HELP PLEASE!!!!
1 answer:
The distance travelled by the ball is 43.2 m
Explanation:
The motion of the ball is a projectile motion, which consists of two independent motions:
- A uniform motion (constant velocity) along the horizontal direction
- A uniformly accelerated motion, with constant acceleration (acceleration of gravity) in the downward direction
Here, we want to find the (horizontal) distance travelled by the ball before hitting the ground. Therefore, we can just consider the horizontal motion of the ball.
Since it is a uniform motion, we can write:
where
v = 13.5 m/s is the horizontal speed
t = 3.2 s is the time of flight
Solving for d, we find

Refer to the diagram shown below.
Assume that air resistance is ignored.
Note:
The distance, h, of a falling object with initial vertical velocity of zero at time t is
h = (1/2)gt²
where
g = 9.8 m/s²
The initial vertical velocity of the supplies is 0 m/s.
It the time taken for the supplies to reach the ground is t, then
(50 m) = (1/2)*(9.8 m/s²)*(t s)²
Hence obtain
t² = 50/4.9 = 10.2041
t = 3.1944 s
The horizontal distance traveled at a speed of 100 m/s is
d = (100 m/s)*(3.1944 s) = 319.44 m
Answer: 319.4 m (nearest tenth)
