An arrow is shot from a height of 1.4 m toward a cliff of height H. It is shot with a velocity of 25 m/s at an angle of 60° above the horizontal. It lands on the top edge of the cliff 3.4s later (a). What is the height of the cliff? (b). What is the max height reached by the arrow along its trajectory? #3.8
(a) 18.4 (b) 25.3 (an attempt at an explanation) Formulas to use: ---- For (a) ---- Since we're going to be working on the Y axis for the final H, we almost have everything for the formula except Ay and Voy. Ay will be our gravity, while we need to apply some trig to the velocity. Overall velocity = 25 m/s \\ As we are working with the Y axis, we will want to use sine (remember SohCahToa!) Vy = 25*Sin(60) Ay = -9.8 T = 3.4 Yo = 1.4 \\ We now want to plug all of this into the first formula! y =…

A very strong, but inept, shot putter puts the shot straight up with an initial velocity of 10.0 m/s. How long does he have to get out of the way if the shot was released at a height of 2.20 m, and he is 1.70 m tall (he could end up shorter)?
Answer: 2.09s (an attempt at an explanation) Formulas to use: \\ With all the units we have, we can directly use the first formula: Yf = 1.7 Yi = 2.2 Ay = -9.8 Viy = 10 T = what we're trying to find. \\ Plugged in, it should look like this: 1.7 = 2.2 + 10(t) + (1/2)(-9.8)(t^2) 0 = 2.2-1.7 + 10t -4.9t^2 \\ As we can see here, we can actually apply the quadratic formula so long as we don't mix up our variables. To do this, we could either use it as is (remembering that A starts from the right as…

A projectile is launched at ground level with an initial speed of 48.0 m/s at an angle of 25.0° above the horizontal. It strikes a target above the ground 2.90 seconds later. What are the x and y distances from where the projectile was launched to where it lands? Question #: 3.6
x = 126.2 y = 17.6 (an attempt at an explanation) This question must be broken up into two parts between the X and Y axis. -- For X -- We know our initial velocity is 48 m/s, however, this is the total velocity from both the Y and X axis. Since we are given the reference angle, we can use Cosine to figure out the X component of this initial velocity. Thusly: Vox = 48cos(25) T = 2.9 Xo = 0 (this is our starting point) Ax = 0 (On the X axis, the projectile will not be accelerating any further - o…

A 4.85 ✕ 105 kg rocket is accelerating straight up. Its engines produce 1.650 ✕ 107 N of thrust, and air resistance is 4.60 ✕ 106 N. What is the rocket's acceleration (in m/s2)? (Enter the magnitude.) Simplified: 485,000kg weight 16,500,000 thrust (five zeros) 4,600,000 air resistance (five zeros) Question #: 4.7
Answer: 14.7 On the surface, it looks like we have everything we need for F = MA. However, this is meant to TRICK YOU! They said air resistance only, NOT including gravity! As we are going straight up, we'll need to account for the weight from gravity! With this, use W = MG to find the weight, then subtract the thrust with this w. Once you have this, continue as normal. W=MG --> 485,000 (9.8) --> W = 4,753,000 F - Friction - Weight = MA 16,500,000 - 4,600,000 - 4,753,000 = 485,000A 7,147,000/48…

Take the size across of the drop to be 8 mm, the density to be 1.00 ✕ 103 kg/m3, and the surface area to be 𝜋r2. (Assume the density of air is 1.21 kg/m3.) (a) in the absence of air drag (b) with airdrag NOTE: Coefficient of a sphere is 0.45. #5.10
(a) 230 m/s (b) 14 m/s (an attempt at an explanation) -- For (a) -- This part is super simple as we don't actually need to use any of the formulas from this chapter. Instead, we will need to use the following from chapter 3/4: With this, the only thing we need to do now is to convert one unit then input into the formula. 2.7km = 2,700 m ay = -9.8 Vfy^2 = 0^2 + 2 (-9.8) (-2,700) <-- negative just so that we can still root afterwards.

What is the ideal banking angle (in degrees) for a gentle turn of 1.05 km radius on a highway with a 120 km/h speed limit (about 75 mi/h), assuming everyone travels at the limit? DANGER: my calculator kept getting it wrong. Don't do, for example, v^2/100*8. Instead, do vfinal/800 --> this is a sure-fire way of getting the right answer. Question #: 6.7
Answer: 6.16 (an attempt at an explanation) Other than a formula, this is mainly a unit conversion question. The unit we want is m or m/s. r = 1.05 km (convert KM to M) * 1000m r = 1050 meters v = 120 km/h (convert to m/s) * 1000m / 3600s (in an hour) v = ~33.33 m/s Once converted, we'll want to use the following formula: tan(theta) = (v^2)/rg plug this stuff in, and we're almost there! tan(theta) = (33.33^2)/1050(9.8) tan(theta) = 1110.8889/10290 tan(theta) = ~0.108 then we use inverse tangent…

The cannon ball has a mass of 67.0 kg and its horizontal component of velocity is 9.00 m/s when the 65.0 kg performer catches it. If the performer is on nearly frictionless roller skates, what is his recoil velocity in meters per second? #8.10 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cR92AwexbBg
Answer: 4.57 m/s (an attempt at an explanation) This may seem daunting, but it is a super easy plug n' play question with one funky aspect. Here's the steps: We will have to use the following formula: \\ With this, we have our variables: M1 = 67 V1i = 9 M2 = 65 V2i = 0 <-- This is because we're assuming the performer is stationary! V2f and V1f = What we are trying to find. \\ With this first part done, we can now plug stuff in, which should look like: (67)(9) + (65)(0) = (67)V1f + (65)V2f \\ Th…

What is the final velocity (in m/s) of a hoop that rolls without slipping down a 3.50-m-high hill, starting from rest? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r1-gKqMM8AA&t= #10.5
Answer: 5.86 (an attempt at an explanation) BIG HEADS UP: There are two (or one and a half) ways to solve this problem. Either we can solve it normally, or cheese through it completely. If you want the cheese, simply use the following formula: Final Velocity = sqroot(9.8*height) If you only memorize this "formula", you might not be able to answer the first question on the quiz (what formula to use) since this is the end result of a lot of algebra and physics theory.

A ball with an initial velocity of 7.33 m/s rolls up a hill without slipping. (a) Treating the ball as a spherical shell, calculate the vertical height (in m) it reaches. (b) Repeat the calculation (in m) for the same ball if it slides up the hill without rolling. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0_FbQtzuLSU #10.6
(a) 4.57 (b) 2.74 (an attempt at an explanation) ---- For (a) ---- The very first thing we want to do is use the following formula. I'm not entirely sure how we got there, but it is simple to memorize and relatively similar to chapter 7 (plz watch the video to fully understand): \\ After this, we want to break the KE and PE down into their components (same as from Quiz 2 and Chapter 7). The only difference being KEri having it's own special thing (with "I" and "Omega"). \\ Quick note, after thi…
A ball with an initial velocity of 8.11 m/s rolls up a hill without slipping. (a) Treating the ball as a spherical shell, calculate the vertical height (in m) it reaches.

(a) What force (in N) must be exerted by the wind to support a 2.40 kg chicken in the position shown in the figure? (Assume r⊥ = 21.0 cm and r'⊥ = 8.20 cm.) (b) What is the ratio of this force to the chicken's weight? (c) Does this support the contention that the chicken has a relatively stable construction? (Yes or No?) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gjlPAWNcFwI&t= #9.6
(a) 9.18N (b) 0.39 (c) Yes (an attempt at an explanation) NOTE: I don't know what the hecc I am doing, nor do I entirely know the theory behind this. If you want a good explanation please review the video and visit office hours. ---- For (a) ---- This is all gonna be guesses (not even educated guesses, just shots in the dark), but here goes: \\ We wan't to start with this formula: \\ We now want to break down our ∑τ into it's components. There are two main forces at play: the chickens weight an…
