Towns A and B in Figure P3.49 are 80.0 km apart. A couple arranges to drive from town A and meet a couple driving from town B at the lake, L. The two couples leave simultaneously and drive for 2.50 h in the directions shown. Car 1 has a speed of 90.0 km/h. If the cars arrive simultaneously at the lake, what is the speed of car 2?
Give all a, b and c right solutions.
A bullet was fired at a certain point A at an angle of 90 o from an inclined surface with slope of 5 vertical and 12 horizontal, and hit the surface at a distance of 70 m from point A measured along the inclined surface.
a. What is the initial velocity(in m/s)?
b. What is the maximum height (in m) reached by the bullet?
c. What is the time (in sec) required for the bullet to hit the inclined plane?
A golfer hits a ball with an angle of 53 degrees at a velocity of 50m/s. The horizontal component of the velocity is 30m/s and the vertical component of the velocity is 40m/s. Unfortunately she hits too hard and it JUST goes over the edge of the cliff and lands on the beach below.
Draw a sketch of the situation to assist your reasoning (no need to submit the sketch)
a) For how many seconds does the ball travel upwards (i.e. until it reaches the highest point)?
b) What is the downward component of the ball’s velocity when it disappears from her view?
c) How far away from the golfer is the ball when it disappears from her view?
d) If the ball falls over the cliff for another 4 seconds before reaching the beach, how high is the cliff?
