Students have asked these similar questions
If you throw a ball with an initial horizontal velocity of 30 m/s and an initial vertical velocity of 30 m/s.
What will be the vertical displacement after 3 seconds?
A volleyball is thrown with an initial velocity of 30 m/s at an angle 40° above the horizontal?
Answer the Question:
What is the horizontal distance from the starting point will the volleyball attains its original level?
A rookie quarterback throws a football with an initial upward velocity component
of 12 m/s and a horizontal velocity component of 20 m/s. Ignore air resistance.
(a) How much time is required for the football to reach the highest point of the
trajectory? (b) How high is this point? (c) How much time (after it is thrown) is
required for the football to return to its original level? How does this compare with
the time calculated in part (a)? (d) How far has the football travelled horizontally
during this time?
The ball will reach its highest point
at t = 1.22 s, with the highest point
at 7.35 m above its initial position.
The football will return to its original
O level at t = 3.66 s, which is thrice
that of time it took for the football
to reach its highest point. At this
time, it will cover a horizontal
distance of 73.2 m.
The ball will reach its highest point
at t = 1.22 s, with the highest point
at 7.35 m above its initial position.
The football will return to its original
O level at…
