Problem 4.41
Each of the two rubber tubes of the wrist rocket has an unstretched length
L0D1ft
. They are symmetrically pulled back so that
`D3ft
and then are
released from rest. The pellet
P
that is launched by the wrist rocket weighs
0:145 oz
. Neglect the mass of the rubber tubes and any change in height of the
pellet while it is in contact with the rubber tubes. Finally, let dD1:5 in:
If the desired launch speed of the pellet
P
is
100 mph
, determine the
required stiffness of each rubber tube.
Solution
NOTE: The quantity dD1:5 in:
