Answer to Problem 50P

  v(2)=10i^3j^

Explanation of Solution

Given data

  x(0)=4.0my(0)=3.0mv(0)=2i^9j^a(t)=4i^+3j^

Formula used

  v(t)=a(t)dt

Calculation

  v(t)= a ( t)dtv(t)=( 4 i ^ +3 j ^ )dt

  v(t)=4i^(t+a)+3j^(t+b) where a and b are constants.

Substitute the values for v(t) when t=0 s

  v(0)=4i^(a)+3j^(b)=2i^9j^

Comparing values of i^ ,

  4a=2a=0.5

Comparing values of j^ ,

  3b=9b=3

Substituting values of a and b,

  v(t)=4(t+0.5)i^+3(t3)j^

when t=2 s

  v(2)=4(2+0.5)i^+3(23)j^v(2)=4(2.5)i^+3(1)j^v(2)=10i^3j^

Conclusion

  v(2)=10i^3j^

Answer to Problem 50P

  s(4)=41i^3j^

Magnitude of the displacement at t=4 s= |s(4)|

  |s(4)|=412+( 3)2=1681+9=1690=6.411 m

Direction of the displacement at t=4 s= θ

  θ=tan1(341)=tan1(0.0732)=4.19 from positive x direction to negative y direction.

Explanation of Solution

Given data

  v(t)=4i^(t+0.5)+3j^(t3)

Formula used

  s(t)=v(t)dt

Calculation

  s(t)= v ( t)dts(t)=[ 4 i ^ ( t+0.5 )+3 j ^ ( t3 )]dt

  s(t)=4i^(t22+0.5t+c)+3j^(t223t+d) where c and d are constants.

Substituting values for s(t) when t=0 s

  s(0)=4( 0 2 2+0.5×0+c)i^+3( 0 2 23×0+d)j^s(0)=4ci^+3dj^

Comparing values of i^

  t=0 s ,

  4c=1c=0.25

Comparing values of j^ when t=0 s ,

  3d=3d=1

Substituting values of c and d,

  s(t)=4(t22+0.5t+0.25)i^+3(t223t+3)j^

When t=4 s

  s(4)=4( 4 2 2+0.5×4+0.25)i^+3( 4 2 23×4+3)j^s(4)=4( 162+2+0.25)i^+3( 16212+3)j^s(4)=4(10.25)i^+3(1)j^s(4)=41i^3j^

  |s(4)|=412+( 3)2=1681+9=1690=6.411 m

  θ=tan1(3 41)=tan1(0.0732)=4.19

Conclusion

  s(4)=41i^3j^

The magnitude of the displacement at t=4 s= |s(4)|

  |s(4)|=412+( 3)2=1681+9=1690=6.411 m

Direction of the displacement at t=4 s = θ

  θ=tan1(341)=tan1(0.0732)=4.19 from positive x-direction to negative y-direction.

A bungee jumper plans to bungee jump from a bridge 64.0 m above the ground. He plans to use a uniform elastic cord, tied to a harness around his body, to stop his fall at a point 6.00 m above the water. Model his body as a particle and the cord as having negligible mass and obeying Hooke's law. In a preliminary test he finds that when hanging at rest from a 5.00 m length of the cord, his body weight stretches it by 1.55 m. He will drop from rest at the point where the top end of a longer section of the cord is attached to the bridge. (a) What length of cord should he use? Use subscripts 1 and 2 respectively to represent the 5.00 m test length and the actual jump length. Use Hooke's law F = KAL and the fact that the change in length AL for a given force is proportional the length L (AL = CL), to determine the force constant for the test case and for the jump case. Use conservation of mechanical energy to determine the length of the rope. m (b) What maximum acceleration will he…
