Question

A rocket lifts off its launching pad with a vertical velocity of 20. m/s and 

a horizontal velocity of 60. m/s. What are the magnitude and direction 

of its resultant velocity?

Expert Solution
Check Mark
Step 1

Given data

The vertical velocity of the rocket is vy = 20 m/s.

The horizontal velocity of the rocket is vx = 60 m/s.

 

The resultant magnitude of the velocity is given as,

v=vx2+vy2v=60 m/s2+20 m/s2v=63.24 m/s

Thus, the resultant velocity is 63.24 m/s.
