| 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."
Two balls are thrown off a building with the same speed, one straight up and one at a 45° angle. Which statement is true if air resistance can be ignored?
A rocket is fired at a speed of 75.0 m/s from ground level, at an angle of 60.0° above the horizontal. The rocket is fired toward an 11.0-m-high wall, which is located 27.0 m away. The rocket attains its launch speed in a negligibly short period of time, after which its engines shut down and the rocket coasts. By how much does the rocket clear the top of the wall?
A ball is kicked horizontally off a 20 m tall cliff at a speed of 11 m/s. What is the final velocity of the ball right before it hits the ground?
A circus cannon fires an acrobat into the air at an angle of \( 45^\circ \) above the horizontal, and the acrobat reaches a maximum height \( y \) above her original launch height. The cannon is now aimed so that it fires straight up into the air at an angle of \( 90^\circ \) to the horizontal. In terms of \( y \), what is the acrobat’s new maximum height?
The highest barrier that a projectile can clear is 16.2 m, when the projectile is launched at an angle of 22.0° above the horizontal. What is the projectile’s launch speed?

General Metric Conversion Chart
Example of using unit analysis: Convert 5 kilometers to millimeters.
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]
