Step | Derivation/Formula | Reasoning |
---|---|---|
1 | \( \Delta x = v_{i_x} t \) | Use the horizontal motion formula where \( \Delta x = 32 \, \text{m} \) and solve for \( t \). |
2 | \( v_{i_x} = v_i \cos(\theta) \) | Calculate the initial horizontal velocity using the initial velocity and the angle. |
3 | \( v_{i_x} = 20 \, \text{m/s} \cdot 0.80 = 16 \, \text{m/s} \) | Substitute \( v_i = 20 \, \text{m/s} \) and \( \cos(37^\circ) = 0.80 \) to find \( v_{i_x} \). |
4 | \( 32 \, \text{m} = 16 \, \text{m/s} \cdot t \) | Substitute \( \Delta x = 32 \, \text{m} \) and \( v_{i_x} = 16 \, \text{m/s} \) into the horizontal motion formula. |
5 | \( t = \frac{32 \, \text{m}}{16 \, \text{m/s}} \) | Rearrange to solve for \( t \). |
6 | \( t = 2 \, \text{s} \) | Calculate the value of \( t \). |
So, the time it takes for the ball to reach the plane of the fence is \( \boxed{2 \, \text{s}} \).
Step | Derivation/Formula | Reasoning |
---|---|---|
1 | \( y = v_{i_y} t + \frac{1}{2} a t^2 \) | Use the vertical motion equation to find the height \( y \) at \( t = 2 \, \text{s} \). |
2 | \( v_{i_y} = v_i \sin(\theta) \) | Calculate the initial vertical velocity using the initial velocity and the angle. |
3 | \( v_{i_y} = 20 \, \text{m/s} \cdot 0.60 = 12 \, \text{m/s} \) | Substitute \( v_i = 20 \, \text{m/s} \) and \( \sin(37^\circ) = 0.60 \) to find \( v_{i_y} \). |
4 | \( y = 12 \, \text{m/s} \cdot 2 \, \text{s} + \frac{1}{2} (-9.8 \, \text{m/s}^2) \cdot (2 \, \text{s})^2 \) | Substitute \( t = 2 \, \text{s} \), \( v_{i_y} = 12 \, \text{m/s} \), and \( a = -9.8 \, \text{m/s}^2 \) into the vertical motion formula. |
5 | \( y = 24 \, \text{m} – 19.6 \, \text{m} \) | Calculate the height \( y \). |
6 | \( y = 4.4 \, \text{m} \) | Determine the final value of \( y \) at \( t = 2 \, \text{s} \). |
7 | \( y_{\text{final}} – h_{\text{fence}} = 4.4 \, \text{m} – 2.5 \, \text{m} \) | Compare the calculated height with the fence height (\(2.5 \, \text{m}\)). |
8 | \( \Delta h = 1.9 \, \text{m} \) | Determine how far above the top of the fence the ball passes. |
So, the ball will pass \( \boxed{1.9 \, \text{m}} \) above the top of the fence.
Just ask: "Help me solve this problem."
Measurements made in 1910 indicate that the common flea is an impressive jumper, given its size. Assume that a flea’s initial speed is 2.1 m/s, and that it leaps at an angle of 21° with respect to the horizontal. The jump lasts 0.16 s.
A ball of mass \(m\) is released from rest at a distance \(h\) above a frictionless plane inclined at an angle of \(45^\circ\) to the horizontal as shown above. The ball bounces horizontally off the plane at point \(P_1\) with the same speed with which it struck the plane and strikes the plane again at point \(P_2\). In terms of \(g\) and \(h\), determine each of the following quantities:
A drinking fountain projects water at an initial angle of \( 50^ \circ \) above the horizontal, and the water reaches a maximum height of \( 0.150 \) \( \text{m} \) above the point of exit. Assume air resistance is negligible.
A marble is thrown horizontally with a speed of 15 m/s from the top of a building. When it strikes the ground, the marble has a velocity that makes an angle of 65° with the horizontal. From what height above the ground was the marble thrown?
A projectile is launched at an upward angle of \( 30^\circ \) to the horizontal with a speed of \( 30 \) \( \text{m/s} \). How does the horizontal component of its velocity \( 1.0 \) \( ext{s} \) after launch compare with its horizontal component of velocity \( 2.0 \) \( ext{s} \) after launch, ignoring air resistance?

Example of using unit analysis: Convert 5 kilometers to millimeters.Â
Start with the given measurement: [katex]\text{5 km}[/katex]
Use the conversion factors for kilometers to meters and meters to millimeters: [katex]\text{5 km} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{m}}{1 \, \text{km}} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{mm}}{1 \, \text{m}}[/katex]
Perform the multiplication: [katex]\text{5 km} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{m}}{1 \, \text{km}} \times \frac{10^3 \, \text{mm}}{1 \, \text{m}} = 5 \times 10^3 \times 10^3 \, \text{mm}[/katex]
Simplify to get the final answer: [katex]\boxed{5 \times 10^6 \, \text{mm}}[/katex]
