Answer:
1058.78 ft/sec
Explanation:
Horizontal Component of Velocity; This is the velocity of a body that act on the horizontal axis. I.e Velocity along x-axis
The horizontal velocity of a body can be calculated as shown below.\
Vh = Vcos∅.......................... Equation 1
Where Vh = horizontal component of the velocity, V = The velocity acting between the horizontal and the vertical axis, ∅ = Angle the velocity make with the horizontal.
Given: V = 1178 ft/sec, ∅ = 26°
Substitute into equation 1
Vh = 1178cos26
Vh = 1178(0.8988)
Vh = 1058.78 ft/sec
Hence the horizontal component of the velocity = 1058.78 ft/sec
Yes it does (not to be mean its kinda stupid for you to ask)
Answer:
14 seconds
Explanation:
Distance covered by sports car is measured with 21*t where t is time.
Distance covered by police is measured with at^2/2(t-time, a-acceleration) as it doesnt have starting velocity. If the distances are equal(police catches sport car)
then we have 21t=3/2*t^2 Solving this equation we get t=14 & t=0;
excluding the starting point we have 14 seconds
