- An object is launched horizontally at a height of 30 m with an initial velocity of 20 m/s. The x-component of the initial velocity is: answer choices 20 m/s 0 m/s 15 m/s not enough informationarrow_forwardA swimmer bounces straight up from a diving board and falls feet first into a pool. She starts with a velocity of 4.0 m/s, and her takeoff point is 1.1 m above the pool. Which of these two valid methods is the easiest to find how long her feet are in the air? Group of answer choices Break the problem in two parts. For part 1, find the time to reach her highest point by using v0 = 4 m/s, a = -9.8 m/s2, and vf = 0 m/s. For part 2, you can use the highest point above the board found in the previous problem and add it to her height above the pool. Then, using v0 = 0 m/s and a = -9.8 m/s2, you can find the time to reach the ground. Since you only care about the end points in this case, you can use v0 = 4 m/s, a = -9.8 m/s2, and Δy = -1.1 m to find the time to reach the ground.arrow_forwardA student launches a small rocket which starts from rest at ground level. At a height h=1.04km, the rocket reaches a speed of vf=391m/s. At that height, the rocket runs out of fuel, so there is no longer any thrust propelling it. After the rocket's engine turns off at a height of h=1.04km, it continues to move upward due to the velocity that it reached. What is the rocket's acceleration, in meters per squared second, during the period from engine shutoff until it returns to the ground? Ignore air resistance.arrow_forward
