Explanation / Answer

(b)Given

v = 18 km/h = 5 m/s

theta = 18 deg ; R = 84 m

we know that

v = sqrt {rg[sin(theta) + us cos(thets)]/[cos(theta) - us sin(theta)]}

or

v^2 = {rg[sin(theta) + us cos(thets)]/[cos(theta) - us sin(theta)]}

5^2 = 84 x 9.8 (sin18 + us cos18)/(cos18 - us sin18)

25/84 x 9.8 = (0.31 - us 0.95)/(0.95 - us 0.31)

0.03 (0.95 - us 0.31) = (0.31 - us 0.95)

0.0285 - us 0.0093 = 0.31 - us 0.95

us (-0.0093 + 0.95) = 0.31 - 0.0285 = 0.2815

us = 0.2815/0.9407 = 0.299

Hence, us = 0.299
