You toss a walnut at a speed of 15.0 m/s at an angle of 50.0∘ above the horizontal. The launch point is on the roof of a building that is 20.0 m above the ground.


a)How long after it is launched does the walnut reach the ground?

b)How far does the walnut travel horizontally from launch point to landing point?

c) What are the horizontal and vertical components of the walnut’s velocity just before it reaches the ground? Suppose that the +y-axis is directed upward and the +x-axis is directed horizontally from the launch point toward the landing point.

Answer:

a.3.51s

b.33.8m

c. 9.64,-22.9

Explanation:

(a) The time taken be "3.5083 sec".

(b) The distance will be "33.82 m".

(c) The horizontal and vertical components be "9.64 m/s and -22.89 m/s".

Velocity and Direction

According to the question,

Speed, V₀x = 15 Cos (50.0°)

                   = 9.64 m/s

            V₀y = 15 Sin (50.0°)

                   = 11.49 m/s

Vertical displacement = -20.0 m

(a) We know the relation between displacement, time and acceleration

→  y = vt + [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]at²

By substituting the values,

→ -20.0 = 11.49 t - 4.9 t²

  4.9 t² - 11.49 t - 20.0 = 0

                                   t = [tex]\frac{11.49 + \sqrt{132.02+392} }{9.8}[/tex]

                                     = [tex]\frac{11.49 + 22.89}{9.8}[/tex]

                                     = 3.5083 sec

(b) We know the formula,

Distance = Speed × Time

or,

→ X = 9.64 t

      = 9.64 × 3.5083

      = 33.82 m

(c) Again by using the above relation, we get

    Vx = V₀x

          = 9.64 m/s

    Vy = V₀y - gt

By substituting the values,

          = 11.49 - 9.8 × 3.5083

          = 11.49 - 34.38

          = -22.89 m/s

Thus the response above is correct.
