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 from v_x*t=(displacement in x). Use the last two equation to eliminate t, which is not required for this problem, which give another equation that involves v_y and v_x. ΑΣφ ? m/s Request Answer Submit Provide Feedback Next

Sheena can row a boat at 3.20 mi/h in still water. She needs to cross a river that is 1.20 mi wide with a current flowing at 1.80 mi/h. Not having her calculator ready, she guesses that to go straight across, she should head upstream at an angle of 25.0° from the direction straight across the river. a.)What is her speed with respect to the starting point on the bank? b.)How long does it take her to cross the river?

I throw a ball to my dog at h = 1.8 m above the ground, with initial velocity v0 = 10.25 m/s at an angle θ = 31° above horizontal. Assume the ballencounters no air resistance, and use a Cartesian coordinate system with the origin located at the ball's initial position.a. My dog jumps up in the air and catches the ball at the same height that Ithrew it. Create an expression for the time, tf, the ball is in the air in terms of v0, θ, g, and h. b. Calculate the horizontal distance, d in meters, between me and my dog

In the latest Indian Jones film, Indy is supposed to throw a grenade from his car, which is going 99.0 km/h , to his enemy's car, which is going 115 km/h . The enemy's car is 17.0 m in front of the Indy's when he lets go of the grenade. A If Indy throws the grenade so its initial velocity relative to him is at an angle of 45 ∘ above the horizontal, what should the magnitude of the initial velocity be? The cars are both traveling in the same direction on a level road. You can ignore air resistance. B Find the magnitude of the velocity relative to the earth.
