The cup, on the 9th hole of a golf course, is located, dead center, in the middle of a circular green, which is 35 feet in radiu

s. The ball follows a straight-line path, and exits the green at the right-most edge. Assume the ball travels 11 ft/sec. Introduce coordinates, so that the cup is the origin of an xy-coordinate system. Provide numerical answers below, with two decimal places of accuracy. Ball starts at (-40,-50). Suppose that L is a line, tangent to the boundary of the golf green, and parallel to the path of the ball. Let Q be the point where the line is tangent to the circle. Notice that there are two possible positions for Q. Find the possible x-coordinates of Q.

Answer:

± 27.33 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

For the given problem, we can estimate the initial and final coordinates of the line of the ball path as (-40,-50) and (0,0). Therefore, the slope is:

(-50-0)/(-40-0) = 50/40 = 1.25

Similarly, we can estimate the slope of a perpendicular line to the line of the ball path as: -1*(1/1.25) = -0.8.

Therefore, using (0,0) and the slope -0.8, the equation of the perpendicular line is: -0.8 = (y-0)/(x-0);

-0.8 = y/x

y = -0.8x

Furthermore, we are given the circle radius as 35 ft and we can use the distance formula to find the two points 35 ft far from the origin:

35^2 = x^2 + y^2

y = -0.8x

35^2 = x^2 + (-0.8x)^2

1225 = (x^2 + 0.64x^2)

1225 = 1.64x^2

x^2 = 1225/1.64 = 746.95

x = sqrt(746.95) = ± 27.33 ft

Answer:−47.0

Step-by-step explanation:Step 1. List horizontal (xxx) and vertical (yyy) variables

xxx-direction yyy-direction

t=\text?t=?t, equals, start text, question mark, end text t=\text?t=?t, equals, start text, question mark, end text

a_x=0a

a, start subscript, y, end subscript, equals, minus, 9, point, 8, start fraction, start text, m, end text, divided by, start text, s, end text, squared, end fraction

\Delta x=12\,\text mΔx=12mdelta, x, equals, 12, start text, m, end text \Delta y=\text ?Δy=?delta, y, equals, start text, question mark, end text

v_x=v_{0x}v

v, start subscript, x, end subscript, equals, v, start subscript, 0, x, end subscript v_y=\text ?v

y

​

=?v, start subscript, y, end subscript, equals, start text, question mark, end text

v_{0x}=2.5\,\dfrac{\text m}{\text s}v

0x

​

=2.5

s

m

​

v, start subscript, 0, x, end subscript, equals, 2, point, 5, start fraction, start text, m, end text, divided by, start text, s, end text, end fraction v_{0y}=0v

0y

​

=0v, start subscript, 0, y, end subscript, equals, 0

Note that there is no horizontal acceleration, and the time is the same for the xxx- and yyy-directions.

Also, the pumpkin has no initial vertical velocity.

Our yyy-direction variable list has too many unknowns to solve for v_yv

y

​

v, start subscript, y, end subscript directly. Since both the yyy and xxx directions have the same time ttt and horizontal acceleration is zero, we can solve for ttt from the xxx-direction motion by using equation:

\Delta x=v_xtΔx=v

x

​

tdelta, x, equals, v, start subscript, x, end subscript, t

Once we know ttt, we can solve for v_yv

y

​

v, start subscript, y, end subscript using the kinematic equation that does not include the unknown variable \Delta yΔydelta, y:

v_y=v_{0y}+a_ytv

y

​

y

​

tv, start subscript, y, end subscript, equals, v, start subscript, 0, y, end subscript, plus, a, start subscript, y, end subscript, t

Hint #22 / 4

Step 2. Find ttt from horizontal variables

\begin{aligned}\Delta x&=v_{0x}t \\\\ t&=\dfrac{\Delta x}{v_{0x}} \\\\ &=\dfrac{12\,\text m}{2.5\,\dfrac{\text m}{\text s}} \\\\ &=4.8\,\text s \end{aligned}

Step 3. Find v_yv

y

​

v, start subscript, y, end subscript using ttt

Using ttt to solve for v_yv

y

​

v, start subscript, y, end subscript gives:

\begin{aligned}v_y&=v_{0y}+a_yt \\\\ &=\cancel{0\,\dfrac{\text m}{\text s}}+\left(-9.8\,\dfrac{\text m}{\text s}\right)(4.8\,\text s) \\\\ &=-47.0\,\dfrac{\text m}{\text s} \end{aligned}
