A man stands on his balcony, 130 feet above the ground. He looks at the ground, with his sight line forming an angle of 70° with

the building, and sees a bus stop. The function d = 130 sec θ models the distance from the man to any object given his angle of sight θ. How far is the bus stop from the man? Round your answer to the nearest foot.

Answer:

d =  380 feet

Explanation:

Height of man = perpendicular= 130 feet

Angle of depression = ∅ = 70 °

distance to bus stop from man = hypotenuse = d = 130 sec∅

As sec ∅ = 1 / cos∅

so d = 130 sec∅    or d = 130 / cos∅

d = 130 / cos(70°)

d =  380 feet

Find Vxl and Vyl of a pumpkin launched at a velocity of 55 m/s at an angle of 20 degrees
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

             

Explanation:

is  A projectile is any object on which the only force acting is gravity and air resistance (drag).

Examples of projectiles are:

baseballs and softballs in the air after being hit by the bat

golf balls hit by a club

objects dropped from aircraft, such as people (skydivers), bombs, crates of food being dropped to refugees

objects launched by cannons, such as cannonballs, shells, and circus performers

Once the baseball, softball, golf ball, skydiver, bomb, crate, cannonball, shell, or clown are no longer touching the bat, club, aircraft, or cannon, and are in the air with only gravity and slight air resistance acting on it, then it is a projectile.

Here is an online projectile motion applets to play with, just for fun.

Unless otherwise stated in a particular problem or discussion, we will be ignoring the effects of air resistance.

The key to understanding the motion of projectiles is that the horizontal motion and the vertical motion of the projectile are independent of each other. So we can write separate equations for the displacement of the projectile in the horizontal (x) and vertical (y) directions.

                         

The only common variable between these two equations is t, the time. Because in projectile problems there is usually no acceleration (i.e. we ignore air resistance) in the horizontal direction, we can write

           

The velocity components follow the same equations we used for one-dimensional motion.

                             

Because there is usually no acceleration in the x direction, the x-velocity is constant.
