Quick question: If a car speed increases, does its weight increase or decrease?
AI Thread Summary
An increase in a car's speed does not change its weight in terms of rest mass, which remains constant regardless of velocity. However, some argue that relativistic mass increases with speed, suggesting a connection between speed and perceived weight. The discussion also touches on the combustion of gasoline, which can affect the car's overall mass as fuel is consumed. The submarine paradox is mentioned as a potential point of confusion regarding mass and buoyancy. Overall, the relationship between speed and weight is complex and involves considerations of both physics and the specifics of the vehicle's operation.
Neglect gravity other than that of water; neglect friction.
F1=ρgsh=1000*10*1*(1+4)=50000 N;
F1=ρgsh=1000*10*0.1*4=4000 N;
F3=50000-4000=46000 N?
Starting with the mass considerations #m(t)# is mass of water #M_{c}# mass of container and #M(t)# mass of total system
$$M(t) = M_{C} + m(t)$$
$$\Rightarrow \frac{dM(t)}{dt} = \frac{dm(t)}{dt}$$
$$P_i = Mv + u \, dm$$
$$P_f = (M + dm)(v + dv)$$
$$\Delta P = M \, dv + (v - u) \, dm$$
$$F = \frac{dP}{dt} = M \frac{dv}{dt} + (v - u) \frac{dm}{dt}$$
$$F = u \frac{dm}{dt} = \rho A u^2$$
from conservation of momentum , the cannon recoils with the same force which it applies.
$$\quad \frac{dm}{dt}...
I was thinking using 2 purple mattress samples, and taping them together, I do want other ideas though, the main guidelines are;
Must have a volume LESS than 1600 cubic centimeters, and CAN'T exceed 25 cm in ANY direction.
Must be LESS than 1 kg.
NO parachutes.
NO glue or Tape can touch the egg.
MUST be able to take egg out in less than 1 minute.
Grade A large eggs will be used.
