A WCU student, who is snowboarding at Cataloochee, slides
horizontally off the ledge of snowbank that is 1.25 meters above
the ground. When she leaves the ledge, she is initially
moving horizontally at 7.50 m/s. Ignore air friction, as usual.
- Make a table showing values of x, y, vx,
vy, and
vtotal from the beginning (t =
0) to end (you’ll have to figure out tfinal) of her path
for every 0.0200 seconds. (Note that she will hit the ground, y =
0, at the end.)
- Plot a graph of the snowboarder’s position during this whole
time. (That is, plot her y vs. x position
on one single graph.)
