Question

Transcribed Image Text:**Problem 29:**
**Instruction:** On the diagram at the right, draw \( V_x \) and \( V_y \) at each point on the projectile’s path.
**Diagram Explanation:**
- The diagram consists of a projectile path on a two-dimensional plane.
- There are five points labeled A, B, C, D, and E.
**Detailed Descriptions:**
- **Point A:**
- At point A, vectors \( V_x \) (horizontal) and \( V_y \) (vertical) are shown.
- \( V_x \) is drawn as a horizontal arrow pointing to the right, indicating the horizontal component of the velocity.
- \( V_y \) is drawn as a vertical arrow pointing upward, indicating the vertical component of the velocity.
- **Points B, C, D, E:**
- These points are marked but not currently connected by vectors \( V_x \) and \( V_y \).
- The task involves determining and drawing the appropriate horizontal and vertical velocity components (\( V_x \) and \( V_y \)) at each of these points on the projectile's trajectory.
**General Instructions:**
- To complete the task, consider the effect of gravity and initial velocity on the projectile's motion.
- Assume the horizontal component \( V_x \) remains constant if no other forces act on it.
- The vertical component \( V_y \) can change due to gravity, typically decreasing on ascent, becoming zero at the peak, and increasing in the negative direction during descent.
