A 250 g ball is launched with a speed of 35 m/s at a 30° angle. A strong headwind exerts a constant horizontal drag force on the ball. What is the magnitude of the drag force if the wind reduces the ball's travel distance by 20%?

검증된 단계별 안내
1
Convert the mass of the ball from grams to kilograms: \( m = 250 \, \text{g} = 0.250 \, \text{kg} \).
Determine the initial horizontal velocity of the ball using the formula \( v_{x} = v \cdot \cos(\theta) \), where \( v = 35 \, \text{m/s} \) and \( \theta = 30^\circ \).
Calculate the ideal range of the projectile (without drag) using the formula \( R = \frac{v^2 \cdot \sin(2\theta)}{g} \), where \( g = 9.8 \, \text{m/s}^2 \).
Account for the 20% reduction in range due to the drag force. The actual range is \( R_{\text{actual}} = 0.8 \cdot R \).
Use the work-energy principle to relate the work done by the drag force to the reduction in horizontal kinetic energy. The drag force \( F_{\text{drag}} \) can be found using \( W = F_{\text{drag}} \cdot R_{\text{actual}} \), where \( W \) is the work done to reduce the range.

Projectile Motion

Projectile motion refers to the motion of an object that is launched into the air and is subject to gravitational force and any other forces acting on it, such as drag. The trajectory of the projectile is typically parabolic, and its motion can be analyzed in two dimensions: horizontal and vertical. Understanding the initial velocity, launch angle, and the effects of gravity is crucial for predicting the object's path and range.

Introduction to Projectile Motion

Drag Force

Drag force is the resistance experienced by an object moving through a fluid, such as air. It depends on several factors, including the object's speed, cross-sectional area, and the properties of the fluid. In this scenario, the drag force acts against the ball's motion, reducing its horizontal distance traveled. The magnitude of the drag force can be calculated using the drag equation, which relates it to the velocity and other characteristics of the object.

Distance Reduction

Distance reduction in projectile motion due to external forces, like drag, indicates that the actual range of the projectile is less than what would be expected in a vacuum. In this case, the problem states that the wind reduces the ball's travel distance by 20%. This reduction can be quantified to find the effective range and subsequently used to determine the magnitude of the drag force acting on the ball during its flight.

You are driving your 1800 kg car at 25 m/s over a circular hill that has a radius of 150 m. A deer running across the road causes you to hit the brakes hard while right at the summit of the hill, and you start to skid. The coefficient of kinetic friction between your tires and the road is 0.75. What is the magnitude of your acceleration as you begin to slow?

A motorcycle daredevil plans to ride up a 2.0-m-high, 20° ramp, sail across a 10-m-wide pool filled with hungry crocodiles, and land at ground level on the other side. He has done this stunt many times and approaches it with confidence. Unfortunately, the motorcycle engine dies just as he starts up the ramp. He is going 11 m/s at that instant, and the rolling friction of his rubber tires (coefficient 0.02) is not negligible. Does he survive, or does he become crocodile food? Justify your answer by calculating the distance he travels through the air after leaving the end of the ramp.

An 85,000 kg stunt plane performs a loop-the-loop, flying in a 260-m-diameter vertical circle. At the point where the plane is flying straight down, its speed is 55 m/s and it is speeding up at a rate of 12 m/s per second. What angle does the net force make with the horizontal? Let an angle above horizontal be positive and an angle below horizontal be negative.
