I understand that the energy will dissipate over a period of time, but how would I determine (guesstimate) that time frame/energy absorption rate.
I don't know deep it will sink, hence the densities provided.
Let's assume that from a 5 story drop it will not deform, the density of the box is 1600kg/m3 and it is impacting dirt at 1900kg/m3.
How do I determine the several orders of magnitude?
If I drop a box of the side of a building (20m) that is 5kg, what is the G shock that this will experience?
F=mg is the force, obviously.
Based on basics, I'm coming up with 1G, but that doesn't make sense - the shock is going to be bigger based on the height.
Say I determine the energy...
I have some things that have a 7% chance of being blue, 10 of these things are put in a box. What is the percent chance that the box will have exactly one blue thing? Two blue things? and so on..
I have simulated this and came up with the following (all appx)
0 - 37%
1 - 37%
2 - 18%
3 -...
