A boy 12.0 m above the ground in a tree throws a ball for his dog, who is standing right below the tree and starts running the i

nstant the ball is thrown. If the boy throws the ball horizontally at 8.50 m/s, (a) how fast must the dog run to catch the ball just as it reaches the ground, and (b) how far from the tree will the dog catch the ball?

Answer:

Explanation:

Height covered = 12m

time to fall by 12 m

s = 1/2 gt²

12 = 1/2 g t²

t = 1.565 s

Horizontal distance of throw

= 8.5 x 1.565

= 13.3 m

This distance is to be covered by dog during the time ball falls ie 1.565 s

Speed of dog required = 13.3 / 1.565

= 8.5 m /s

b ) dog will catch the ball at a distance of 13.3 m .

Which of the following is a vector quantity?
djverab [1.8K]

Vector quantity is defined by direction as well as magnitude both

so now lets discuss all option

1) distance = it is total path length between two points so there is no direction needed in it so it is scalar

2) Speed = it is ratio of total distance covered and total time, so it also do not require any direction.

<em>3)velocity = it is ratio of displacement and time, and displacement is always given with direction so velocity is a vector quantity</em>

4) time = time is the measurement of the interval of two events and we do not require any direction in it so its a scalar quantity.
