Suppose a rescue airplane drops a relief package while it is moving with a constant horizontal speed at an elevated height. Assuming that air resistance is negligible, where will the relief package land relative to the plane? a. below the plane and behind it. b. directly below the plane c. below the plane and ahead of it
1. Consider these diagrams in answering the following questions. Which diagram (if any) might represent ... a. ... the initial horizontal velocity? b. ... the initial vertical velocity? c. ... the horizontal acceleration? d. ... the vertical acceleration? e. ... the net force? The initial horizontal velocity is A (It's the only horizontal vector). The initial vertical velocity could be B (if projected down) or C (if projected upward). None of these; there is no horizontal acceleration. The vertical acceleration is B; it is always downwards. The net force on a projectile is B (there is only one force - gravity; and it is downwards).
Projectile Motion Equations D y = vit + ½(a)(t)2 vf = vi + (a)(t) vf2 = vi2 + 2(a)(D)
Trig Functions Sinq = opp./hyp. Cosq = adj./hyp. Tanq = opp./adj.
Type 1 Problems A soccer ball is kicked horizontally off a 22.0-meter high hill and lands a distance of 35.0 meters from the edge of the hill. Determine the initial horizontal velocity of the soccer ball.
What You Know... Now Pick your Equations... y = viy • t + 0.5 • ay • t2 & x = vix • t + 0.5 • ax • t2

Finding the Initial Velocity Components Consider a projectile launched with an initial velocity of 50 m/s at an angle of 60 degrees above the horizontal……
Examples 1) A water balloon is launched with a speed of 40 m/s at an angle of 60 degrees to the horizontal. 2) A motorcycle stunt person traveling 70 mi/hr jumps off a ramp at an angle of 35 degrees to the horizontal. 3) A springboard diver jumps with a velocity of 10 m/s at an angle of 80 degrees to the horizontal.
Solutions 1) 2) 3) 70mi/hr 10m/s 40m/s 60 35 80 cos (60 deg) = vx / (40 m/s) vx = 40 m/s • cos (60 deg) = 20.0 m/s cos (80 deg) = vx / (10 m/s) vx = 10 m/s • cos (80 deg) = 1.7 m/s cos (35 deg) = vx / (70 mi/hr) vx = 70 mi/hr • cos (35 deg) = 57.3 mi/hr sin (80 deg) = vy / (10 m/s) vy = 10 m/s • sin (80 deg) = 9.8 m/s sin (60 deg) = vy / (40 m/s) vy = 40 m/s • sin (60 deg) = 34.6 m/s sin (35 deg) = vy / (70 mi/hr) vy = 70 mi/hr • sin (35 deg) = 40.1 mi/hr

If she tilts her heard back, and expels the contents of her stomach at 5m/s, 36.9° above horizontal, how far from her feet (what is the range) does the partially digested food land? 36.9° 5m/s

Velocity Componets vix = 25 m/s•cos(45 deg) vix = 17.7 m/s 25m/s Vif viy = 25 m/s•sin(45 deg) viy = 17.7 m/s 45° Vix
Lists X DX= ? Vi= 17.77 Vf= 17.77 a=0 Y DY=? Vi=17.77 Vf=-17.77 a=-9.8 *As indicated in the table, the final x-velocity (vfx) is the same as the initial x-velocity (vix). This is due to the fact that the horizontal velocity of a projectile is constant; there is no horizontal acceleration. The table also indicates that the final y-velocity (vfy) has the same magnitude and the opposite direction as the initial y-velocity (viy). This is due to the symmetrical nature of a projectile's trajectory.
Equation vfy = viy + ay*t -17.7 m/s = 17.7 m/s + (-9.8 m/s/s)•t 3.61 s = t
