Projectile Motion in Gravity 34

V0=150m/s @ 30o 5m V0=150 cos30 i + 150 sin30 j

acceleration = -10m/s2 due to force of gravity Initial Data vertical direction acceleration = -10m/s2 due to force of gravity initial velocity = 150 sin 30 m/s initial vertical position y=0 horizontal direction acceleration = 0 m/s2 initial velocity = 150 cos 30 m/s initial horizontal position x=0

At maximum height Vy=0 Therefore: 0 = -10t + 150 sin 30 thus t = (150 sin 30 / 10) s maximum height: h = (1/2)(-10) (150 sin 30 / 10)2 + (150 sin 30) (150 sin 30 / 10) = (1/2) (150 sin 30 / 10)2 m

Final vertical position: y =-5 Hence using displacement equation in vertical direction we can get time it takes to drop from max height to this vertical position -5- (1/2) (150 sin 30 / 10)2 = (1/2)(-10)t2drop Notice that initial vertical velocity is now 0 m/s as this is vel. At max. height.

and we have these times from the preceding slides. Now we can find the range, which is the sum of the horizontal distance traveled while the object attains max. height (d1) and the horizontal distance traveled while the object drops from this height to y=-5 m, (d2). d1= (150 cos 30)tmax height d2 = (150 cos 30)tdrop and we have these times from the preceding slides.
