You are watching an archery tournament when you
start wondering how fast an arrow is shot from the
bow. Remembering your physics, you ask one of
the archers to shoot an arrow parallel to the
ground. Unfortunately the archer stands on an
elevated platform of unknown height. However, you
find the arrow stuck in the ground 58.0 m away,
making a 3.00 angle with the ground
Part A
How fast was the arrow shot?
Hint: In this question, you do not need to know the initial y-position of the arrow, nor should you assume a
value. . The final direction of the arrow indicates the ratio of the v_y/v_x. So tan(final_angle with respect to
the x-axis)= v_y/v_x but neither v_y, nor v_x are known. Since the arrow initially was fired horizontally, it only
has an x component of velocity at first, and since there is no acceleration in x, v_x final= v_x initial. So you
only need to find v_x final to get the initial velocity. You need another equation that relates v_y and v_x. Well,
v_y -gt and you can get t…
Two 4. A person simultaneously throws two objects A and B into the air. Objects are thrown with the same speed, different angles, and move along different parabolic paths as shown in the figure on the right. Rock is projected from the edge of the top of a building with an initial velocity of 12.2 m / s at an angle of 53 ° above the horizontal. The stone hits the ground at a horizontal distance of 25 m from the base of the building. Suppose the ground is level and the building part is vertical. How tall is the building?
