Answer:

[tex]38.3\ \text{m/s}[/tex]

[tex]32.14\ \text{m/s}[/tex]

6.55 seconds

[tex]52.65\ \text{m}[/tex]

[tex]254.84\ \text{m}[/tex]

Explanation:

u = Initial velocity of rock = 50 m/s

[tex]\theta[/tex] = Angle of throw = [tex]40^{\circ}[/tex]

g = Acceleration due to gravity = [tex]9.81\ \text{m/s}^2[/tex]

Horizontal component is given by

[tex]u_x=u\cos\theta\\\Rightarrow u_x=50\times \cos40^{\circ}\\\Rightarrow u_x=38.3\ \text{m/s}[/tex]

The horizontal component of the velocity is [tex]38.3\ \text{m/s}[/tex]

Vertical component is given by

[tex]u_y=u\sin\theta\\\Rightarrow u_y=50\times \sin40^{\circ}\\\Rightarrow u_y=32.14\ \text{m/s}[/tex]

The horizontal component of the velocity is [tex]32.14\ \text{m/s}[/tex]

Time of flight is given by

[tex]t=\dfrac{2u\sin\theta}{g}\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{2\times 50\sin40^{\circ}}{9.81}\\\Rightarrow t=6.55\ \text{s}[/tex]

The hang time of the rock is 6.55 seconds

Maximum height is given by

[tex]h=\dfrac{u^2\sin^2\theta}{2g}\\\Rightarrow h=\dfrac{50^2\sin^240^{\circ}}{2\times 9.81}\\\Rightarrow h=52.65\ \text{m}[/tex]

Maximum height is [tex]52.65\ \text{m}[/tex]

Range is given by

[tex]d=\dfrac{u^2\sin2\theta}{g}\\\Rightarrow d=\dfrac{50^2\sin(2\times40)^{\circ}}{9.81}\\\Rightarrow d=254.84\ \text{m}[/tex]

The range is [tex]254.84\ \text{m}[/tex]
