Answer:
Explanation:
According to the described situation we have the following data:
Horizontal distance between lily pads:
Ferdinand's initial velocity:
Time it takes a jump:
We need to find the angle at which Ferdinand jumps.
In order to do this, we first have to find the <u>horizontal component (or x-component)</u> of this initial velocity. Since we are dealing with parabolic movement, where velocity has x-component and y-component, and in this case we will choose the x-component to find the angle:
(1)
(2)
(3)
On the other hand, the x-component of the velocity is expressed as:
(4)
Substituting (3) in (4):
(5)
Clearing :
This is the angle at which Ferdinand the frog jumps between lily pads
