Question

An artillery shell is launched on a flat, horizontal field at an angle of α = 34.8° with respect to the horizontal and with an initial speed of v₀ = 302 m/s. What is the horizontal velocity of the shell after 22.28 s of flight? (Neglect air friction. Use the coordinate system where the x-axis is horizontal and points to the right, and the y-axis is vertical and points up.) What is the vertical velocity of the shell at this moment?

Step 1

28 seconds. Given: Initial speed, v₀ = 302 m/s Projection angle, α = 34.8° Time, t = 22.28 s Horizontal component of velocity, Vx = v₀ * cos(α) Substitute the values: Vx = 302 * cos(34.8°) Vx ≈ 302 * 0.829 Vx ≈ 250.46 m/s Show more…
