Question

Steel ball 1 is released from rest at the same time steel ball 2 is given a horizontal kick. The dots represent the locations of the two balls at t=0,1,2,3 and 4 s. The balls continue to fall after t=4 s. Evaluate each of the following statements.

(Less than, Greater than, or Equal to for each of the following)
The magnitude of the vertical component of the velocity of ball 2 at point H is _______ the magnitude of the vertical component of the velocity of ball 1 at point F.
The magnitude of the horizontal component of the velocity of ball 1 at point F is _______ the magnitude of the horizontal component of the velocity of ball 2 at point E.
The speed of ball 1 at point B is _______ the speed of ball 2 at point H.
The magnitude of the horizontal component of the velocity of ball 2 at point A is _______ the magnitude of the horizontal component of the velocity of ball 2 at point E.
The magnitude of the vertical component of the velocity of ball 1 at point B is _______ the magnitude of the vertical component of the velocity of ball 2 at point H.

Explanation / Answer

Greater than

equal to

Greater than

Less than

The same as

Note, for part three : for ball 2 you add the horizontal and vertical components and measure the resultant
which is greater than the vertical only component of ball 1
