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."
A block of mass M1 travels horizontally with a constant speed v0 on a plateau of height H until it comes to a cliff. A toboggan of mass M2 is positioned on level ground below the cliff. The center of the toboggan is a distance D from the base of the cliff.
Seo-Jun throws a ball to her friend Zuri. The ball leaves Seo-Jun’s hand from a height \( h = 1.5 \) \( \text{m} \) above the ground with an initial speed \( \vec{v}_{s,0} = 12 \) \( \text{m/s} \) at an angle of \( \theta = 25^\circ \) with respect to the horizontal. Zuri catches the ball at a height of \( h = 1.5 \) \( \text{m} \) above the ground, as shown in the figure.
After catching the ball, Zuri throws it back to Seo-Jun. The ball leaves Zuri’s hand from a height \( h = 1.5 \) \( \text{m} \) above the ground. The ball is moving with a speed of \( 15 \) \( \text{m/s} \) when it reaches a maximum height of \( 5.8 \) \( \text{m} \) above the ground.
At what height \( h’ \) above the ground will the ball be when the return throw reaches Seo-Jun?
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?
A ball of mass \( M \) is attached to a string of length \( L \). It moves in a vertical circle and at the bottom the ball just clears the ground. The tension at the bottom of the path is \( 3 \) times the weight of the ball. Give all answers in terms of \( M \), \( L \), and \( g \).
A ball is kicked at a speed of \( v_0 \) at an angle \( \theta \) above the horizontal. The ball travels 25 meters horizontally. If the ball is kicked at \( 2v_0 \), what will the horizontal displacement be?

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]
