Detailed Procedure to Calculate Impact Force for m = 238 lb, v = 279 ft/s & d = 0.1 ft

The formula for impact force expressed in terms of the body's velocity (speed) on impact (v), its mass (m), and the collision distance (d) is the formula below:

F =
m x v2 / d

Where,

F = Impact Force

m = Mass of object

v = velocity

d = collision distance


Step by Step Solution to find impact force of Mass = 238 lb & Velocity = 279 ft/s & Distance = 0.1 ft:

Given that,

mass (m) = 238 lb

velocity (v) = 279 ft/s

distance (d) = 0.1 ft

Convert the mass 238 lb to "Kilograms (kg)"

Mass in Kg = 238 ÷ 2.204623

Mass in kg = 107.955 kg

Convert Velocity value 279 ft/s to " m/s"

Velocity in m/s = 279 ÷ 3.281

Velocity in m/s = 85.061 m/s

Convert Distance value 0.1 ft to " m"

Distance in m = 0.1 ÷ 3.281

Distance in m = 0.0305 m

Substitute the value into the formula

F =
107.955 x (85.061)2 / 0.0305

F = 12813848.2643 N

∴ Imapct Force (F) = 12813848.2643 N
