A projectile is launched at ground level with an initial speed of 54.5 m/s at an angle of 35.0° above the horizontal. It strikes

a target above the ground 2.80 seconds later. What are the x and y distances from where the projectile was launched to where it lands?

<h2>Answer: x=125m, y=48.308m</h2>

Explanation:

This situation is a good example of the projectile motion or parabolic motion, in which we have two components: x-component and y-component. Being their main equations to find the position as follows:

x-component:

x=V_{o}cos\theta t   (1)

Where:

V_{o}=54.5m/s is the projectile's initial speed

\theta=35\° is the angle

t=2.80s is the time since the projectile is launched until it strikes the target

x  is the final horizontal position of the projectile (the value we want to find)

y-component:

y=y_{o}+V_{o}sin\theta t-\frac{gt^{2}}{2}   (2)

Where:

y_{o}=0  is the initial height of the projectile (we are told it  was launched at ground level)

y  is the final height of the projectile (the value we want to find)

g=9.8m/s^{2}  is the acceleration due gravity

Having this clear, let's begin with x (1):

x=(54.5m/s)cos(35\°)(2.8s)   (3)

x=125m   (4)  This is the horizontal final position of the projectile

For y (2):

y=0+(54.5m/s)sin(35\°)(2.8s)-\frac{(9.8m/s^{2})(2.8s)^{2}}{2}   (5)

y=48.308m   (6)  This is the vertical final position of the projectile

Combine these three velocity vectors into a resultant: 3.0 m/s north, 4.0 m/s east 1.0 m/s west. Identify the resultant vector
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

The resultant vector is 1 m/s

Explanation:

The resultant vector is 1 m/s west based on triangle law of vector addition, when two sides of a triangle is represented by two vectors, the resultant vector is the third side of the triangle.

Work out the kinetic energy of a 2.5 kg remote-controlled car that is moving at 2 m/s.
lbvjy [14]

Answer: 5 joules

Explanation:

mass=m=2.5kg

Velocity=v=2m/s

Kinetic energy=ke

ke=(m x v x v)/2

ke=(2.5 x 2 x 2)/2

Ke=10/2

Ke=5

Kinetic energy=5 joules
