When a projectile reaches the highest point the vertical component of the acceleration is:

Physics
1 answer:
Mazyrski [523]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The acceleration is g.

Taking the upward direction as positive

V = Vy y - 1/2 g t^2

Taking the downward direction as positive

V = -V y + 1/2 g t^2

One can choose either direction as positive, but the acceleration is

the same as g (it is g) while the projectile is in the air.

EastWind [94]

Answer:

50N

Explanation:

Force (N) = mass (kg) × acceleration (m/s²)

A cannon is fired with an initial horizontal velocity of 20 m/s and initial vertical velocity of 25 m/s. After 3s in the air, th
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

60 m

Explanation:  

After 3 seconds of travel at 20 m/s, the projectile is 3·20 = 60 meters horizontally from the cannon.

__

The vertical height after 3 seconds is 0.9 m, so the straight-line distance from cannon to target is √(60^2 +0.9^2) ≈ 60.007 meters.

Answer:

1. -8.20 m/s²

2. 73.4 m

3. 19.4 m

Explanation:

1. Apply Newton's second law to the car in the y direction.

∑F = ma

N − mg = 0

N = mg

Apply Newton's second law to the car in the x direction.

∑F = ma

-F = ma

-Nμ = ma

-mgμ = ma

a = -gμ

Given μ = 0.837:

a = -(9.8 m/s²) (0.837)

a = -8.20 m/s²

2. Given:

v₀ = 34.7 m/s

v = 0 m/s

a = -8.20 m/s²

Find: Δx

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

(0 m/s)² = (34.7 m/s)² + 2 (-8.20 m/s²) Δx

Δx = 73.4 m

3. Since your braking distance is the same as the car in front of you, the minimum safe following distance is the distance you travel during your reaction time.

d = v₀t

d = (34.7 m/s) (0.56 s)

d = 19.4 m
