A 1.0 kg football is given an initial velocity at ground level of 20.0 m/s [37 above horizontal]. It gets blocked just after re

aching a height of 3.0 m. (a) What is the velocity of the football when it first reaches a height of 3.0 m above the level ground? (b) What horizontal distance has the ball travelled when it first reaches a height of 3.0 m above ground?

Refer to the diagram shown below.

Neglect air resistance.
The horizontal component of the launch velocity is
 (20 m/s)*cos(37°) = 15.973 m/s
The vertical component of the launch velocity is
 (20 m/s)*sin(37°) = 12.036 m/s

The acceleration due to gravity is g =9.8 m/s².
The time, t s, for the ball to reach a height of 3 m is given by 
(12.036 m/s)*(t s) - (1/2)*(9.8 m/s²)*(t s)² = (3 m)
12.036t - 4.9t² - 3 = 0
2.4543t - t² - 0.6122 = 0
t² - 2.4563t + 0.6122 = 0
Solve with the quadratic formula.
t = (1/2)[2.4563 +/- √(6.0334 - 2.4488)]
t = 2.1748 or 0.2815 s
The ball reaches a height of 3 m twice.
The first time it reaches 3 m height is 0.2815 s.

Part a.
The vertical velocity when t = 0.2815 s is
Vy  = 12.036 - 9.8*0.2815
   = 9.2773 m/s
The horizontal component of velocity is Vx = 15.973 m/s
The resultant velocity is 
√(9.2773² + 15.973² ) = 18.47 m/s
Answer:
The velocity at a height of 3.0 m  is 18.5 m/s (nearest tenth)

Part b.
The horizontal distance traveled is 
d = (15.973 m/s)*(0.2815 s) = 4.4964 m
Answer:
The horizontal distance traveled is 4.5 m (nearest tenth)

Find deacceleration An engineer in a locomotive sees a car stuck on the track at a railroad crossing in front of the train. When
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

The deceleration is  a = -0.7273 \ m/s^2  

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The distance of the car from the crossing is d = 360 \  m

   The speed is u  = 16 \  m/s

    The reaction time of the engineer is  t = 0.53 \ s

Generally the distance covered during the reaction time is  

      d_r = u * t

=>   d_r = 16 * 0.53

=>   d_r = 8.48 \ m

Generally distance of the car from the crossing after the  engineer reacts is

      D = d- d_r        

=> D = 360 - 8.48      

=> D = 352 \ m

Generally from kinematic equation

      v^2 = u^2 + 2as

Here v is the final velocity of the car which is  0 m/s

So

        0^2 = 16^2 + 2 * a * 352

=>    a = -0.7273 \ m/s^2
