A projectile is fired with an initial speed v0=30.0m/sfrom level ground at a target that is on the ground, at distance R=20.0m, as shown in Fig. 4-59. What are the (a) least and (b) greatest launch angles that will allow the projectile to hit the target?

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a)Least angle of projection is6.290

(b)Greatest angle of projection is83.70

Step by step solution

01

Given information

It is given that,

v0=30.0m/s

R=20.0m

a=9.8m/s

02

Determining the concept

This problem involves kinematic equation of motion that describe the motion of an object with constant acceleration. Also it deals with the resolution of vectors. The resolution of a vector is the splitting of a single vector into two or more vectors in different directions. Here, the angle of projection can be found using components of initial velocity and the distance. The times will be different for different angles. Using kinematic equations, find the angles.

Formula is as follow:

d=v0t+12at2d=v0t+12at2 (i)

where, dis total displacements, v0 is an initial velocity, t is time and a is an acceleration.

03

(a) Determining the least angle of projection

Now, resolve velocity in x and y components,

v0x=v0cosv0y=v0sin

We use the formula of distance for vertical and horizontal range using respective components of initial velocities. The time of flight will be the same for both ranges.

dx=v0xt

R=v0xt

t=20.030.0cos

dy=V0yt+12at2

0=30.0sint+12-9.8t2

Plug value of t from above,

0=30.0sin20.030.0cos-12(9.8)20.030.0cos()2

4.920.030.0cos=(30.0sin

98=30.0sin()30.0cos()98=900sin()cos()

98900=sin22

sin2=298900

localid="1657021544650" =0.2177

2=0.2177

localid="1657022210522" =0.21772=6.290

Therefore, the least angle of projection islocalid="1657022226831" 6.290

04

(b) Determining the greatest angle of projection

Now, the angle should not be more than 900so the greatest angle of projection should be,

localid="1657022270466" =90-6.290=83.70

Therefore, the greatest angle of projection is83.70.

In Fig. 4-40, a ball is launched with a velocity of magnitude10.0m/s, at an angle of 50.0to the horizontal. The launch point is at the base of a ramp of horizontal length d1=6.00mand heightrole="math" localid="1654153249604" d2=3.60m. A plateau is located at the top of the ramp. (a)Does the ball land on the ramp or the plateau? When it lands, what are the (b) magnitude and (c) angle of its displacement from the launch point?

A dart is thrown horizontally with an initial speed of10m/stoward pointP, the bull鈥檚-eye on a dart board. It hits at pointQon the rim, vertically belowP,0.19s later. (a)What is the distancePQ? (b) How far away from the dart board is the dart released?

You are to throw a ball with a speed of 12.0m/sat a target that is height
h=5.00mabove the level at which you release the ball (Fig. 4-58). You want the ball鈥檚 velocity to be horizontal at the instant it reaches the target. (a) At what angle above the horizontal must you throw the ball? (b) What is the horizontal distance from the release point to the target? (c) What is the speed of the ball just as it reaches the target?

You are kidnapped by political-science majors (who are upset because you told them political science is not real science). Although blindfolded, you can tell the speed of their car (by the whine of the engine), the time of travel (by mentally counting off seconds), and the direction of travel (by turns along the rectangular street system). From these clues, you know that you are taken along the following course: 50Km/hfor2.0min, turn 90to the right,20Km/h for4.0min, turn 90to the right, 20Km/hfor60s, turn 90to the left,50Km/hfor60s, turn 90to the right, 20Km/hfor2.0min, turn90 to the left 50Km/hfor30s. At that point, (a) how far are you from your starting point, and (b) in what direction relative to your initial direction of travel are you?

In Fig. 4-55, a ball is shot directly upward from the ground with an initial speed of V0=7.00m/s. Simultaneously, a construction elevatorcab begins to move upward from the ground with a constant speed of Vc=3.00m/s. What maximum height does the ball reach relative to (a) the ground and (b) the cab floor? At what rate does the speed of the ball change relative to (c) the ground and (d) the cab floor?
