A long jumper can jump a distance of 7.4 m when he takes off at an angle of 45° with respect to the horizontal. Assuming he can

jump with the same initial speed at all angles, how much distance does he lose (in m) by taking off at 429?

Answer:

0.02 m

Explanation:

R₁ = initial distance jumped by jumper = 7.4 m

R₂ = final distance jumped by jumper = ?

θ₁ = initial angle of jump = 45°

θ₂ = final angle of jump = 42.9°

v = speed at which jumper jumps at all time

initial distance jumped is given as

R_{1}=\frac{v^{2}Sin2\theta _{1} }{g}

final distance jumped is given as

R_{2}=\frac{v^{2}Sin2\theta _{2} }{g}

Dividing final distance by initial distance

\frac{R_{2}}{R_{1}}=\frac{Sin2\theta _{1}}{Sin2\theta _{2}}

\frac{R_{2}}{7.4}=\frac{Sin2(42.9)}{Sin2(45))}

R_{2} =7.38

distance lost is given as

d = R_{1} - R_{2}

d = 7.4 - 7.38

d = 0.02 m

The big bang is how astronomers explain the way the universe began. It is the idea that the universe began as just a single point, then expanded and stretched to grow as large as it is right now (and it could still be stretching).

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

4.5 m/s

Explanation:

The rock must barely clear the shelf below, this means that the horizontal distance covered must be

d_x = 5 m

while the vertical distance covered must be

d_y = 6 m

The rock is thrown horizontally with velocity v_x, so we can rewrite the horizontal distance as

d_x = v_x t

where t is the time of flight. Re-arranging the equation,

t=\frac{d_x}{v_x} (1)

The vertical distance covered instead is

d_y = \frac{1}{2}gt^2

where we omit the term ut since the initial vertical velocity is zero. From this equation,

t=\sqrt{\frac{2d_y}{g}} (2)

Equating (1) and (2), we can solve the equation to find v_x:

\frac{d_x}{v_x}=\sqrt{\frac{2d_y}{g}}\\\frac{d_x^2}{v_x^2}=\frac{2d_y}{g}\\v_x = d_x \sqrt{\frac{g}{2d_y}}=5\sqrt{\frac{9.8}{2(6)}}=4.5 m/s
