Flak Posted July 3, 2006 Posted July 3, 2006 Hello, I want to determine the kinetic impact by meter square. The data I have is: speed, weight, diameter and lenght of the object.
Flak Posted July 3, 2006 Author Posted July 3, 2006 I want to determine the kinetic force of WW2 aircraft MGs.
Flak Posted July 3, 2006 Author Posted July 3, 2006 What do you mean by "kinetic force"? http://jersey.uoregon.edu/vlab/KineticEnergy/
Klaynos Posted July 3, 2006 Posted July 3, 2006 Kinetic energy: [math] E=\frac 1 2 mv^2[/math] Net Force: F=ma = applied - friction force friction force <= Ru (R is the normal force and u is the coeficient of friction, I may be incorrect with this equation) Impulse = Change in momentum Momentum = mv Other than that I don't get what you're asking...
insane_alien Posted July 3, 2006 Posted July 3, 2006 maybe the pressure exherted by the projectile impacting a surface?
Flak Posted July 4, 2006 Author Posted July 4, 2006 maybe the pressure exherted by the projectile impacting a surface? Yes, but oriented on the relationship between weight and speed.
insane_alien Posted July 4, 2006 Posted July 4, 2006 you need to know how long it took to come to a complete stop or at leats finish accelerating due to the force of impact.
Flak Posted July 4, 2006 Author Posted July 4, 2006 you need to know how long it took to come to a complete stop or at leats finish accelerating due to the force of impact. Ah yes, the range it could be up to 1000 meters, altough the common range will be under 500 meters.
