The weight of the pendulum of an impact tester is 451b, and the length of the 27 pendulum arm is 32in. If the arm is horizontal before striking the specimen, what is the potential energy of the tester?What is the striking velocity?

4 m/s.

Explanation:

Given:

W = 45 lb

Converting lb to kg,

45 lb = 20.41 kg

L = 32 in

Converting in to m,

32 in = 81.3 cm

= 0.813 meters

A.

PE = mgh

= 20.41 × 9.81 × 0.813

= 162.78 J

B.

Change in PE = Change in KE

m*g*h = 0.5*m*v²

v = √(2*g*h)

9.8 × 0.813 = 0.5 × v²

v = √(2 × 9.8 × 0.813)

= 4 m/s

graph slopes whilst gas cools, then it is flat whilst conensation to liquid happens, the coolong liquid then graphs as a slope when it solidifies graph is flat
