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}

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.

A ball is launched from the ground at an angle of 65∘ above the horizontal with a velocity of 22m/s. The ball hits the ground some distance away at a given speed, and bounces back up. When it does so the amplitude of both the x and y components of its velocity are half what they were. This repeats with the ball losing half of it’s speed on each bounce. a) Sketch the problem. b) Write the equation of motion...

An archer shoots an arrow at an angle 20◦ above the horizontal. How far from the archer does the arrow hit the ground if it is shot with a speed of 50 m/s from 1.75m above ground? Hint: Start with setting up your xy coordinates system appropriately. Extra Practice: An archer standing on a 15◦ slope shoots an arrow 20◦ above the horizontal. How far down the slope does the arrow hit if it is shot with a speed of...
