The magnitude of velocity will change and the direction will not. The direction of velocity will change and the magnitude will not. Both the magnitude and direction will change.arrow_forwardA projectile is fired with initial speed 150 m/s and an angle of elevation 45° from a position 10 m above ground level. Where does the projectile hit the ground and with what speed? Solution If we place the origin at ground level, then the initial position of the projectile is (0, 10) and so we need to adjust the parametric equations of the trajectory by adding 10 to the expression for y. With v0 = 150 m/s, ? = 45°, and g = 9.8 m/s2, we have x = 150 cos ? 4 t = y = 10 + 150 sin ? 4 t − 1 2 (9.8)t2 = . Impact occurs when y = 0, that is 4.9t2 − 75 2 t − 10 = 0. Solving this quadratic equation (and using only the positive value of t), we get the following. (Round your answer to two decimal places.) t = 75 2 + 11,250 + 196 9.8 ≈ Then x ≈ 75 2 (21.74) ≈ (rounded to the nearest whole number), so the projectile hits the ground about…arrow_forward
- 5. Review. A snowmobile is originally at the point with posi- tion vector 29.0 m at 95.0° counterclockwise from the x axis, moving with velocity 4.50 m/s at 40.0°. It moves with constant acceleration 1.90 m/s² at 200°. After 5.00 s have elapsed, find (a) its velocity and (b) its position vector.arrow_forwardSusan is an airline pilot flying from one city to another city 1357 km away due east. Her airplane is capable of flying 590 km/h in still air. In the absence of wind, she would simply aim her airplane due east and arrive at her destination 2.30 h later (a very simple Chapter 2 question). Unfortunately for her (and for you), there is a cross-wind (due north or due south -- you need to figure out which direction) which remains constant througout her trip. To account for the wind, she aims the airplane in the direction 27.0° south of east. City #1 City #2 Draw a vector diagram showing how the velocities of the plane relative to the air (õpA), а. plane relative to the ground (õpg), and air relative to the ground (VAG) are related to one another. The following should be obvious from your diagram: (1) the direction of each velocity vector, and (2) which two velocities add up to the third. b. Calculate the wind speed. C.
