Question

#6) A medieval archer is preparing for battle and practicing his long range shot from a particular bluff that is near a castle with moat around it. The magnitude of the initial velocity of the arrow is 67.0 m/s upon release from the long bow and the archer releases his arrow when the angle of his bow is 32.0° above the horizon. (A) What is the total time the arrow is in the air? Equations first, algebra, numbers last. Report answer to three sig figs. (B) What is the maximum horizontal distance the arrow can travel under the conditions of part (A)? Equations first, algebra, numbers last. Report answer to three sig figs.

Step 1

To do this, we can use the vertical motion of the arrow. We know the initial velocity and angle, so we can find the vertical component of the initial velocity: $v_{0y} = v_0 \sin(\theta)$ $v_{0y} = 67.0 \text{ m/s} \times \sin(32.0^\circ)$ $v_{0y} = 35.6 \text{ Show more…

A medieval archer is preparing for battle and practicing his long-range shot from a particular bluff that is near a castle with a moat around it. The magnitude of the initial velocity of the arrow is 67.0 m/s upon release from the longbow, and the archer releases his arrow when the angle of his bow is 32.0° above the horizon. (A) What is the total time the arrow is in the air? Equations first, algebra next, numbers last. Report the answer to three significant figures. (B) What is the maximum horizontal distance the arrow can travel under the conditions of part (A)? Equations first, algebra next, numbers last. Report the answer to three significant figures.
