Expert Solution
Step 1

When an object is thrown obliquely near the Earth's surface it moves in a curved path. The object is called as projectile and its motion is called as projectile motion. The acceleration of the object is nearly equal to the acceleration due to gravity, g.

Kinematic equations of motion are-

1) v=u+at2) s=ut+12at23) v2=u2+2as

where,
u is initial velocityv is final velocitys is displacementt is timea is acceleration

Step 2

Physics homework question answer, step 2, image 1

Consider downward motion as negative and upward as positive.

(1)

Since the ball is travelling horizontally at the center of the hoop, so the center of the hoop is the top most point in the motion of ball.

At this point the vertical component of velocity of ball is zero.

Now, apply kinematic equation of motion in vertical direction between the point of launch and the center of the hoop-

vy=uy-gt0=v0sinθ-gtt=12×sin429.81t=0.818 s

where,
vy is vertical component of final velocity at top most pointuy is vertical component of initial velocity

(2)

Height of the center of hoop from the point of launch of ball is-

s=uyt-12gt2s=v0sinθt - 12gt2
s=(12sin42×0.818) - 12(9.81)(0.818)2
 s=3.28 m

Therefore, height of center of loop from the ground is given by-

ymax=y0+s=1.8+3.28=5.08 m

(3)

Apply kinematic equation of motion in vertical direction between point of launch and the floor.

y=y0+uyt'+12gt'2y=y0+v0sinθt'+12gt'212(9.81)t'2+12sin42t'-1.8=0

Solving this quadratic equation using quadratic formula-

t'=-12sin42±(12sin42)2-4(9.812)(-1.8)2×9.812t'=0.199 s

Now,
Horizontal distance moved by ball in time t' is equal to-

x=v0cos42×t'x=12cos42×0.199x=1.77 m
