Figure 4-26 shows three paths for a football kicked from ground level. Ignoring the effects of air, rank the paths according to (a) time of flight, (b) initial vertical velocity component, (c) initial horizontal velocity component, and (d) initial speed, greatest first.

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. Rank : 1 = 2 = 3
  2. Rank : 1 = 2 = 3
  3. Rank : 3 > 2 > 1
  4. Rank : 3 > 2 > 1

Step by step solution

01

Given information

Trajectory of each path.

h1=h2=h3

02

To understand the concept

It deals with the kinematic equations of motion in which the motion can be described with constant acceleration. Also, this problem is based on the concept of projectile motion. When a particle is thrown near the earth鈥檚 surface, it travels along a curved path under constant acceleration directed towards the center of the earth surface. We can solve this problem by using kinematic equations of projectile motion.

Formulae:

vf2=v0y2+2ayx=v0xt+12axt2

03

(a) To rank the paths according to time of flight

Time of flight will be same, because maximum height is same for all.

(Please refer part b for this)

Thus, Rank : 1 = 2 = 3

04

(b) To rank the paths according to initial vertical velocity component

For vertical motion,

vfy2=v0y2-2gh

At max height,vfy=0

Hence,

v0y2=2gh

As, vertical height is same for all, so initial vertical velocity would be same.

Rank : 1 = 2 = 3

05

(c) To rank the paths according to initial horizontal velocity component

For horizontal motion,ax=0

x=v0xt+12axt2

Hence,

role="math" localid="1660898925170" Range=v0xt

As range R3>R2>R1and same time for all, v0xwill increases withR

Therefore,

Rank : 3 > 2 > 1

06

(d) To rank the paths according to initial speed

As initial vertical components of speed are same for all, so initial speed will be in proportion with horizontal component of initial velocity.

Hence,

Rank : 3 > 2 > 1
