If the position of the planet is observed relative to the background stars, the planet will appear to move backward relative to the stars when the earth is moving in an Eastward direction faster than the planet, and the planet appears to move backwards relative to the stars

(The planet will be on the side of the earth that is opposite that of the sun)

Lucia kicks a ball on a level playing field with an initial velocity of 11.3 m/s at an angle of 35° above the horizontal. Find:

grandymaker [24]

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial velocity, u = 11.3 m/s

Angle above the horizontal, $\theta=35^{\circ}$

Time of flight :

$t=\dfrac{2u\sin\theta}{g}\\\\t=\dfrac{2\times 11.3\times \sin(35)}{9.8}\\\\t=1.32\ s$

Horizontal distance traveled is given by :

x = ut

x = 11.3 m/s × 1.32 s

x = 14.916 m

Maximum height is given by :

$H=\dfrac{u^2\sin^2\theta}{2g}\\\\H=\dfrac{(11.3)^2\times \sin^2(35)}{2\times 9.8}\\\\H=2.14\ m$

Hence, time of flight is 1.32 s, horizontal distance is 14.916 m and maximum height is 2.14 m.
