From the edge of a cliff, a 0.55 kgprojectile is launched with an initial kinetic energy of 1550 J. The projectile鈥檚 maximum upward displacement from the launch point is +140 m. What are the (a) horizontal and (b) vertical components of its launch velocity? (c) At the instant the vertical component of its velocity is 65 m/s, what is its vertical displacement from the launch point?

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. Horizontal component of velocity of projectile is,vx=54ms
  2. Vertical component of the velocity of projectile is,v1y2=52ms
  3. If vertical component of projectile velocity then, its vertical displacement from the launch point is,y=-76m

Step by step solution

01

Given

  1. The mass of the projectile is,m=0.55kg.
  2. The initial kinetic energy is,K1=1550.
  3. The maximum upward displacement is,y=140m.
  4. The vertical component of projectile velocity vy=65ms.
02

Determine the concept and the kinetic energy:

By using equation for kinetic energy Kand potential energy U and applying mechanical conservation of energy, we can find the horizontal and vertical components of the velocity of the projectile. For vertical displacement at a given vertical component of the velocity of the projectile we have to apply a kinematic equation to find its value.

Formula:

The kinetic energy is,

K=12mvx2

The potential energy is,U=mgy

The mechanical energy conservation,K=K1-U

The kinematic equation is,vy2=v1y2-2gy

03

(a) Calculate the horizontal vertical component of the launch velocity 

Write the expression for the kinetic energy as:

K=12mvx2K=120.55vx2

Also, its potential energy is given by,

U=mgyU=0.559.8140U=755J

Thus, by mechanical energy conservation and solve:

K=K1-U=1550-755=795J

But, kinetic energyK=120.55vx2 solve for the velocity as:

vx=2K0.55vx=54ms

04

(b) Calculate the vertical component of the launch velocity 

Ifvx=v1x=54ms, so that the initial kinetic energy is solved as:

K1=12mv1x2-v1y2v1y2=542-215500.55v1y2=52ms

05

(c) Calculate the vertical displacement from the launch point qt the instant the vertical component of its velocity is 65ms

Applying kinematic equation,

vy2=v1y2-2gyy=v1y2-yy22gy=522-65229.8y=-76m

The negative shows us it is below its launch point.

You push a 2.0 kg block against a horizontal spring, compressing the spring by 15 cm. Then you release the block, and the spring sends it sliding across a tabletop. It stops 75 cm from where you released it. The spring constant is 200N/m. What is the block-table coefficient of kinetic friction?

The arrangement shown in Fig. 8-24 is similar to that in Question 6. Here you pull downward on the rope that is attached to the cylinder, which fits tightly on the rod. Also, as the cylinder descends, it pulls on a block via a second rope, and the block slides over a lab table. Again consider the cylinder鈥搑od鈥揈arth system, similar to that shown in Fig. 8-23b. Your work on the system is 200J.The system does work of 60Jon the block. Within the system, the kinetic energy increases by 130Jand the gravitational potential energy decreases by 20 J. (a) Draw an 鈥渆nergy statement鈥 for the system, as in Fig. 8-23c. (b) What is the change in the thermal energy within the system?

In Fig. 8-32, a ice flake is released from the edge of a hemisphere bowl whose radius ris 22.0鈥塩尘. The flake-bowl contact is frictionless. (a) How much work is done on the flake by the gravitational force during the flake鈥檚 descent to the bottom of the bowl? (b) What is the change in the potential energy of the flake-Earth system during that descent? (c) If that potential energy is taken to be zero at the bottom of the bowl, what is its value when the flake is released? (d) If, instead, the potential energy is taken to be zero at the release point, what is its value when the flake reaches the bottom of the bowl? (e) If the mass of the flake were doubled, would the magnitudes of the answers to (a) through (b) increase, decrease, or remain the same?

Two snowy peaks are at heightsH=850m andh=750m above the valley between them. A ski run extends between the peaks, with a total length of 3.2 km and an average slope of=30 (Fig. 8-61). (a) A skier starts from rest at the top of the higher peak. At what speed will he arrive at the top of the lower peak if he coasts without using ski poles? Ignore friction. (b) Approximately what coefficient of kinetic friction between snow and skis would make him stop just at the top of the lower peak?

Tarzan, who weighs 688 N , swings from a cliff at the end of a vine 18 m long (Figure). From the top of the cliff to the bottom of the swing, he descends by 3.2 m . The vine will break if the force on it exceeds 950 N . (a) Does the vine break? (b) If no, what is the greatest force on it during the swing? If yes, at what angle with the vertical does it break?
