As we know that range of the projectile motion is given by
here we know that range will be same for two different angles
so here we can say the two angle must be complementary angles
so the two angles must be
so it is given that one of the projection angle is 75 degree
so other angle for same range must be 90 - 75 = 15 degree
so other projection angle must be 15 degree
Answer:
B 14.5 m/s to the east
Explanation:
We can solve this problem by using the law of conservation of momentum.
In fact, if the system is isolated, the total momentum of the system must be conserved.
Here the total momentum before the stuntman reaches the skateboard is:
where
M = 72.0 kg is the mass of the stuntman
v = 15.0 m/s is his initial velocity (to the east)
The total momentum after the stuntmen reaches the skateboard is:
where
m = 2.50 kg is the mass of the skateboard
v' is the final velocity of the stuntman and the skateboard
Since momentum must be conserved, we have
And solvign for v',
And since the sign is the same as v, the direction is the same (to the east).
