You throw a ball toward a wall at speed25.0m/sand at angleθ0=40.0°above the horizontal (Fig. 4-35). The wall is distanced=22.0mfrom the release point of the ball. (a)How far above the release point does the ball hit the wall? What are the (b)horizontal and (d) vertical components of its velocity as it hits the wall? (e)When it hits, has it passed the highest point on its trajectory?

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a)12.0mAbove the release point does the ball hit the wall

(b) Horizontalcomponent of velocity of ball as it hits the wall is19.2m/s.

(c) Vertical component of velocity of ball as it hits the wall is4.8m/s.

(d) The ball yet not reached the highest point of the trajectory.

Step by step solution

01

Given information

v0=25.0m/sθ=40.0°

Distance of the wall from release point isdx=22.0m

localid="1654583112888" Acceleration=GravitationalAcceleration=-9.8ms2

Determining the concept of kinematic equation

This problem deals with the kinematic equations that describe the motion of an object at constant acceleration.

With the given values of velocity and angle, thetime required to hit the wall can be found. Using the calculated time, the distance how high will it go in that timewill be calculated. Further, using kinematic equations, the final velocity when ball is about to hit the ball can be found.

Formulae:

The final velocity in kinematic equation can be written as

vf2=v02+2ady (i)

Where, dyis the vertical distance which is given by

dy=v0t+12at2 (ii)

The speed is,

v=d1 (iii)

(a) Determining how far above the release point does the ball hit the wall

The velocity on horizontal direction is,

vox=25×cos40=19.15m/s

The velocity on vertical direction is,

v0y=25×sin40.0=16.07m/s

With equation (iii), the time required to reach the wall is,

t=dxvox=22.019.15t=1.15s

With this time the equation (ii) can be given as,

dy=v0t+12at2=16.07×1.15+12×9.8×1.152=18.48-6.48

Thus,

dy=12.0m

04

(b) Determining the horizontal components of the velocity

As there is no acceleration acting in x- direction, the final velocity in the x direction will be the same as that of initial.

vtx=19.2m/s

05

(c) Determining the vertical components of the velocity

Now using equation (i)

vfy2=v0y2+2adyvfy2=v0y2+2dy=16.072-2×9.8×12=258.25-235.2=23.05

Thus

vfy=4.8m/s

06

(d) Determining if ball reached the highest point of the trajectory

When the ball reaches the maximum point of trajectory, its final velocity in the y-direction will be zero. But in this case, the final velocity of the ball when it hits the wall is greater than zero. Thus,the ball yet not reached the highest point of the trajectory.

Thus, the trajectory of the ball can be found using the equation for the path.

(b) At what speed must the train go around a curve with a1.00kmradius to be at the acceleration limit?

An iceboat sails across the surface of a frozen lake with constant acceleration produced by the wind. At a certain instant the boat’s velocity is(6.30i^-8.42j^)m/s. Three seconds later, because of a wind shift, the boat is instantaneously at rest. What is its average acceleration for this 3.00sinterval?

In Fig. 4-25, a cream tangerine is thrown up past windows 1, 2, and 3, which are identical in size and regularly spaced vertically. Rank those three windows according to (a) the time the cream tangerine takes to pass them and (b) the average speed of the cream tangerine during the passage, greatest first. The cream tangerine then moves down past windows 4, 5, and 6, which are identical in size and irregularly spaced horizontally. Rank those three windows according to (c) the time the cream tangerine takes to pass them and (d) the average speed of the cream tangerine during the passage, greatest first.
