Prove that the trajectory of a projectile is parabolic, having the form y=ax+bx2. To obtain this expression, solve the equation x=v0xt for t and substitute it into the expression for y=v0yt(1/2)gt2 (These equations describe the x and y positions of a projectile that starts at the origin.) You should obtain an equation of the form y=ax+bx2 where a and b are constants.
An athlete has an intuitive knowledge, gained by experience, of the changing nature of a ball in flight. If the athlete ignores the effects of air, the x-component of the velocity changes by the same amount each second. True or False?
why is the projectile motion in 2 directions can be studied as a combination of 2 one directions?
Neglecting the size of the ball, determine the magnitude Va of the basketball's initial velocity and its velocity when it passes through the basket, including its magnitude and direction.
An athlete has an intuitive knowledge, gained by experience, of the changing nature of a ball in flight. If the athlete ignores the effects of air, will the acceleration of the ball change each second? Yes or no?
If the horizontal component of a projectile's initial velocity is 5 m/s, after 4 seconds it will be:
When baseball outfielders throw the ball, they usually allow it to take one bounce, on the theory that the ball arrives at its target sooner that way. Suppose that, after the bounce, the ball rebounds at the same angle θ that it had when it was released (as in Fig. P3.48), but loses half its speed, (a) Assuming that the ball is always thrown with the same initial speed, at what angle θ should the ball be thrown in order to go the same distance D with one bounce as a ball thrown upward at 45.0° with no bounce? (b) Determine the ratio of the times for the one-bounce and no-bounce throws.
The magnitude of the velocity of a projectile remains constant. Is it correct?
In projectile motion explain why the direction of y component of velocity changes both magnitude and direction, and why the x component remain the same.
In the two-dimensional motion, what is the magnitude of the y component of the velocity of the projectile when it is at its apex of trajectory? Select one: a. Velocity is equal to the initial velocity b. Velocity is 9.81 m/s c. Velocity is equal to the x component d. Undetermined e. Velocity is 0 m/s
The record distance in the sport of throwing cowpats is 81.1 m.m. This record toss was set by Steve Urner of the United States in 1981 . Assuming the initial launch angle was 45∘45∘ and neglecting air resistance, determine (a) the initial speed of the projectile and (b) the total time the projectile was in flight.
