<span> Let,
initial velocity = v m/sec,

Angle, x = 40 degrees,

horizontal-componant = v.cos(x) = 12 m/sec,
OR,
v = 12 / cos(40) = 12/0.766 = 15.67 meters/sec >================< ANSWER </span> Source(s): Fazaldin A <span> · 4 years ago </span>

Answer:

Magnitude of initial velocity = Vi = 15.7 m/s

Explanation:

Horizontal component of velocity = Vi × Cosθ = 12   ……….. (i)

Where,  

θ  = Angle at which ball is thrown above the horizontal = 40 degrees  

Put θ = 40 degrees in equation (i),

Vi × Cos(40)= 12

Vi = 12/ Cos(40)

Vi = 12/0.766

Vi = 15.66 m/s

Vi = 15.7 m/s

Valentin [98]

We know that the acceleration due to gravity g is: g = 9.81 m/s^2

So the centripetal acceleration (w) is:

w^2 = 1.5 g / r

w^2 = 1.5 * (9.81 m/s^2) / 5 m

w = 1.716 rad / s

To convert to rad to rev:

w = (1.716 rad / s) * (1 rev / 2π rad) * (60 s/min)

<span>w = 16.4 rev/min </span>
