Consider a two-dimensional projectile motion problem involving a ball starting and ending at the same height. the projectile leaves the ground with an initial velocity of 10 m/s at some angle theta with the horizontal, (a) what value of the angle theta (in degrees) makes the range of the projectile maximum? explain, (b) what is the range at this angle? (c) how long does it take for the ball to reach maximum height? (d) what is the maximum height?

Respuesta :

The range of the projectile is maximum at angle 45°, the range is 10.2m,  the time to reach the maximum height is 0.72 s and the maximum height is 2.6 m

What is a Projectile ?

The stone, or object or anything projected in a trajectory path is known as a projectile.

In the given two-dimensional projectile motion problem involving a ball starting and ending at the same height. the projectile leaves the ground with an initial velocity of 10 m/s at some angle Ф with the horizontal,

(a) The value of the angle Ф (in degrees) which will makes the range of the projectile maximum is angle 45° because Range = u²sin2Ф ÷ g

At Ф = 45

Range = u²sin90° ÷ g

where sin 90 = 1

So, Range = u² / g which is the maximum range.

(b) The range at this angle will be

Range = 10² ÷ 9.8

Range = 100 / 9.8

Range = 10.2 m

(c) To calculate how long it takes the ball to reach maximum height, we will use the formula

t = usinФ ÷ g

t = 10 sin 45 ÷ 9.8

t = 0.72s

(d) The maximum height will be

H = u²sin²Ф ÷ 2g

H = 10²(sin45)² ÷ 2 × 9.8

H = 100 × 0.5 ÷ 19.6

H = 50 ÷ 19.6

H = 2.55 m

Therefore, the range of the projectile is maximum at angle 45°, the range is 10.2m,  the time to reach the maximum height is 0.72 s and the maximum height is 2.6 m
