Question

1.

A putting green islocated 170 feet horizontally and 50 feet vertically from the tee. What must be the magnitude and direction of the initial velocity if a ball is to strike the green at this location after a time of 3.6 seconds?

Initial Velocity Magnitude = ___ [Num]ft/s

Initial Velocity Angle = ____ [Num]degrees

2.

An object is projected horiztonally at 14 m/s. At the same time, another object loacated 7 meters down range is dropped from rest. When will the two objects collide?

Time = _____[Num] _____[Units]

3.

A golf ball leaves the tee with a velocity of 60 ft/s at 35 degrees. If it lands on a green located 7 feet higher than the tee, what was the time of flight, and what was the horiztonal distance to the green?

Time = _____[Num] ____[Units]

Distance = ____ [Num] ____[Units]

4.

Explanation / Answer


vox = x/T = 50/3.6 = 13.89 ft/s

y = voy*T + 0.5*T^2


170 = voy*3.6 - 0.5*9.8*3.6*3.6

voy = 64.86 ft/s


vo = sqrt(vox^2+voy^2) = 66.33 ft/s


angle = tan^-1(voy/vox ) = 78 degrees

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

2)


x = vx*T

T = x/Vx = 0.5 s

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

3) y = voy*T + 0.5*g*T^2

7 = 60*sin35*T - 0.5*9.8*T^2


7 = 34.41T - 4.9T^2


T = 0.21s


x = vox*T = 60*cos35*T = 49.19*0.21 = 10.33 ft


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


43 mph = 19.22m/s

4) R = vo^2*sin2theta/g = (19.22*19.22*sin78)/9.8 = 36.87 m


R = 40.32 yard <-----asnwer

5)


H = voy^2/2g = (31*sin55)^2/(2*9.8) = 32.9 m

Range R = vo^2*sin(2*theta)/g


R = (31*31*sin110)/9.8 = 92.15 m
