Detailed Procedure to Calculate Impact Force for m = 432 lb, v = 473 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 = 432 lb & Velocity = 473 ft/s & Distance = 0.1 ft:

Given that,

mass (m) = 432 lb

velocity (v) = 473 ft/s

distance (d) = 0.1 ft

Convert the mass 432 lb to "Kilograms (kg)"

Mass in Kg = 432 ÷ 2.204623

Mass in kg = 195.9519 kg

Convert Velocity value 473 ft/s to " m/s"

Velocity in m/s = 473 ÷ 3.281

Velocity in m/s = 144.2073 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 =
195.9519 x (144.2073)2 / 0.0305

F = 66849819.913863 N

∴ Imapct Force (F) = 66849819.913863 N
