Answer:

60.18 N

Explanation:

Given that:

The force applied on the sled = 100 N

Suppose, the angle between the sled rope and the ground = 53°

The horizontal force which acts  in the horizontal direction can be expressed as:

F_x = F \ cos \theta

F_x = 100 \ cos (53)

F_x = 60.18 \ N

But if the angle between the sled rope is parallel to the ground. Then, we use an angle on a straight line which is = 180°

F_x = F \ cos \theta

F_x = 100 \ cos (180)

= 100 × -1

= -100 N

Answer:

a) 4.45 m/s

b) 0.9 seconds

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow -u^2=2as-v^2\\\Rightarrow u=\sqrt{v^2-2as}\\\Rightarrow u=\sqrt{0^2-2\times -9.81\times 1}\\\Rightarrow u=4.45\ m/s

a) The vertical speed when the player leaves the ground is 4.45 m/s

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{v-u}{a}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{0-4.45}{-9.81}\\\Rightarrow t=0.45\ s

Time taken to reach the maximum height is 0.45 seconds

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 1=0t+\frac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\frac{1\times 2}{9.81}}\\\Rightarrow t=0.45\ s

Time taken to reach the ground from the maximum height is 0.45 seconds

b) Time the player stayed in the air is 0.45+0.45 = 0.9 seconds

The y-component of a projectile’s velocity is 12.1 m/s. When the projectile once again passes by the height from which it was la
Nat2105 [25]
It's 12.1 m/s, assuming that's the launch velocity that's given.
For projectile motion, velocity's y-component is parabolic/quadratic. It's x-component is constant, so you don't need to know it.
