Question

A ball is kicked from a location (8, 0, -6) (on the ground) with initial velocity (-8, 19, -4) m/s. The ball's speed is low enough that air resistance is negligible. (a) What is the velocity of the ball 0.4 seconds after being kicked? (Use the Momentum Principle!) v vector = m/s (b) In this situation (constant force), which velocity will give the most accurate value for the location of the ball 0.4 seconds after it is kicked? the initial velocity of the ball the final velocity of the ball the arithmetic average of the initial and final velocities (c) What is the average velocity of the ball over this time interval? v vector _avg = m/s)(d) Use the average velocity to find the location of the ball 0.4 seconds after being kicked. r vector = m Now consider a different time interval: the interval between the initial kick and the moment when the ball reaches its highest point. We want to find how long it takes for the ball to reach this point, and how high the ball goes. (e) What is the y-component of the ball's velocity at the instant when the ball reaches its highest point (the end of this time interval)? v_yf = m/s (f) Fill in the missing numbers in the equation below (update form of the Momentum principle: mv_yf = mv_yf + F_net, y Delta t). m - + - mg Delta t (g) How long does ft take for the ball to reach its highest point? Delta t = s (b) Knowing this time, first find the y-component of the average velocity during this time interval, then use if to find the maximum height attained by the ball. y_max = m

Explanation / Answer

a) Since, gravitational force acts only in y-direction, x and z components of velocity will remain same.

vy = uy - gt = 18 - (9.8 x 0.2) = 16.04 m/s

b) The arithmetic average of initial and final velocities.

c) For average velocity: vy = (16.04 + 18) /2 = 17.02 m/s

So, average velocity, vavg = (-11, 17.02, -2)

d) Position = (6,0,-6) + 0.2(-11, 17.02, -2) = (3.8, 3.404, -6.4)
