Answer:

v = 49.05 m/s^2

Explanation:

Let's use the uniform acceleration equation to find our final velocity.

v = u + at

v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

a = gravitational acceleration

t = time taken

Assuming the rock is at rest initially, u becomes zero.

v = 0 + 9.81(5)

v = 49.05 m/s^2

The motion described here is a projectile motion which is characterized by an arc-shaped direction of motion. There are already derived equations for this type of motions as listed:

Hmax = v₀²sin²θ/2g
t = 2v₀sinθ/g
y = xtanθ + gx²/(2v₀²cos²θ)

where

Hmax = max. height reached by the object in a projectile motion
θ=angle of inclination
v₀= initial velocity
t = time of flight
x = horizontal range
y = vertical height

Part A. 

Hmax = v₀²sin²θ/2g = (30²)(sin 33°)²/2(9.81)
Hmax = 13.61 m

Part B. In this part, we solve the velocity when it almost reaches the ground. Approximately, this is equal to y = 28.61 m and x = 31.91 m. In projectile motion, it is important to note that there are two component vectors of motion: the vertical and horizontal components. In the horizontal component, the motion is in constant speed or zero acceleration. On the other hand, the vertical component is acting under constant acceleration. So, we use the two equations of rectilinear motion:

y = v₀t + 1/2 at²
28.61 = 30(t) + 1/2 (9.81)(t²)
t = 0.839 seconds

a = (v₁-v₀)/t
9.81 = (v₁ - 30)/0.839
v₁ = 38.23 m/s

Part C. 
y = xtanθ + gx²/(2v₀²cos²θ)
Hmax + 15 = xtanθ + gx²/(2v₀²cos²θ)
13.61 + 15 = xtan33° + (9.81)x²/[2(30)²(cos33°)²]
Solving using a scientific calculator,
x = 31.91 m

When a small object is launched from the surface of a fictitious planet with a speed of 52.9 m/s, its final speed when it is ver
NISA [10]

Answer:

The escape speed of the planet is 41.29 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed = 52.9 m/s

Final speed = 32.3 m/s

We need to calculate the launched with excess kinetic energy

Using formula of kinetic energy

K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times m\times(32.3)^2

We need to calculate the escape speed of the planet

Using formula of kinetic energy

\text{escape kinetic energy}=\text{launch kinetic energy}-\text{excess kinetic energy}

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2-\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

\dfrac{1}{2}\times v^2=\dfrac{1}{2}\times(52.9)^2-\dfrac{1}{2}\times(32.3)^2

v=\sqrt{2\times(\dfrac{1}{2}\times(52.9)^2-\dfrac{1}{2}\times(32.3)^2)}

v=41.29\ m/s

Hence, The escape speed of the planet is 41.29 m/s.
