A shot putter threw a shot at an angle of 43o above the horizontal from a height of 2.0 m above the ground. The shot traveled 19.0 m horizontally from the launch position. (a) What was the initial speed of the shot when it left the shot putter’s hand? (b) How long was the shot in the air? {13.0 m/s, 2.0 s}

Solutions

Expert Solution

The motion of the shot is projectile motion.Here we consider the horizontal and vertical components of velocities and using given values we can show required velocity and time.
