Answer:
1. v = 6.67 m/s
2. d = 9.54 m
Explanation:
1. To find the horizontal velocity of the rock we need to use the following equation:
<u>Where</u>:
d: is the distance traveled by the rock
t: is the time
The time can be calculated as follows:
<u>Where:</u>
g: is gravity = 9.8 m/s²
Now, the horizontal velocity of the rock is:
Hence, the initial velocity required to barely reach the edge of the shell below you is 6.67 m/s.
2. To calculate the distance at which the projectile will land, first, we need to find the time:

So, the distance is:
Therefore, the projectile will land at 9.54 m of the second cliff.

Answer:
T = 2.83701481512 seconds
Explanation:
Hi!
The formula that you will want to use to solve this question is:
T--> period
L --> length of the pendulum
g --> acceleration due to gravity (9.8m/s^2)
since we know that the mass of the bob at the end of the pendulum does not affect the period of the pendulum, we can go ahead and ignore that bit of information (unless, of course, the weight causes the pendulum to stretch)
so now we can plug in our given info into the formula above and solve!
T = 2*pi * sqrt(2/9.8)
T = 2.83701481512 seconds
*Note*
- I used 3.14 to pi, if you need to use a different value for pi (a longer version, etc) your answer will be slightly different
I hope this helped!
Answer:
The horizontal component of the velocity is 188 m/s
The vertical component of the velocity is 50 m/s.
Explanation:
Hi there!
Please, see the figure for a graphic description of the problem. Notice that the x-component of the vector velocity (vx), the y-component (vy) and the vector velocity form a right triangle. Then, we can use trigonometry to obtain the magnitude of vx and vy:
We can find vx using the following trigonometric rule of a right triangle:
cos α = adjacent / hypotenuse
cos 15° = vx / 195 m/s
195 m/s · cos 15° = vx
vx = 188 m/s
The horizontal component of the velocity is 188 m/s
To calculate the y-component we will use the following trigonometric rule:
sin α = opposite / hypotenuse
sin 15° = vy / 195 m/s
195 m/s · sin 15° = vy
vy = 50 m/s
The vertical component of the velocity is 50 m/s.
