A Ball Was Thrown From The Ground At A Speed Of 20 M/S At 30 Deg. Determine The Horizontal And Vertical Displacements Traveled By The Ball At 1.25 S.

A ball was thrown from the ground at a speed of 20 m/s at 30 deg. Determine the horizontal and vertical displacements traveled by the ball at 1.25 s.

Answer:

The horizontal and vertical displacements travelled are approximately at x = 12 m and y = -32.

Explanation:

Given:

V_{0} = 20 m/s

a = 9.81 \frac{m}{s^{2}}

θ = 30°

t = 1.25 s

Formula:

For horizontal x-component (V_{0x}): V_{0}cosθ

For vertical y-component (V_{0y}): V_{0}sinθ

---------------------------------------------------------

For horizontal displacement (x): x = V_{0x}t + \frac{1}{2}a_{x} t^{2}

For vertical displacement (y): y = V_{0y}t - \frac{1}{2}a_{y} t^{2}

Solution:

Horizontal x-component: (20 m/s)(cos 30°)

V_{0x} = 3.085028998 m/s

Vertical y-component: (20 m/s)(sin 30°)

V_{0y} = -19.76063248 m/s

-----------------------------------------------------------

Horizontal displacement:

x = V_{0x}t + \frac{1}{2}a_{x} t^{2}

x = (3.085028998 m/s)(1.25 s) + \frac{1}{2}(9.81 \frac{m}{s^{2}})(1.25 s)^{2}

x = 11.52034875 m

x ≈ 12 m (**NOTE: Positive means to the right.)

Vertical displacement:

y = V_{0y}t - \frac{1}{2}a_{y} t^{2}

y = (-19.76063248 m/s)(1.25 s) - \frac{1}{2}(9.81 \frac{m}{s^{2}})(1.25 s)^{2}

y = -32.3648531 m

y ≈ -32 m (**NOTE: Negative means going down.)
