Answer:
F = 2520 N
Explanation:
We have,
The maximum acceleration of a fist in a karate punch is 4200 m/s². The mass of the fist is 0.6 kg.
It is required to find the force that the wood place on the fist. Force is given by the product of mass and its acceleration such that,
F = ma
So, the force of 2520 N is acting on the wood.
Hi there!
We know that:
U = Potential Energy (J)
K = Kinetic Energy (J)
E = Total Energy (J)
At 10m, the total amount of energy is equivalent to:
U + K = 50 + 50 = 100 J
To find the highest point the object can travel, K = 0 J and U is at a maximum of 100 J, so:
100J = mgh
We know at 10m U = 50J, so we can solve for mass. Let g = 10 m/s².
50J = 10(10)m
m = 1/2 kg
Now, solve for height given that E = 100 J:
100J = 1/2(10)h
100J = 5h
<u>h = 20 meters</u>
