Answer:
3.62m/s and 2.83m/s
Explanation:
Apply conservation of momentum
For vertical component,
Pfy = Piy
m* Vof (sin38) - m*Vgf (sin52) = 0
Divide through by m
Vof(sin38) - Vgf(sin52) = 0
Vof(sin38) = Vgf(sin52)
Vof (sin38/sin52) = Vgf
0.7813Vof = Vgf
For horizontal component
Pxf= Pxi
m* Vof (cos38) - m*Vgf (cos52) = m*4.6
Divide through by m
Vof(cos38) + Vgf(cos52) = 4.6
Recall that
0.7813Vof = Vgf
Vof(cos38) + 0.7813 Vof(cos52) = 4.6
0.7880Vof + 0.4810Vof = 4.
1.269Vof = 4.6
Vof = 4.6/1.269
Vof = 3.62m/s
Recall that
0.7813Vof = Vgf
Vgf = 0.7813 * 3.62
Vgf = 2.83m/s
