Help please
17) A student stands at the edge of a cliff and throws a stone horizontally over the edge with a speed of
vi = 19.0 m/s. The cliff is h = 58.1 m above a body of water as shown in the figure below.
(a) What are the coordinates of the initial position of the stone?
(b) What are the components of the initial velocity of the stone?
(c) What is the appropriate analysis model for the vertical motion of the stone? Choose one of the answers below
-particle under constant speed
-particle under constant, nonzero acceleration
(d) What is the appropriate analysis model for the horizontal motion of the stone? Choose one of the answers below
- particle under constant, nonzero acceleration
-particle under constant speed
(e) Write symbolic equations for the x and y components of the velocity of the stone as a function of time. (Use the following as necessary: vix, g, and t. Indicate the direction of the velocity with the sign of your answer.)
= ?
= ?
(f) Write symbolic equations for the position of the stone as a function of time. (Use the following as necessary: vix, g, and t. Indicate the direction of the displacement with the sign of your answer.)
= ?
=?
(g) How long after being released does the stone strike the water below the cliff?
s
(h) With what speed and angle of impact does the stone land?
Explanation / Answer
DO NOT POST THESE MANY QUESTIONS AT ONCE....PLEASE FOLLOW RULES.
(a) xi = 0, yi = 58.1 m
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(b) vix = 19 m/s
viy = 0 m/s
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(c) path will be parabola, therefore model will be particle under constant, nonzero acceleration
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(d)
(e) vx = vix
vy = ayt = -gt
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(f) xf = vixt = 19t
yf = yi - 1/2gt2 = 58.1 - 4.9t2
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(g) yf = yi - 1/2gt2
0 = 58.1 - 4.9t2
t = 3.443 sec
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(h) vx = 19
vy = -33.74 m/s
v = sqrt (192 + 33.742)
v = 38.7 m/s
angle = tan-1 (33.74 / 19) = 60.6o
