1 newton is the force that accelerates
1 kilogram of mass at the rate of 1 m/s² .
So in SI base units, 1 newton = 1 kg-m/s² .
and 3 kg-m/s² = 3 newtons .
<span>Using the kinematic equations below, we can calculate the initial velocity required.
Angle of projectile = 60 degrees
Acceleration due to gravity (Ay) = -10 m/s^2 (negative because downward)
Height of projectile (Dy) = 2m
Vfy^2=Voy^2 +2*Ay*Dy
Vfy = 0 m/s because the vertical velocity slows to zero at the height of its trajection.
So... 0 = Voy^2 + 2(-10)(2)
0 = Voy^2 - 40
40 = Voy^2
Sqrt40 = Voy
6.32 m/s = Voy
THIS IS NOT THE ANSWER. THIS IS JUST THE INITIAL VELOCITY IN THE Y DIRECTION.
Using trigonometry, Tan 60 = Voy/Vox. Tan 60 = 6.32/Vox. Vox*Tan 60 = Vox
Vox = 10.95 m/s. Now, using Vox = 10.95 and Voy = 6.32, we can use pythagorean theorem to find the total Vo. A^2 +B^2 = C^2
10.95^2 + 6.32^2 = C^2
Solving for C = 12.64 m/s
This is the velocity required to hit the surface. You can also calculate a bunch of other stuff now using the other kinematic equations.
V = 12.64 m/s</span>
