4-1.Newton's Laws of Motion
hard

A bullet is fired from a gun. The force on the bullet is given by:

$F =  600 - 2 \times 10^5\ t$

Where $F$ is in newton and $t$ in second. The force on the bullet becomes zero as soon as it leaves the barrel. What is the average impulse imparted to the bullet?

A

$9\ N - s$

B

$58.8\ kg / s$

C

$0.9\ kg / s$

D

$178.4\ kg / s$

Solution

When force on the bullet is zero, then $0=600-2 \times 10^{5} t$

or $\quad t=\frac{600}{2 \times 10^{5}}=3 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{s}$

Now, $\quad I=\int_{0}^{t} F d t=\int_{0}^{3 \times 10^{-3}}\left(600-2 \times 10^{5} t\right) d t$

$=\left[600 t-\frac{2 \times 10^{5} \times t^{2}}{2}\right]_{0}^{3 \times 10^{-3}}$

$=\left[600 \times 3 \times 10^{-3}-10^{5} \times 9 \times 10^{-6}\right]$

$=\left\lceil 18 \times 10^{-1}-0.9\right\rceil=\lceil 1.8-0.9\rceil= 0.9 N-s$
