Answer:
5.0 m/s
Explanation:
The horizontal motion of the salmon is uniform, so the horizontal component of the salmon's velocity is constant and it is
where u is the initial speed and . The horizontal distance travelled by the salmon is
where d = 1.95 m and t is the time needed to reach the final point.
Re-arranging for t,
(1)
Along the vertical direction, the equation of motion is
where:
y = 0.311 m is the final height reached by the salmon
h = 0 is the initial height
is the vertical component of the initial velocity of the salmon
is the acceleration of gravity
t is the time
Substituting t as found in eq.(1), we get the equation
and we can solve this formula for u, the initial speed of the salmon:
