Question

An inflatable life raft is released from an air plane at 600 m altitude, in level flight, with an air speed of 40 m/s in the horizontal direction. What is the horizontal distance from the release point does the raft strike the water? A rock is launched with an initial velocity of 63 m/s at an angle of 47 degrees above the horizontal at time t0. At what time(t) does the projectile to reach its maximum height?

Step 1

Given: Initial vertical height (h) = 600 m Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^2 Using the formula: h = 0.5 * g * t^2 600 = 0.5 * 9.8 * t^2 t^2 = 600 / (0.5 * 9.8) t^2 = 122.45 t = sqrt(122.45) t ≈ 11.06 seconds Show more…
