Answer:
Explanation:
Let 100 m/s be the velocity of projection.
So horizontal component
= 100 cos42
= 74.31 m /s
Vertical component = - 100 sin 42 . in upward direction
66.91 m/s
Net displacement = 2.1 downwards ( + ve )
Using s = ut + 1/2 gt²
2.1 = - 66.91 t + .5 x 9.8 x t²
4.9 t² - 66.91 t - 2.1 = 0
t = 13.685 s
Horizontal distance covered
= 13.685 x 74.31
= 1016.93 m
If angle of projction is 40°
So horizontal component
= 100 cos40
= 76.60 m /s
Vertical component = - 100 sin 42 . in upward direction
64.27 m/s
Net displacement = 2.1 downwards ( + ve )
Using s = ut + 1/2 gt²
2.1 = -76.60 t + .5 x 9.8 x t²
4.9 t² - 76.60 t - 2.1 = 0
t = 15.659 s
Horizontal distance covered
= 15.659 x 76.60
= 1199.49 m
So horizontal range is increased , if angle of projection is increased .
It starts to melt the minerals in within the earths core.
