A student solving a physics problem for the range of a projectile has obtained the expression r= v20sin(2θ)g where v0=37.2meter/second, θ=14.1∘, and g=9.80meter/second2. use your calculator to evaluate r.

Respuesta :

Formula of range is given by

[tex]R = \frac{v_o^2 sin2\theta}{g}[/tex]

here given that

[tex]v_0=37.2m/s[/tex]

θ=14.1∘

[tex]g=9.80m/s^2[/tex]

now by above equation

[tex]R = \frac{37.2^2 sin2*14.1}{9.80}[/tex]

R = 66.7 m

so range will be 66.1 m

The range of a projectile is about 66.7 m

Further explanation

Acceleration is rate of change of velocity.

[tex]\boxed {a = \frac{v - u}{t} }[/tex]

[tex]\boxed {d = \frac{v + u}{2}~t }[/tex]

where:

a = acceleration ( m/s² )

v = final velocity ( m/s )

u = initial velocity ( m/s )

t = time taken ( s )

d = distance ( m )

Let's recall Range of Projectile formula as follows:

[tex]\boxed{ R = \frac{ v_o^2 \sin 2\theta}{g} }[/tex]

where:

R = range of projectile ( m )

v₀ = initial speed of projectile ( m/s )

θ = angle of projection

g = gravitational acceleration ( m/s² )

Let us now tackle the problem!

[tex]\texttt{ }[/tex]

Given:

initial speed of projectile = v₀ = 37.2 m/s

angle of projection = θ = 14.1°

gravitational acceleration = g = 9.80 m/s²

Asked:

the range of a projectile = R = ?

Solution:

[tex]R = \frac{ v_o^2 \sin 2\theta}{g}[/tex]

[tex]R = \frac{ 37.2^2 \sin 2 (14.1^o)}{9.80}[/tex]

[tex]\boxed {R = 66.7 \texttt{ m}}[/tex]

[tex]\texttt{ }[/tex]

The range of a projectile is about 66.7 m
