Step by step solution

01

Given information

The graph is given in figure 5-25

02

To understand the concept

We can calculate the velocity of an object from the graph of force by assuming the mass value as constant.

03

(a) To graph a of Vx corresponds to case 1 of figure 5.19

Graph ‘a’

Velocity component Vx is constant for the given values of the time. It means the acceleration for an object and hence the x component of force is zero. This is case 1 of figure 5.19, as in that figure forces on the x-axis get canceled out.

04

(b) graph a of Vx corresponds to case 3 of figure 5.19

Graph ‘b’

This graph shows that the value of Vx is increasing with time. So, this graph corresponds to case 3, as in this case, the force component along x is negative.

05

(c) To graph a of Vx corresponds to cases 2 and 4 of figure 5.19

Graph ‘c’

This graph shows the velocity Vx increasing in the negative direction. So, this graph corresponds to cases 2 and 4.

06

(d) To graph a of Vx corresponds to case 2 of figure 5.19

Graph ‘d’

This graph has a constant value for the y component of velocity. So, this corresponds to case 2.

07

(e) To graph a of Vx corresponds to case 1 of figure 5.19

Graph ‘e’

This graph shows the Vy values are increasing with time t. Hence, it corresponds to case 1.

08

(f) To graph a of Vx corresponds to cases 3 and 4 of figure 5.19

Graph ‘f’

This graph shows the Vy component increasing in a negative direction. Hence, it corresponds to case 3 and case 4.

The high-speed winds around a tornado can drive projectiles into trees, building walls, and even metal traffic signs. In a laboratory simulation, a standard wood toothpick was shot by pneumatic gun into an oak branch. The toothpick’s mass was 0.13g, its speed before entering the branch was220m/s , and its penetration depth was role="math" localid="1657007959021" 15mm . If its speed was decreased at a uniform rate, what was the magnitude of the force of the branch on the toothpick?
