = ( ) 8.s(4) = 3 ( ) (4 ) + V (4) + d = 9, 3 from which () 4V + d = ( ) Subtract (1) from () to obtain ( ) 94 8 V = =.33 m/s. 6 The velocit at t = 4 seconds is [ ] ds(t) = [t + t + V ] t=4 = = 4.33 m/s t=4 94

87 Problem A model rocket takes off straight up. Its acceleration during the s its motor burns is 5 m/s. Neglect aerodnamic drag, and determine the maimum velocit of the rocket during the flight and the maimum altitude the rocket reaches. The strateg is to solve the equations of motion for the two phases of the flight: during burn t s seconds, and after burnout: t>s. Phase 1: The acceleration is: d s ds = 5, from which = 5t, and s(t) = 1.5t, since the initial velocit and position are zero. The velocit at burnout is V burnout = (5)() = 5 m/s. The altitude at burnout is h burnout = (1.5)(4) = 5 m. Phase. The acceleration is: d s ds = g, from which = g(t ) + V burnout (t ), and s(t) = g(t ) / + V burnout (t ) + h burnout,(t ). The velocit during phase 1 is constantl increasing because of the rocket s positive acceleration. Maimum occurs at burnout because after burnout, the rocket has negative acceleration and velocit constantl decreases until it reaches zero at maimum altitude. The velocit from maimum altitude to impact must be constantl increasing since the rocket is falling straight down under the action of gravit. Thus the maimum velocit during phase occurs when the rocket impacts the ground. The issue of maimum velocit becomes this: is the velocit at burnout greater or less than the velocit at ground impact? The time of flight is given b = g(t flight ) / + V burnout (t flight ) + h burnout, from which, in canonical form: (t flight ) + b(t flight ) + c =, where b = (V burnout /g) and c = (h burnout /g). The solution (t flight ) = b ± b c = 11.11, =.9 s. Since the negative time is not allowed, the time of flight is t flight = s. The velocit at impact is V impact = g(t flight ) + V burnout = 59 m/s which is higher in magnitude than the velocit at burnout. The time of maimum altitude is given b ds = = g(t ma alt ) + V burnout, from which t ma alt = V burnout g t ma alt = 7.1 s. The maimum altitude is = 5.1 s, from which h ma = g (t ma alt ) + V burnout (t ma alt ) + h burnout = m 95

88 Problem In Problem , if the rocket s parachute fails to open, what is the total time of flight from takeoff until the rocket hits the ground? The solution to Problem was (serendipitousl) posed in a manner to ield the time of flight as a peripheral answer. The time of flight is given there as t flight = s Problem The acceleration of a point moving along a straight line is a = cv 3, where c is a constant. If the velocit of the point is v, what distance does the point move before its velocit decreases to v? The acceleration is dv = cv 3. Using the chain rule, dv = dv ds = v dv ds ds = cv3. Separating variables and integrating: dv v = cds, from which 1 v = cs + C. Ats =, v = v, from which 1 v = cs 1 v, and v = v 1 + v cs. Invert: v cs = v v 1. When v = v ( ) 1, s = cv Problem Water leaves the nozzle at above the horizontal and strikes the wall at the point indicated. What was the velocit of the water as it left the nozzle? Strateg: Determine the motion of the water b treating each particle of water as a projectile m 6.1 m 1.67 m equations: dv d = g and dv Denote θ =. The path is obtained b integrating the = gt + V n sin θ, d =, from which = V n cos θ. Substitute: = g ( ) tan θ. 44, V n cos θ ( ) 1.67 g from which V n = cos θ ( 1.67 tan θ.44) =.9 m/s = g t + (V n sin θ)t +. = (V n cos θ)t +. Choose the origin at the nozzle so that =, and =. When the stream is (t impact ) = =.44 m, the time is = g (t impact) + (V n sin θ)t impact.44. At this same time the horizontal distance is 1.67 (t impact ) = 1.67 = (V n cos θ)t impact, from which t impact = Vn cos θ. 96

89 Problem In practice, a quarterback throws the football with a velocit v at 45 above the horizontal. At the same instant, a receiver standing 6.1 m in front of him starts running straight down field at 3.5 m/s and catches the ball. Assume that the ball is thrown and caught at the same height above the ground. What is the velocit v? m/s 6.1 m Denote θ = 45. The path is determined b integrating the equations; d d = g, d =, from which = gt + v sin θ, d = v cos θ. v 45 1 ft/s = g t + (v sin θ)t, = (v cos θ)t, ft where the origin is taken at the point where the ball leaves the quarterback s hand. When the ball reaches the receiver s hands, v sin θ =, from which t flight =. g At this time the distance down field is the distance to the receiver: = 3.5 t flight But also = (v cos θ)t flight, from which 6.1 t flight = (v cos θ 3.5). Substitute: 6.1 (v cos θ ) = v sin θ, from which 3.5 g 37.1 g = v sin θ(v cos θ 3.5). The function f(v ) = v sin θ(v cos θ 3.5) 37.1 g was graphed to find the zero crossing, and the result refined b iteration: v = m/s. Check: The time of flight is t = 1.7 s and the distance down field that the quarterback throws the ball is d = = 1 m, which seem reasonable for a short, lob pass. check. 97

90 Problem The constant velocit v = m/s. What are the magnitudes of the velocit and acceleration of point P when =.5 m? =. sin π P 1 m Let = t m/s. Then =.5 m at t =.15 s. We know that v = m/s and a =. From =. sin(πt), we obtain d d =.4π cos(πt) and =.8π sin(πt). At t =.15 s, d d =.141 m and = v =.889 m/s and = a = 5.58 m/s. Therefore v = v + v =.19 m/s, a = a + a = 5.58 m/s. Problem The constant velocit v = m/s. What is the acceleration of point P in terms of normal and tangential components when =.5 m? See the solution of Problem The angle θ between the ais and the path is ( ) ( ) v.889 θ = arctan = arctan = 4.. Then v a t = a cos θ + a sin θ = + ( 5.58) sin 4. =.7 m/s, a θ a t a a N = a sin θ a cos θ = ( 5.58) cos 4. = 5.1 m/s. a N The instantaneous radius is ρ = v + v = () + (.889) =.939 m. a N

91 Problem The constant velocit v = m/s. What is the acceleration of point P in terms of polar coordinates when =.5 m? See the solution of Problem The polar angle θ is ( ) ( ).141 θ = arctan = arctan = 9.5. Then.5 a θ a a r a r = a cos θ + a sin θ = + ( 5.58) sin 9.5 =.75 m/s, a θ = a sin θ + a cos θ = + ( 5.58) cos 9.5 = 4.86 m/s. θ a Problem A point P moves along the spiral path r = (.1)θ m, where θ is in radians. The angular position θ = t rad, where t is in seconds, and r = at t =. Determine the magnitudes of the velocit and acceleration of P at t = 1s. r P θ The path r =.t m, θ = t rad. The velocit components are v r = dr =. m/s,v θ = r dθ = (.t) =.4t. At t = 1 seconds the magnitude of the velocit is v = vr + v θ =. +.4 =.447 m/s The acceleration components are: a r = d r r a θ = r ( dθ ( d ) θ + ) = (.t)( ) m/s, ( dr )( ) dθ = (.)() =.8 m/s. The magnitude of the acceleration is a = ar + a θ = 1.13 m/s 99

92 Problem In the cam-follower mechanism, the slotted bar rotates with a constant angular velocit ω = 1 rad/s, and the radial position of the follower A is determined b the profile of the stationar cam. The slotted bar is pinned a distance h =. m to the left of the center of the circular cam. The follower moves in a circular path of.4 m radius. Determine the velocit of the follower when θ = 4 in terms of polar coordinates, and in terms of cartesian coordinates. h θ r A The first step is to get an equation for the path of the follower in terms of the angle θ. This can be most easil done b referring to the diagram at the right. Using the law of cosines, we can write R = h + r hr cos θ. This can be rewritten as r hr cos θ + (h R ) =. We need to find the components of the velocit. These are v r =ṙ and v θ = r θ. We can differentiate the relation derived from the law of cosines to get ṙ. Carring out this differentiation, we get rṙ hṙ cos θ + hr θ sin θ =. Solving for ṙ, we get O h r θ c R P ṙ = hr θ sin θ (h cos θ r). Recalling that ω = θ and substituting in the numerical values, i.e., R =.4 m, h =. m,ω = 1 rad/s, and θ = 4, we get r =.553 m, v r =.13 m/s, and v θ = 6.64 m/s The transformation to cartesian coordinates can be derived from e r = cos θi + sin θj, and e θ = sin θi + cos θj. Substituting these into v = v r e r + v θ e θ, we get v = (v r cos θ v θ sin θ)i + (v r sin θ + v θ cos θ)j. Substituting in the numbers, v = 5.9i j (m/s) Problem * In Problem , determine the acceleration of the follower when θ = 4 in terms of polar coordinates and in terms of cartesian coordinates. Information from the solution to Problem will be used in this solution. In order to determine the components of the acceleration in polar coordinates, we need to be able to determine all of the variables in the right hand sides of a r = r r θ and that a θ = r θ + ṙ θ. We alread know everthing ecept r and θ. Since ω is constant, θ = ω =. We need onl to find the value for r and the value for r at θ = 4. Substituting into the original equation for r, wefind that r =.553 m at this position on the cam. To find r, we start with ṙ = v r. Taking a derivative, we start with rṙ hṙ cos θ + hr θ sin θ = from Problem (we divided through b ). Taking a derivative with respect to time, we get Evaluating, we get r = m/s. Substituting this into the equation for a r and evaluating a n,wegeta r = m/s and a θ = 51. m/s The transformation of cartesian coordinates can be derived from e r = cos θi + sin θj, and e θ = sin θi + cos θj. Substituting these into a = a r e r + a e e θ, we get a = a r e r + a θ e θ, we get a = (a r cos θ a θ sin θ)i + (a r sin θ + a θ cos θ)j. Substituting in the numbers, we get a = i 1.1 j(m/s ). r = ṙ + hr θ sin θ + hr θ cos θ + hr θ sin θ. (h cos θ r) 1
