Newton’s Law of Motion for a Particle

Free falling Bodies, Air resistance is Neglected.

Sample Problems

  1. A ball is dropped down a well and 5 seconds later the sound of the splash is heared. If the velocity of wound is 330 m/sec., what is the depth of the well?

𝑚 𝑠 (^) S

Solution:

T1 = time for the ball to travel a distance S

T2 = time for the sound to travel a distance S

  1. T1 + T2 = 5
  2. S = ½ gT1 ²

T1 = √2s/g

  1. S = 330T

T2 = S/

Substitute in equation 1:

√2S/9.81 + S/330 = 5

0.452√S + S/330 – 5 = 0

S = 149√S – 1650 = 0

Let y = √S

y² = S

y² + 149y -1650 = 0

y = 10.

√S = 10.

S = 107.2 m

t = 1.4 sec.

S = 15(1.4) – 4.905(1.4)²

S = 11.4 m. from theground

3.A ball is thrown vertically upward with an initial velocity of 3 m/s from the window of a tall building. The ball strikes the sidewalk at the ground level 4 seconds later. Determine the velocity with which the ball hits the ground and the height of the window above the ground level.

Solution:

Vf² = Vo² - 2gh

= (3)² - 2(9.81)h

h = 0.459 m.

Vf = Vo – gt

0 = 3 – 9.81(t)

t = 0.

t2 = 4 secs. – 0.31 secs.

t2 = 3.69 secs.

H = ½ g(t2)²

H = ½ (9.81)(3.61)

H = 66.79 m

Height of the window = H – h

S = 66.79 – 0.459 = 66.

V3² = V1² + 2gh

V3 = 0 + 2(9.81)(66.79)

V3 = 36.20 m/s

Further Application of Kinematics of Translation

Sample Problems

  1. The position of a particle is given by 30 0. Where t is in sec.

3.the acceleration of a particle is given by 3 when t=0,s=-40m, and

v= 30. Determine the position and velocity after t=2 sec.

  1. A ball id thrown so that it just clears a 10ft fence 60 ft. away. If it left the hand 3 ft. above the ground and at an angle of 0?

Given x=60ft.

MOTION DIAGRAM

1.) A train is to commute between station A and station B with a top speed of 250 kph but cannot accelerate nor decelerate faster than 4 m/sec². what is the minimum distance between the two stations in order for the train to be able to reach its top speed? 0 000 3 00 .

Accelearation = 15(60) = 900km/hr²

Deceleration = 10(60) = 600 km/hr²

900t1 = 60

t1 = = 4 min

600t3 = 60

t3 = = 6 min.

S1= (t1) =

S1 = 2 km

S2 – S1 = 60t

S2 – 2 = 60t

10 – S2 = (60/2)(t3)

S2 = 10 – 3 = 7 km

S2 – S1 = 7 – 2 = 5 km

5 = 60t

t2 = 5(60)/60 = 5 min.

total time: 6 + 4 + 5 = 15 mins

  1. An automobile is to travel a distance from A to B of 540 m., in exactly 40 seconds. The auto accelerates and decelerates at 1.8 m/sec²., starting from the rest at A and coming to rest at B. find the maximum speed.

VELOCITY DIAGRAM

1.8t1 = V eq. 1 1.8t3 = V eq. 2

From eq. (1) and (2) 1.8t1 = 1.8t

t1 = t3 eq. 3

t1 + t2 + t3 = 40

2t1 + t = 40

t2 = 40 – 2t1 eq. 4
