Question

Please with answers and a small  explanation


In the following problem, the orgin of the coordinate system is located at the edge of the cliff.


A sled rides off the edge of a cliff, Just at the edge it's velocity is horizontal and has a magnitude of 15 m/s. Using a coordinate system (x,y)


Find the sled's horizontal position (x coordinate) at 0.7 s after leaving the edge

A -- 10.5 m

B -- 2.4 m

C -- 5.25 m

D -- -2.4 m


Find the sled's vertical position (y coordinate) at 0.7 s after leaving the edge


A -- 10.5 m

B -- -2.4 m

C -- -5.25 m

D -- 2.4 m


Find the sled's speed at 0.7 s after leaving the edge


A.  15 m/s

B. - 6.86 m/s

C.  272.06 m/s

D.  16.49 m/s


Find the sled's acceleration at 0.7 s ater leaving the edge


A.  0 m/s

B.  -15 m/s^2

C. -9.8 m/s^2 j

D. -9.8 m/s^2 i

Explanation / Answer

1)

s= ut = 15*.7 = 10.5 m

2)

s = .5*9.8*.7^2 = 2.401 m


3)

vx = 15 [doesnt change as theres no acceleration ]

vy = 0 + 9.8*.7 = 6.86

speed = sqrt(15^2 + 6.86^2) = 16.5 m/s


4)

its acceleration is = 9.8 m^2/s [doesnt change]
