Question

The supplement file* that enclosed to this homework consists Time Versus Force data. The first column in the file stands for time (second) and the 2nd stands for force (Volt), respectively. This data were retrieved during an impact event. In this test, an impactor strikes to a sample. A force-ring sensor that attached to the impactor generates voltage during collision. A data acquisition card gathers the generated signals.

• Take the mass of the impactor as 30 kg and strike velocity as 2.0 m/s.
• Pick the best numerical technique, justify your choice.
• All results must be in SI units.

a) Determine a factor that will be used in the conversion from V to N. The calibration data that supplied by manufacturer as below:

Answer 1

A.) 1mv = 2000N

B.) Impulse = 60Ns

C.) Acceleration = 66.67 m/s^2

Velocity = 4 m/s

Displacement = 0.075 metre

Absorbed energy = 60 J

Step-by-step explanation:

A.) Using a mathematical linear equation,

Y = MX + C

Where M = (2000 - 0)/( 898 - 0 )

M = 2000/898

M = 2.23

Let Y = 2000 and X = 898

2000 = 2.23(898) + C

2000 = 2000 + C

C = 0

We can therefore conclude that

1 mV = 2000N

B.) Impulse is the product of force and time.

Also, impulse = momentum

Given that

Mass M = 30kg

Velocity V = 2 m/s

Impulse = M × V = momentum

Impulse = 30 × 2 = 60 Ns

C.) Force = mass × acceleration

F = ma

Substitute force and mass into the formula

2000 = 30a

Make a the subject of formula

a = 2000/30

acceleration a = 66.67 m/s^2

Since impulse = 60 Ns

From Newton 2nd law,

Force = rate of change in momentum

Where

change in momentum = -MV - (- MU)

Impulse = -MV + MU

Where U = initial velocity

60 = -60 + MU

30U = 120

U = 120/30

U = 4 m/s

Force = 2000N

Impulse = Ft

Substitute force and impulse to get time

60 = 2000t

t = 60/2000

t = 0.03 second

Using third equation of motion

V^2 = U^2 + 2as

Where S = displacement

4^2 = 2^2 + 2 × 66.67S

16 = 4 + 133.4S

133.4S = 10

S = 10/133.4

S = 0.075 metre

D.) Energy = 1/2 mV^2

Energy = 0.5 × 30 × 2^2

Energy = 15 × 4 = 60J
