Finding Impact of m 420 lb and v = 455 mph

Detailed Procedure to Calculate Impact Force for m = 420 lb, v = 455 mph & d = 100 mm

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 = 420 lb & Velocity = 455 mph & Distance = 100 mm:

Given that,

mass (m) = 420 lb

velocity (v) = 455 mph

distance (d) = 100 mm

⇒ Convert the mass 420 lb to "Kilograms (kg)"

Mass in Kg = 420 ÷ 2.204623

Mass in kg = 190.5088 kg

⇒ Convert Velocity value 455 mph to " m/s"

Velocity in m/s = 455 ÷ 2.237

Velocity in m/s = 203.3974 m/s

⇒ Convert Distance value 100 mm to " m"

Distance in m = 100 ÷ 1000

Distance in m = 0.1 m

Substitute the value into the formula

F =
190.5088 x (203.3974)2 / 0.1

F = 39407218.863578 N

∴ Imapct Force (F) = 39407218.863578 N

Impact Force for m = 420 lb, v = 455 mph & d = 100 mm Results in different Units
