Answer:
Acceleration of gravity=
Explanation:
Newton's Second Law-acceleration is proportional to the net force acting on an object.
All objects usually free fall at the same acceleration of -this regardless of their mass. This acceleration is known as acceleration of gravity.
Refer to the diagram shown below.
Neglect air resistance.
The horizontal component of the launch velocity is
(20 m/s)*cos(37°) = 15.973 m/s
The vertical component of the launch velocity is
(20 m/s)*sin(37°) = 12.036 m/s
The acceleration due to gravity is g =9.8 m/s².
The time, t s, for the ball to reach a height of 3 m is given by
(12.036 m/s)*(t s) - (1/2)*(9.8 m/s²)*(t s)² = (3 m)
12.036t - 4.9t² - 3 = 0
2.4543t - t² - 0.6122 = 0
t² - 2.4563t + 0.6122 = 0
Solve with the quadratic formula.
t = (1/2)[2.4563 +/- √(6.0334 - 2.4488)]
t = 2.1748 or 0.2815 s
The ball reaches a height of 3 m twice.
The first time it reaches 3 m height is 0.2815 s.
Part a.
The vertical velocity when t = 0.2815 s is
Vy = 12.036 - 9.8*0.2815
= 9.2773 m/s
The horizontal component of velocity is Vx = 15.973 m/s
The resultant velocity is
√(9.2773² + 15.973² ) = 18.47 m/s
Answer:
The velocity at a height of 3.0 m is 18.5 m/s (nearest tenth)
Part b.
The horizontal distance traveled is
d = (15.973 m/s)*(0.2815 s) = 4.4964 m
Answer:
The horizontal distance traveled is 4.5 m (nearest tenth)
Neglect air resistance.
The horizontal component of the launch velocity is
(20 m/s)*cos(37°) = 15.973 m/s
The vertical component of the launch velocity is
(20 m/s)*sin(37°) = 12.036 m/s
The acceleration due to gravity is g =9.8 m/s².
The time, t s, for the ball to reach a height of 3 m is given by
(12.036 m/s)*(t s) - (1/2)*(9.8 m/s²)*(t s)² = (3 m)
12.036t - 4.9t² - 3 = 0
2.4543t - t² - 0.6122 = 0
t² - 2.4563t + 0.6122 = 0
